Dingoroo...maybe the shy you really is you...a part of yourself that comes out when you are online. I am not saying this is you, but for me, in real life, I put up a facade of being confident and outgoing when really on the inside I am shy. I am not saying you are not confident or outgoing--that is just how it is for me.

Being shy is not necessarily a bad thing--it is just part of me. Sometimes, the less words you use, the more powerful your words are...Shy people can say a lot if you listen to them.

I think you are doing what you need to be doing to make online friends. Your are putting yourself out there with this post. Hang around here, post and maybe start sending some PMs to people you are relating to...

I wish you the best...
