writes: Hello guys, I know this must be a common problem, I'm 19 years old, at uni (waiting for resit results), and get very shy when i come into contact with guys I instantly find attractive. I blush alot, and worry about blushing thats probably what triggers it, this is what holds me back, if this didn't happen I would definatly be more confident, I am sociable and can hold a conversation, (social setting though). During my retakes, I came across a guy, who I found really attractive and hot, I spoke to him and he asked me questions about myself etc, but I found myself a little stiff, and not very warm towards him. yikes, i think its probably due to the circumstances, but I hope I see him again, very unlikely though. How can I overcome this confidence issue, ? I know it takes time etc. I find the problem mainly lies in guys who I find attractive. I haven't been in a relationship before due to work commitments, could that be why ? How do I stop my sympathetic nervous system from going overdrive?Thanks

I have the same problem - even though I'm not usually shy. However there was one guy in particular who I really liked, and the first couple of times I met him I was practically silent, and he wasn't too encouraged. Last time I saw him though, we got on really well. I think you just need to spend more time with the hot guy - really get to know him. The more you see him, the more relaxed you'll get. I don't recommend you force yourself to speak to him - it'll probably just drag you through mental torture! Talk to him only when you really feel like it.Well I hope you can pluck up the courage, I'm sure guys will like you if you show a real interest in them.Good luck and take care Mushgirl xxx
