I agree it is tactless. If most people think it's rude to point out how loud someone is or to tell someon to shut up, then why is it okay to tell someone else that they need to talk? I don't think people mean to be rude when they ask this, but it bothers me when they do this when they just met...

This happens to me all the time. People I just met and even complete strangers will always point out how quiet I am. It always happens when I least expect it and when I am making an effort to be more talkative. A lot of times when I am actually saying something, these same people are not even...

I agree with Veruca. Was this the first time you donated your hair? Is it something you'd do again?

I first received treatment for depression when I was about 14. I went to a psychiatrist and was put on an antidepressant. I just wanted someone to talk to

I usually am socially awkward, especially if people notice me or if I have to talk about myself. One on one conversations and being in smaller groups bother me because I'm afraid of boring people or saying something stupid. A lot of times when the attention is on me, I blush and just freeze up...

I'd say I'm more alone than lonely. I actually enjoy being by myself for the most part. It's when I feel the most content and comfortable with myself, but as much as I hate to admit, I am pretty lonely. I'm afraid if I don't do something about it now, I'll die alone.

Sometimes I think I have avoidant personality disorder.

Just took it and it says I'm an ISTJ. I've taken the Myers-Briggs test many times since I was a teen and my type is never the same. Being an introvert has stayed the same, but the others are usually different.

I'm kind of afraid of getting too close to someone, but afraid of being completely alone.

That's me.

Has anyone here ever had a lucid dream? What was it like? I've never had one, but kind of want to. For those who have, how do you do it?

Haven't read a book in such a long time, but my cousin just got me The Introvert's Way by Sophia Dembling. I think I'm going to start reading today.

26 and never even been kissed.

I wish I was more articulate. Usually when someone tries to speak to me, especially when I don't expect it, I get tongue-tied or my mind goes blank. I thought going on a message board would help, but I'm even having a hard time with that.

I'm an Aquarius. Even though I don't really believe in astrology, I think there are some things about my sign that are true about me like being independent, detached, stubborn.

I also had a very hard time picking out a major in college too. I felt like I had to finish my bachelor's in 4 years, so I picked my major (psychology) kind of randomly. I thought I would figure things out once I was out of college, but I became even more lost. I like to think that it's never...

Thank you all for being so welcoming. I usually read message boards and blogs, but never post because I either don't have anything to say or I'm afraid of being attacked. I think I'll stick around here because I need to change and I feel like most people don't really understand what being shy is...

I'm like this as well. I'm kind of zoned out most of the time so I can deal with being shy. A lot of times if someone is saying something to me I either assume they're talking to someone else or I didn't know they said anything at all. Also, I usually avoid eye contact with most people because...
