- There's that too. -- nm - Reagen Feb 5, 07:44 1
  - Sometimes it gets old being the most awesome person in the room. -- nm - Spawn Feb 5, 07:49
- I'm not shy, just a good listener. -- nm - LMS Feb 5, 07:44
I think the bacon is a noun, verb, and adjective, does anyone not agree? -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 5, 07:43 2

- So, who was just taking a meeting? -- nm - Spawn Feb 5, 07:44 1

By the way I am shy. Most people are shocked because I compensate for it. Almost to an extreme. - Redmond Feb 5, 07:36 8
- I'm not sure that's shy then. - ty97 Feb 5, 07:38 7
  - Either that or my definition of shy is off. That could be. -- nm - Redmond Feb 5, 07:41

very shy. standoffish, even. -- nm - znufrii Feb 5, 07:29
Andie, 'shy' to be sounds like a word to describe children, not adults. I'm an introvert, but don't know that I'm "shy" -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 07:29 6
- I'd describe myself more along the lines of "I don't like being around people." - JaxSean Feb 5, 07:38 1
  - [deleted]
- "shy" seems like something you just have to outgrow. Just to get through the day. - Amy Feb 5, 07:35
- This sounds accurate. -- nm - Shaun Feb 5, 07:31
- Although this is a fair point. I bet 90% of people were shy at *some* point. - TFox Feb 5, 07:31 1
  - oh, I was an insanely shy child -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 07:32
I would call myself 'initially shy' - it takes me a little while to warm up to people. - kelly Feb 5, 07:29 6
- I'm less shy than I used to be, but am still very quiet around people I don't know well -- nm - Strongbad Feb 5, 07:33
- I would be too, if I walked up to someone and said "Hi, I'm ke... oof!" - TFox Feb 5, 07:30 4
  - L4 -- nm - loosilu Feb 5, 07:34
  - *laughing* I hate you. -- nm - kelly Feb 5, 07:31 1
    - spoils - TFox Feb 5, 07:32
  - But there's nothing like a faceplant into the crotch to get past those new-person jitters. -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 07:30
I am Shy -- nm - Redmond Feb 5, 07:28 3
