I have a reputation for being shy

Question

i am shy and at school everyone just knows me for being too quiet and shy. I want to be more outgoing but i don't want to randomly just start being more talkative etc. when i meet new people or people who don't i don't have a reputation of being shy around i feel it is easier to be confident b'cos they don't know me as always being shy. How can i gradually become more outgoing and less of an introvert? thank you

Answer 1

i am also shy and i know its really hard to think of things to say when you meet people.

Try hard to smile a lot and start up a conversation.

Like what do your friends like?

Also, try answering more questions at school and so on.

I have this same problem. People call me shy and quiet, but I just don't know how to talk to people in the right way.

Try asking your friends how they're going, how's their vacation going, what they did for the weekend.

I am currently not as shy as before.

Good luck!!!

Answer 2

well I have a reputation of being the chattiest person i guess it comes natural to me but if you want to be more outgoing try talking a bit more tell some stories and eventually you'll get the hang of it and if you want a quick way it might get you in a bit of trouble tho

Talk in Class

most shy people don't even talk during class periods so doing that might give people the impression you're not as shy as you seem

I hope you do well and good luck :P

Answer 3

my reputation is also shy. i'm in your shoes. i think since there's a new school year, new people, people won't know that you're shy, just be comfortable
