Most of my friends are close friends or are good friends with boys apart from me, i get shy around them and never know what to say without sounding stupid or awkward. Any advice on how to start conversations with guys or anything that you think will help?

aunt honesty agony auntShyness is quite common at your age believe me. But it gets easier talking to guys the more you practice. I guess you look at them and you feel self concious and you are scared what they think of you. But you can over some that. Just be friendly. Say hello and be friendly, have a warm smile on your face and just ask them how they are. Take it in small steps. Ask them there interests and just get to know them like you would with any female. It gets easier in time I promise you.

Being shy is not the worst thing in the world. I see by your age you are in the prime of your life.Those are great times at that age. I almost could remember when I was 16. Just let me give you some advice. Men or teenages are easy but be careful with them. You don't have to say much to guys for them to like you. This is a delicate time in your life. What you do now will determine how you act in your later years. What I mean about that is always treat your body and mind with respect and most of all demand that through you actions when talking or playing with the Opposite sex. I don't want to get all serious with you. Getting to serious won't bring out your beauty, you being shy that will go away eventually.I'm sure when you get together with your close girlfriends you have alot in common to talk about. They say oppsites are attracted to each other which is true but they also say if they are in a relationship or they are married it dosen't last long. What You want to find is someone that you have things in common with believe me you won't be shy any more. The mental challange and the sex will be great. Like I said before be careful with men The minute a guy tries to disrespect you mentally or physically I don't care if you love this guy dump him. You are a gentle butterfly you need to jump into life on your own terms. Take Care
