How to become more outgoing?

alright, so I've heard many definitions of 'prude' and im not really sure if I know exactly what it means? and is there anyway you could make yourself more outgoing? and able to feel more comfortable around people. because im wicked shy most of the...

time and dont want to be. I just dont know how to break outta my shell. any advice?

I used to totally be super shy too...dont worry it'll pass...what I did is freshmen year I made a new friend who was very very outgoing...she talked to guys and other people as if it was no big deal ..anyways her attitude on being outgoing rubbed off on me and I soon started to make other friends and guy friends...

if you hang out with people who are confident then you will see that there is nothing to be afraid of.
never hide your true self! and once you feel comfortable with your peers talking in front of a class or presenting a project isnt as frightening as before. = ]

hope this helps + good luck !

this is really great advice. (:
but see, my best friend is so outgoing and most of my friends are too. a lot of people say they dont know why im friends with the people im friends with bc they are so outgoing and im not. im just so sick of that and I really want to be outgoing. but hopefully itll pass.

I'm sure your a wonderful person who has an amazing personality, you just have to let them see it. dont worry , if they are your real friends they wont judge you.
dont be scared to be yourself and everything will be fine =)
you have nothing to lose, engage in a conversation, be random and silly, ++have fun!

thankss, this really helps. :]

anytimeee!

The trick to being more outgoing is by NOT being shy. Don't let your shyness get the best of you... Be bold enough to approach someone and start talking with him/her.
