How can one become a more outgoing person?

Hi Matt,
You don’t have to be out going. You don’t have to impress anyone. Do you have any friends if it is only one person have fun with them. Do your own thing. You don’t have to be a part of a group. Be different be nice to the
girls even if you don’t want a GF. If you can have a party invite some friends and relatives your age to make sure you have somene there and have fun. That’s what it is all about. Don’t let it bother you. Don’t let anyone push you around stand up for yourself girls like that. They should be the only people you want to be out going toward.

you can’t

I believe the key to this is to act as though you are confident. You may not feel it at first, but after a while, you will trick yourself into thinking you are truly confident and actually BECOME confident after a while! It really does work. Confidence is key!

Okay okay. I’m an EXPERT at this.I used to be super shy and reserved, but then I found some people I was comfortable around, and totally let it out! You just have to learn how to not care what people think.

Just so you know, girls DO like shy guys so being shy isn’t a bad thing

My question says it all

you don’t think you do….then you live with the consequences

when you have an opinion, make sure that its heard, make more jokes, dont be a quiet person…speak your mind

try not to be so serious over everything and if you think your outgoing you will become outgoing. and don’t be shy to jump up on a table and scream at the top of your lungs. and don’t let other people tell you to shut up never let them tell u to shut up.

I think the key is to speak up (non-obnoxiously) and smile a lot (without being creepy) Join in a conversation if you have a point, or if your with a group of people at school start up a conversation about a teacher or something you know you all have in common. TV shows are a great conversation starter. When you start talking more you get more comfortable, confident, and outgoing. And smiling and being kind will want people to get to know you more.

Be a bit more creative and suggest ideas for things to do or invite others to go to things with you. Dont label yourself as an annoying tag a long – you sound like you are outgoing but you are letting others over shadow you. Just by joining in the fun and being there you are showing that you at least participating rather than staying at home – you will get better at socialising the more you socialise. If you have some other friends that you communicate with reasonably well then ask the to join you when you go out with others. On the otherhand, this group you are with might not be the right group for you – maybe in reality you find them all a bit boring with nothing much in common other than the need to be seen. Dont know if I answered the way you need but I hope this is a bit helpful.
