Do you think it might be possible that God gave you these emotions so that you could learn the power of overcoming them?

Just because you HAVE an emotion doesn't mean you have to LIVE with that emotion.

Have you EVER liked someone & wished they would notice you because your fear of rejection or shyness held you back from saying hi?

I bet everyone has.

I know from experience that it hurts too and I don't want to ever think again, "I wonder if we could've......."

Every day i'm going to try something out of my comfort zone and at the end of my life i'm gonna look back and (hopefully) say, "I tried everything I wanted to, I have no regrets"

No i dont care of rejection..why should i???

I am shy and i dont mind that...

As i said..I would rather have a shy man then someone all out there....

But i dont have to worry becos i have a man now..

He is shy of some things and some things not..

I have never regretted at all not stepping up becos of my shyness and didnt get the guy..

I always say "Everything Happens for a Reason"

Ok! Where we goin'?

Where do ya wanna go?

Ever been to NZ?

Pock Pock (me too!)

Wise words .................... living life is an action.

Its something that I'm trying to work on myself - and if you saw where I came from - I've come along way - but still have many miles to travel in discovering and truly learning to love who I am. I'm on the road-trip of my life - the journey has had pit stops and a few flat tires - but overall its been an enriching experience. I'm enjoying the scenery along this journey.

What a wonderful description of your attitude! Go you!

Too cute!

don't worry I am as oblivious as you are if someone is being subtle about liking me. when I like someone and I am rarely subtle.... come to think of it... I'm like a giant bulldozer rolling through whenever I find anything or anyone I like.... perhaps I have something new to learn...

At least a guy knows where he stands with you then huh??

Good story Josh, I have done like you said, tried to seize the day so to speak, but nothing ever seems to come out of it.. there is always a problem, because of this or that, I mean what the h*ll are we here for if not to find that special someone, excluding the ones that are just here for the forums, and those that are already taken..

I think that if we make an honest attempt to get to know someone without expectation or design then we can truly say we did not fail to seize the day.

If at the very least you make a new friend then your life is richer.

If your attempt fails and you receive a polite 'no' then you will at least know where you stand.

Keep trying, positive thoughts & positive actions bring about a positive lifestyle!

Agreed, always like to make new friends, but it would be nice to gain something else, but not going to try to hard anymore, if it happens it happens..

Way to go Buddy

OH I am so sorry for both you and joshtaal- i didn't realise, and can only imagine

UPDATE:

I have stepped out of my comfort zone & told a certain lady I find her attractive

She has commended me for my bravery & wants to get to know me better!

Who knows where it will lead, I am ever hopeful.

At the very least I will know I did not fail to try & I took my opportunity to seize the day

Yay!! well done!

There is someone I like in RL..

he is vereee nice.. and yummy too! (bonus)..

He is a fireman and a farmer..

I was just watching him from my window.. on this warrrrrrm sunny day..

Tending his sheep .. in his shorts and T shirt..

You're too funny, even with a cold!
