How do I get rid of my shyness?

Don't look at it as asking a girl out on a date. Just be casual and talk to her for awhile and then just ask her if she'd like to go out and get a burger or something. It's really no big deal, you're just going out as friends and then you just never know. Something could develop from it. Just relax and if you get a few nos just keep at it. It will all come with time!

You need some confidence sweetie. You need to take the I am great approach. Just break the cycle and be assertive. Once you have done it once you find it easier each time. Good Luck!

I was at a dance once with a friend and her parents and there was this guy that I thought was amazing across the room but I was too scared to ask him to dance. My friends parents asked why I wouldn't just go ask him, I told them I was too shy and scared; their response was "WHAT'S THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN, he will say No, then you just move on! " So I wanted to tell you "what is the worst that can happen? " ask yourself that the next time you want to ask a girl out. Hope this helps.

Sounds like you have a confidence issue. In order to build confidence in yourself, you've got to feel the fear and go for it. Just do it without letting your feelings control you such as the nervousness and shyness. Ignore them by not listening to them and instead, go for the thing you want and that is. Asking a girl out. Just do it one step at a time without worrying about if they'll reject you or not. Remember, all that counts is that you've faced your fear without letting your feelings control you. Oh, there gonna be there but that doesn't mean they have to win. You can do it! The more you face your fears, the more confidence you will have. Worry no more because 99% of the things we worry about never actually happen. So no matter what the results are from asking a girl out, be happy that you are strong enough to do it. Shows your confidence level is on its way to the top.

Well just keep telling or reminding yourself that it won't hurt to try but if you don't try it. Then that will hurt you.
So would you rather be shy and just hide what you feel or spit it out just put away your shyness for a min.
Just be positive! You can do it!

Confidence is not the issue. You can solve your problem in 3 steps. It is not a confidence issue. I know many badass guys who wither into vaginas in the presence of women.

1. Develop a "who cares" toward meeting chicks. Honestly, does it really matter if you get rejected?

2. Don't focus on yourself when you meet chicks. You are focusing on your own emotions. Instead, observe what the girl is saying and your surroundings. This will lead you as what to do.

3. Get experience. Meet people. Meet girls. Go out to have fun, not to pick up girls. I guarantee if you go out and get experience, you will be shot down. But you'll see its not that bad. I will also guarantee that you will get hot ass if you get experience.

Play on.

I'm shy too. I feel your pain. The only way that I know to get over the shyness enough to ask a girl out is to just do it. Easier said than done, I know, but that's the only way. If you have the confidence to do that, the next time will be easier, and again the next time. If you feel the nervousness coming on (I speak from experience here) then just take a deep breath and calm yourself. Start conversation in a normal way as you normally do, then steer the conversation that way. Have at it!

Yeah, just ask the girl out! Remember, you have nothing to lose. If she doesn't go out with you, at least you tried. The more you face your fear, the easier it will be. I'm with ya on this one! I was painfully shy when I was younger. Read the other responses; the ladies say the same thing! Send me an email, and let me know how it goes for you!
