A lot of times, being shy is mistaken for being cocky, being arrogant and being a dick.
I used to be a shy guy. But, I did not know that put people off. I did not know that they felt I was an arrogant prick. Now that I have and sort of corrected the whole situation, I want to talk to you.
Ladies, I don't really understand what problems you have. You know, Estrogen and stuff. So, let me talk to the fellas. I was called arrogant for years behind my back by all kinds of people. Distant relatives and cousins, friends I met not-so-frequently..This is a problem. You've got to set it straight.
Listen guys, I'm no Agony Aunt. I'm not writing advice columns here. I just want to help.
Say you've just got into college. You've got a solid four years! Hot women everywhere! So, being shy gets you nowhere! Trust me, no girl is going to say "Awh, look at that guy, he's so shy, let me go talk to him." unless your shy and sit by yourself in your Gallardo or something. In which case, you can push your meat into any homo sapien you want.
So, you're not doing yourself any favours by being an introvert.
I'm so glad I found out what people said behind my back. I decided I'm going to work on it. I had a little chat with myself. I'm this crazy, funny bastard amongst my friends, right? I could try and be the same with other people, right? 'Hallelujah, asshole!", my mind replied.
Then on, I made constant efforts to improve my social life and I have to say, It changed my life.
I started going up to random girls at parties, you know, as dares. I started hanging out with people I would otherwise just smile at and walk away.
Now, life's kickass! I can easily be myself around anyone. Any girl I meet, any girl I date, I'm my usual retarded self and people really like that. Most people don't bitch about me anymore and some still do. Bitches.
I sound like on of those Infomercial advert guys huh? I bought this amazing Sauna Slim Belt, LOOK AT ME NOW! Hahahaha NO!
Most importantly, I have fun! To me, that's how you measure a person's life. How much fun you had.
So, there you go. I don't know how much this helps. I was just talking about whats happened with myself. But, if atleast one shy clueless bugger reads this and makes amends, I couldn't ask for more. Cheers.
So, screw Marie-Louise von Franz! Shyness is not equal to Arrogance.
We just didn't know it.
Oh and by the way, in this blog I didn't mean to talk only about shyness and ladies. Damn it. Excuse me, excuse my age.
