I used to think I was shy about talking to the opposite sex but then kind of realised I was scared of rejection. Then I realised you don't even get the chance of rejection unless you talk to people, I now just talk to people as if they're my mates!
Cool piercing and ink! I really need to sort out my back tattoo...
The only way to overcome shyness is to loose all your shame. I spent years making nervous jokes and stammering, before I'd made a fool of myself enough times trying to talk to people that now... I have no shame and know that I'm never as bad as I have been. So basically, it's just relative idiocy.....
Nice tattoo, anything dragon related gets my votes
Shyness well its fairly simple, just play fuck all the stupid little voices in my head telling me what bad things can happen and I go to it.
