Well I am. Not with friends but with strangers. The most embarrasing situation is when facing a pretty woman and chatting. I find it extremely difficult to look into her eyes. How do I overcome this situation?

If I am face to face I am very shy. Especially when meeting new people. I used to be like that when I met boys. I'm not really sure how I overcame it, not sure if I did to be honest. I just got better at communication. Sorry I'm not much help.

Yes I am also very shy person.But I am geting over it as if we are shy ,it is not our fault but in some situations it gets really embarassing and we just fell -why I am shy.But,I think we must develop a power to get over this effect.I am already working on it and learnt a few tips- 1.Always remember they are also persons like us. 2.I should have eye contact with them -come what may. 3.I if come out of my shyness,maybe the same effect is observed in them. Happy myloting

Same here. I am also shy. But you can overcome this by telling yourself that you can do everything you wanted to do. In your case, you can do a little research about the woman, what interests her. From there you can open up a conversation, try to make her laugh. You'll see, it is not that difficult.

If you get to know the woman, do you think its possible to overcome that feeling and look her in the eyes? I have this difficulty with women whom I even know.
