...I have no guy friends and i have trouble making them. Like when a guy talks to me i could only give them one worded answers and i become really quiet and awkward whereas, with the girls, i can talk and be the loudest person ever, and have fun. For example, when i was playing with my ipod, a guy asked me if i jailbroke, i said, no. Then he was like u could get free games, and then i say ok. END of convo...and another one was with my school mate. He asked if I went to his elementry school b'cus i looked like someone from his kindergarten class, i said no...end of that even though he kept talking i kind of blocked him out. Geez, what is wrong with me?

You just haven't found a guy that catches your attention and interest.

I think this is one of those things you just have to kind of force yourself to do until you get comfortable enough that it starts to become natural. For example, I was INCREDIBLY shy until my Freshman year of High School when I took a job (cashier) where I was forced to talk to people as part of my job. After that, I've never really had any problems holding a conversation. Maybe target a guy in your class you think you might want to talk to, and either start with something easy, "How are you?" "Did you do the homework for today? I had trouble with the question about ____, did you?" Or if you already know something about them (like that they play basketball with their friends a lot), a question like "I heard you like to play basketball, I've never played before but I always thought it looked fun," can be a good conversation starter. It's not a horrible thing to have a couple questions in mind when you approach someone if you're afraid you might clam up when you start talking. A lot of the things you already talk to your female friends about, you can talk to boys about (the exceptions being obvious things like shopping [well, some guys are into it], boys, periods, etc).

Yes, exactly. Target them. Like prey. >:]

interesting, i think i have the same problem.

[myxo]

I only have that problem with guys I like or might be interested in. The problem usually stems from my insecurity or the fact that I get easily intimidated. Maybe you're too concerned with scaring them off that all you do is remain silent for fear that you might say the wrong thing? Try to be more comfortable with yourself.

[vectorzz]

JUST PRACTICE TALKING TO ME!!!

lol

on a serious note, think about why you can't talk to guys, are you shy? afraid? bored?

[chopstick^^]

how would u respond if a girl said that to u instead? ..

but........it's not possible to like so many people at once?....i don't know, i guess i'm self concious, but......help me!

[Chanellas]

pretend they are girls? xD
really manly girls? lol

[小甜密]

Oooh I think the second guy try to hit on you. o.o

[I Wonder]

Somone is scccaareed of the Pen0rz.....

[TSignature]

Haha, I used to be that way too. But I got over it because I talked to guys more, and I usually talked to them when my female friends are around, so it's not so awkward. Don't try to force yourself to talk to guys, they'll just think you're weird xP I learned that the hard way.

[LGG]

Nothing's wrong with you, you're just shy when it comes to guys.. You tend to get self conscious when you talk to 'em right?
Then, no worries, i had that problem too. I sometimes still have it actually, but that's only when i let myself get self conscious.

My advice to you is: If you do get self conscious like me, make yourself not worry about how you look/do things.
It's important to LIKE YOURSELF first. If you're comfortable with yourself, you'll see how easy it gets to talk to other people, including guys.
If you do happen to do something which you think was wrong/uncool, don't worry.
People won't hate you for it, i promise ^^.

When guys start talking again to you, don't answer with 1 word phrases! Remember that they wouldn't start talking to you if they didn't like you.
They're really just interested in you and want to get to know you better. And when you guys get to know each other better, it gets easier to talk right? And more fun! You'll be able to talk as loudly as you want with the guy too.

[qquinto]

its okk, guys aren't that great :b

[Argentine]

yeah intersting enough i can talk to girls just that even though i talk alot,none of them are really interested in what i am saying lol

One thing that would help is to ask a question after the short answer to keep the convo going

[swtaznang3l07]

Well, to me it seems like you need some opening up to do. Try practicing, next time YOU try starting the conversation. From there you will eventually start getting use to talking to guys. You have to learn to step out of your box. It's going to feel really awkward at first but you just have to take a deep breath and force yourself to talk. When you're talking to them don't think of them talking to you as "omg they're checking me out". Be comfortable, they're human too, maybe they're just as scared to talk to you

[xangie]

if you don't mind me asking
do you happen to have a brother?
girls who have brothers, little or big tend to talk to guys more easily.
probably because they're used to talking to boys at home.
so if you don't, theres more chance that its not you whose bad at talking to boys, but its them who are good at it.

BUT. do remember this,
if its a guy you like, EVERYONE does it honey. EVERYONE is nervous in front of the guy they like.
But if you are generally nervous and you can't talk to them, then you should think it this way, GUYS are as nervous as you are. Especially when its someone they like. Apparently, guys take a lot of courage to flirt with girls, and those who do it easily, are those who had experience in flirting enough to not be afraid. There is NO ONE who is just born-to-be-good-at-talking-to-the-opposite-sex, its all up to the lifestyle.

LOL

Anyway. There's nothing wrong with you. It happens to a lot of people, actually, either they be male or female. I think it all just needs some practicing? It happens to me sometimes, but mainly it's when I'm not interested in talking to anyone (I like my alone time :x). So yeah, just practice a little, and the next time a guy talks to you, SAY something that'll keep the conversation going.

[hellokitty24]

i refuse to talk to boys they break my heart and have cooties =3
