How to get over my shyness?

Ok so I’m a 13 yr old girl in 7th grade and I’m really shy. In my study hall on band days I have no friends so I sit by myself. im not mean or obnocsiuos(I dont know how to spell that). If im in a fight I dont stand up for myself because im to shy to say anything. When I like a guy I stop talking to him and he thinks I hate him when I do. And I dont ask for help when I need it. How can I fix this? PLEASE help!

Answer #1

Don’t worry about it. I am 14 but when I was in mostly 4 and 5 grade I was really shy and didn’t have any friends. What I found was that I didn’t really respond to people when they said hi or talked to me. People don’t want to talk to you if you don’t talk back so maybe if you started saying hi and just walked into a group of girls and started bringing yourself into the conversation people will acknowledge you more. Hope this helps!

Answer #2

Just let it go and wait till it comes to you,

I use to be shy… and know im not, I’m outgoing and different, You just gatta wait for you to change and find your rela self.

Answer #3

I’m a jew, but the christians got at least one thing right: The Lord helpeth those who help themselves. Waiting to find the real you either wont work or wont work fast enough. Take action! Go places! Do stuff! I’m shy too but I try to get over it. If you talk to someone in 99 cases out of 100 they will talk back. In the halls just smile or say hi. In study hall ask someone for help on a problem, and work with them for the rest of the period. Sit with a random group of people at lunch and just listen to the conversation. If you speak when you truly have something to say, that thing to say will be worthwhile, not just like “OMG Joey did WHAAAT???” Thats kind of stuff doesnt matter. If you talk when you have something important to say, people will notice you anyway. That’s just on the subject of getting more friends. Boys are a completely different story. If you want help with THAT, just funmail me. Hope I helped. -Charlie
