How can someone who does not lack social self-confidence be described as "shy"? Every definition of shyness that I have looked at mentions or implies lack of social self-confidence. An example from Shyness.com:

- FRE,
people keep saying i am shy, so does my parent, in a way you could say i am shy.
but the real word is schizotypal/schizoid, do not misinterpret for schizophrenia, 2 things tottaly different
Schizoid personality disorder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
you could call it "the 21st century hermit", but not really
people just dont understand my need to be alone
Well, I think that most of us are disordered on one way or another. We just have to be patient and make allowanced for each other knowing that we all have glitches of some sort.

I know right.
However, if we made a social group for unsocial people would anyone talk on it? Then again...if we made a group for all the various disorders we all have or THINK we have...omg...we'd have to start another website.

I've always wanted to make a "Procrastinators Group" but I keep putting it off...

That's me totally. I'm swinging a very healthy size, but I have some social disorder. I'm like a king when my pants come off in the bedroom but literally retarded when trying to get a girl in there. When I get approached by females, I come off so shy I think it makes them uncomfortable. I've been hooking up with girls through sites like AFF or even occasionally going to strip clubs just so I can avoid the convos. My friends have come just short of actually placing a girl on my cock to get me laid.

Concisely put (though I suspect that you don't mean "literally" when you say "literally"). For me, one reason for showing off on this site is to get the attention that I can't get in real life because I'm so bad at getting to the stage at which the clothes come off.

Aw, you cannot be that bad at it. Your a smart guy and you look rather athletic. You should have a million things to talk about. I cannot speak for every woman but I really like shy quiet guys. I'm more curious about them than other men.
I have always liked to play with puzzles. The more quiet he is, the more intriguing he is. I either want to make him smile... or be quiet with him :smile:

Lots of post here I can relate to a great deal, so I guess its fair to say I belong in this club.

That's me totally.
If I was single, I would have the exact same problems to deal with sadly.
At times I've thought of myself as shy, especially in certain situations related to dating and so on, but "highly sensitive" is far more accurate:
The Highly Sensitive Person

I'm good at establishing rapport quickly and easily with individuals in a one-to-one or small group setting, but easily flustered/overwhelmed dealing with multiple people and large groups.

Now I have a name for my illness "Schizoid personality disorder"
Fit it to a T, except the sex part. Guess thats why I like strippers. They like my Fat dick, I like the non commitment sex. Most of the ones i have been with are somewhat crazy, so I have no fear of ever falling in love with them.
I think you are a rarity. In my experience, most women interpret reticence as a lack of interest in them, and quickly write off the men who show it as not boyfriend material. They may find the guy's conversation interesting enough to keep seeing him in some capacity or other (e.g., "I'm not free in the evening this week; how about lunch instead?"), but they see to it that there is no progress toward intimacy.

whoa,woah, hold on just a mutha fuckin' second!
cal.....you're shy? what part of social interaction has you a jumbled up that you're considered "shy"?

Why should you consider that surprising? A person's facility in posting words on a Web site is no indication of social finesse. I am uncomfortable in large gatherings and uncomfortable with strangers. I come across as completely boring when I try to talk to a female who looks interesting to me. I am acutely conscious of my social shortcomings, hence lacking in self-confidence, and it shows. Women instinctively respond that, and not favorably.

When I read the title of this thread I thought to myself that I'll nominate my husband for president! But then I saw "looking for sex," and realized he really doesn't have to look.
But he is ultra-shy about his size to the point of being apologetic. He hates to show off, and when I ask him to just dance for me before coming to bed he refuses. "Just shake it around then." Nope.
When he told me he found this site I asked "did they make you king yet?" He even got embarrassed about that!
So, sorry, you don't get a new member, but he would have been perfect.

trust me..it's all in your head,if you constantly think about it you'll "fail" every time.i don't have half the looks that you have,in fact i'm a 5 star general in the "ugly guy army" but it's never stopped me from meeting women.i thrive in large social gathering type settings.be yourself,and if a woman can't enjoy/like you for you,she's not the woman for you.
keep on movin'.
