how do i become more outgoing? I'm not shy, but i'm pretty quiet in my classes so wat should i do?
Answers:
1. Just be yourself
If you are not interested, dont do that.
If you feel bored alone, then do that, but dont do just because others do.
2. Don't worry about how people perceive you. Just go talk to new people and be yourself.
3. i have the same problem im like always quite and i never really show emotion
4. I'm the same way, it's really really hard for me to make new friends because I'm really shy around people I don't know, and it's hard for me to make friends. Just be yourself. Maybe, just work your way up. Talk to one person you don't know, then two, three, and so on until you can talk to anyone!
5. if there is someone you are interested in, start by making eye contact, smiling, a smile is intriguing and inviting. don't try to be too noticed, as some people look ridiculous when they are too loud. go to class early and start small conversations with the people around you, with men and women. and you will find you will make more friends and the best relationships start as friends.
6. push yourself to be more outgoing. Make it a point to speak up and answer one question a day, or talk to someone you normally wouldn't. Do things that push your comfort level a little and then build it up. It will be hard at first, but eventually it will get easier and easier until you are as outgoing as ever.
Just make sure you are doing this because YOU want to be more outgoing...don't change yourself for anyone else, EVER!
7. I'm the same way. I found out if I make myself start conversations with people it helps. I used to wait for people to talk to me, and I found that doesn't work at all if I want to get to know people.
So start a conversation with the person sitting next to you, often other people will join in and since you started the conversation your usually more comfortable.
Also if people see you talking they're more likely to talk to you.
Oh, and be yourself! :)
8. Try loosening up a little bit and putting yourself in different than normal situations. Go talk to a group of kids that you don't know. Try telling jokes or funny stories to make people laugh to see if you can do it. If you're middle of the road to good looking, try wearing the skimpiest bikini to the swimming pool or beach, and see what kind of rise you can get out of the guys, and what kind of jealousy you can inspire out of the girls. Maybe join a debate team or something where you have to argue with other people. There's lots of ways to try to come out of your shell.
