Ok, yes, I know I can 'spout' a lot on here, and hopefully I don't offend but in reality, I prefer to sit in the background and watch. Who's the same?

Reticence, awareness, outsider, cannae be arsed..
I'm in.
I would never be described as shy. Never .
I'm shy if I'm with people I don't know or who I know only a little. I can't speak in front of strangers without ending up with a beetroot face
In my group of friends I am far from shy but that's where I'm most comfortable.

You're like me I think Ells. I'm ok with peeps I know
I'm shy but ppl wouldn't know because I turn into a chatterbox to hide it.

Shyness is nice, and
Shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life
You'd like to
Ask: The Smiths.

I'm like that too. I can't bear awkward silences and babble for England but ........I am quite shy.
Actually - I'm not sure if I am anymore ......I used to be but I'm not so bad as I was.
I'd never dream of posting on a forum ever.

Same
As a child, I was shy and lacking in confidence when confronted by new people or situations. I still am, but I am better at hiding it nowadays.
I'm relaxed and quite confident when I am with people I know and like.
I used to be shy to the point of being a selective mute when I was younger - now I'm always getting myself into trouble for not shutting up
I can be quiet at times and it's possible it's been mistaken for shyness as sometimes I wonder if they can come across as the same, not sure about that I'm not quiet though when with friends, I enjoy conversations that cover many subjects - I think women are best at that from my experience, they can easily hop from one subject to another

I am not for one minute going to challenge your assertion, but when I read your post I immediately thought "I wish YR could eavesdrop on they type of conversations me and my friends have when we meet". Our conversations also bounce around like a pass the parcel full of excrement.
I'm a bit like that YR. I tend to like to sit back and listen to people in social situations. I don't like being the centre of attention And sometimes I'm thinking....I'm not talking a lot here and they must think I'm a miserable sod
I'm terribly shy
I'm terribly shy
Are you sure you mean 'shy'?

That's good to hear EC my experience of men's conversations is that they seem to revolve around sport, pubs and cars lol

No cars, no pub talk.
A bit of sports but mainly film, music, the arts, girls, work, a bit of family and our aspirations.

There can sometimes be one in a group who enjoys being at the centre lol, it's better if the group all has something in common with the others and has a chance to get a word in lol
