I'm serious. This is the kind of thing you need to confront head on - I'm far from being a gregarious person myself, and I do find social situations awkward - but the best thing you can do is say hello. You need to face your fear rather than let it rule you.

During any free time you have during school or after hang out with those friends that are girls and start a conversation on like anything. Most girls are around other girls and guys so if you start talking about something more people will get in, which usually the topic will change and time will fly by talking about anything and everything. One thing will lead to another and your talking to those friends and her friends and eventually you can hang out with them and it might help talking to girls and the anxiety. Just hang out with some friends during any free time and even during class. It's a great way to meet new people and to get over the anxiety of talking to girls.

Hope this helps

Another option is to confide in one of these lady friends what you have confided in us and have her help you out. They probably know more about talking to ladies than us random male strangers on the Internet.

Depends. Sometimes that will turn out not so good. What if he trying to find someone who has been through this? and not actually talking to the person you are asking advice from helps. While talking to the person you tend to stammer and waste time thinking about what to say. This or texting is a good way to talk without actually talking.

I used to be very nervous talking to girls. I think it was my sheltered upbringing, but anyway, my advice to just see them as guys with boobs. It sounds strange, but society places an artificial barrier between sexes. We are more alike than different really. Girls tend to be more fashionable, focusing on beauty and style. Guys tend to like "macho" stuff more. Although this is more social than natural. Just... act like you do around guys. If you say, "what's up" real loud and shake a dude's hand when you meet, do the same to girls. They will appreciate you being up-front and yourself around them. Think about how you act naturally with your guy friend, and emulate that. Don't constantly think about how you look or act around them. Do you do that for guys? No, of course not. Why not? Girls are not better than guys, or vise versa.

Edit: On a side note, girls with low self-esteem will not like to be treated like guys. They can't handle that kind of confidence. They will try to assert how much girls and guys and different, and how girls are better. Stay away from these girls. Hang around lesbians.

LMAO

Sigged.

Though I can agree with most of your post, EoM, but only in that acting that way is a good icebreaker, and an easy way to get over your anxiety and nervousness. But I have to say that I treat my girlfriend way differently than my guy friends. I'm usually really loud with my friends, for example. When I talk to her, I'm sometimes really quiet...and I'm not obnoxious around her. This makes her feel special, because she's the only person I address that way. You can say what you want about social stigmas, but guy friends are GUY FRIENDS and significant others ought to be treated differently if you want your relationship to be any kind of success. Why would you be interested in dating someone if they were just another 'friend'?

Glad I could help

I get what you're saying lander, and I think that's great. I mean, I treat my family a lot different than my friends, and both of them different than strangers. You can really be who you want to be around people who love you. I was talking more about meeting/interacting with girls, but you already pointed that out so I'm just be redundant.

New house, no friends, halp@@@

Ironically enough, smoking brought me and a few of my best friends together in school, even though we've quit now

Join a club or do some charity work in your area. I've made quite a few friends that way.

But i'm not 12, i don't just go to the park and make friends.. Might join a club though sounds lame but I guess a 19 year old girl playing runescape isn't exactly cool either.

Go to college. You can make friends there! Unless you're already in college, in which case there are tons of people all around you.

If I met any girl playing runescape (that wasn't piss ugly like the ones I've met), I'd be pleasantly surprised. Runescape is a pretty popular, and large game... You'd be surprised,
