Well i thought i had dealt with this problem, and i have for the most part, but when i like someone my old shyness problem awakens again. And because of this anyone i like - i cant act normal and like myself around because of how i lock up.

But this has also made me have problems with people i just thought of as friends and am not attracted to began to like me because i can act normal around them.

Any help on how to help deal with this shyness is appreciated. And i realize there a person just like me thats not the problem....

Moviefan agony aunti can see your point but whenever i like someone i always think of them like a girlfriend as stated and its hard to shake that, i guess ill have to try. Thanks for the help. And ive also wonderd if i dated one of my friends would it help cure this shyness around people i like because i have never really done anything including kissing someone. I have had my chances but things always intervene for better or worse,

hi i have the same problem and i am starting to overcome it, what i think you need to do it bring yourself out in stages and don't be afraid of who you are if he really likes you he will still be with you when you are yourself.
