People have told me I seem shy before, but I don't think that is really it. I am actually pretty open about things once I get into talking to someone. Its hard for me to initiate social interaction and I am terrible at eye contact...which throws some people off I suppose. But yeah its not necessarily a fear to talk to people its more like an inability to initiate conversation which probably makes no sense to most people.

Now there is some fear involved as in the past especially while going to school as a kid I got picked on and such a lot so I always worry that people wont accept me and might even take it further...that is usaully always in the back of my mind. But that just developed from how I got treated by people, its not the initial cause of my social interaction difficulties.
