Shy and no faith in my self

A male age 30-35, anonymous writes:

so hears my problem, regarding my shyness i have always been shy and quiet as far back as i can remember i have always been the same i am shy, quiet and low in self esteem. all through school i would get very anxious when having to do presentations infront of the class and make my self ill worrying aboout it so my mum and dad got me counselling until i was 17 i was 15 at the time i am now 18, it worked to a degree but since ending it (it was free for under 18, it costs for adults and i am not thinking about re-starting) i haver found more problems from growing up. ie; jobs girlfriends socialising, i am a virgin that doesnt bother me because i am only young and want to save it for a proper relationship, wich brings me onto the problem; i dont think highley of my self always doubting my abilities, thinking im ugly and have self problem issues how i look ect.. and that hinders me becaue im shy get anxious and dont think im good looking (wich im told i am good looking) i darent speak to girls i dont know because of the problem above. i want a girlfriend i want to get married and have kids but just cant see my self doing any of it. i meen i am a nice lad, gentlmanly, polite, funny, witty. thats if people get to know me, wich they wont if im quiet and shy.
