Welcome to the site, i hope you will feel at home here :)

Your not alone in this -

Yes, I've been told before that i appear shy

But I've also been told that i'm too self critical (which to some is being self absorbed and selfish) and insecure and should "get over myself", you try jumpin over yourself, ain't that easy is it? Hehe anyway, yeah being shy and feeling nervous around people is sort of part of my personality, and it takes some time to change. Working on it, but it's not something easy to change alone, change is partly something for us to get our hands on and mold, but other people has a say in how this process will work itself out as well, through support, guidance and understanding.

People mistake me for shy when I'm not, I just don't care for small talk, eye contact can be hard to manage sometimes and my interest are pretty narrow so I only talk about them.

I've been called shy alot. Sometimes I was quiet cuz of anxiety but other times I'm quiet cuz I just don't have anything to say or I'm not really paying much attention & zoning-out & daydreaming.

I was very shy but I don't know if people saw me as shy so much, since I also had outbursts. Once a supply teacher asked my class, "Is she a little shy?" after I didn't answer a question in front of the class, and one of my classmates said, "Sort of." So I might not have totally been seen that way.

In truth, when I was a kid, most people WANTED me to be shy. I used to talk too much about what people regarded as "nothing at all."

I used to shake, though, when I had to ask a girl out for a date.
