Question: help being more open/outgoing with guys? ok like ive realized that when guys try to tlk to me and stuff like i kinda not exactly get shy but just like kidna brush them off instead of keeping the conversation going. i mean like most of the time i wanna get to kno them but i dont even realize what im doing i just like get scared or something its hard to explain. i want a boyfirend but im just scared like to get close to someone? i guess? its weird tho cuz other times i am really outgoing, etc. but it never works out . my last bf was like very shy around me so idk if like guys who are really outgoing scare me but i would rather go out w/ sumone more outgoing so idk y im like this. idk if im explaining this right but does anyone have like an idea of what i mean? and maybe how to fix this?

Answer: Look at guys as at someone who could be your friend instead of as potential boyfriends.  That usually helps.  \n\nTry to talk about things you like, like music, sports, whatever.\n\nDon't be afraid.  Most of them are just as scared as you are.....
