Your honest view of shy/non-confident people?

I never mentioned introversion. That is distinct from shyness.

Life is tough. if people are on their own, so be it.

But it is a personality type that is often associated with shyness and in this context is implied to be indicating shyness - not my fault if you are just going to pick holes in my language instead of commenting on the content

Nobody does or should fear anybody, this is a basic human maxim. Shyness is defined as being scared of others, and hence literally "shying away" from interaction.

Life is tough. if people are on their own, so be it.

Whilst I do like talking to some people, has it not occurred to you that some people would prefer sitting on their own than talking to some other people like you?
It's a bit big headed to think that everyone WANTS to talk to you when they don't look like they do... maybe they just don't like you very much?

heh... so confidence is not a positive quality (or not traditionally deemed so)?

And yes, value is subjective. Everything is subjective. This does not mean that humans don't look down on those who don't value themselves.

heh heh lol... Somebody who is so fearful of others is naturally looked down on.



hmm... consistency is wanting in you, is it not?

Your boring.

If they don't want to intergrate, they'd say so.

As it is, they never do, some just need someone who isn't intimidating to encourage them to talk to others.

I'm a very confident & motivated person. I really dont like it when people are all shy - and then other people go all twee over them. To be honest, if you want good friendships/relationships with people then I guess sometimes you've gotta come out of your comfort zone.

I meant why should confident people care if the "shy" need comforting? As said, we should just throw them onto the curb.

All this crap about the fact that shy people should be left with the curb is utter rubbish. To say that a shy person isn't equal to someone is outgoing is, to me, and to most other people, disgusting.
Like I said, people just need to accept that everyone is different. You can't simply force someone who is outgoing to shrink into themselves and avoid situations because they're otherwise inconvenient. You can't force a shy person to come out of thier shell with a click of the fingers. It doesn't work like that, and that's what a lot of people fail to realise. Introverts can be neglected by the rest of society, in a lot of cases, shy people are happy not to be the centre of attention. I can't understand why people won't accept that. They don't need the ignorant comments, or your sympathy. Leave them be.

your logic is eskewed. Severely. and no basis in proof or reality for that matter.

Nope not in the slighting. Im consistantly thinking your a prick for a start.

anyway - the people i have no time for are those as i said who cant do anything such as the person i quoted. But they as a rule are in very much a minority. and in any event i would never advocate cruelty or saying they are useless.

Theres a difference between cruelty and expecting someone to help themself when you have exhausted all other options yourself.
