How To NOT Be Shy (Around Your Boyfriend/Girlfriend)
Timecodes:
Heya playa, if you just started a new relationship you may run into moments where you feel shy
around your new boyfriend or girlfriend. It could be that you don't know them that well
yet, you're afraid to make plans or you just don't know what to talk to them about. Don't
worry though because in this video I'm gonna teach you how to not feel shy around your
boyfriend or girlfriend. This is The Josh Speaks. You're watching The Josh Speaks. Sometimes
we look at shyness as a kind of weakness. As if we don't have what it takes to make
our relationship great and because of that it's just gonna fail. However, it's incredibly
common to feel shy around someone that you barely know and it make take you time to open
up and just be yourself. Try to think of this connection you have with this person as being
the kind you would have with one of your closest friends. As time goes on and you get to know
them a little bit better, you can joke, you can laugh and you can share stories with them.
If you feel like your relationship is so brand new that you guys are still practically just
crushes, check out my video right here where I go more in depth on how to not be shy around
your crush. Another way to overcome your shyness is to just be straight up honest about how
you feel. If you feel nervous around them and don't know what to talk about, just put
it out there and let them know, "Hey, I'm feeling kind of shy. But I want you to know
that I do care about you". By being open about how you feel, your partner will stress less
because they know where you stand and will allow them to open up more and share their
feelings with you too. So what do you do if both of you are shy and you don't really know
how to communicate that clearly with one another? That's perfectly fine too because once you
see that your partner is able to openly communicate with you too, that should be the opening for
you to also share your feelings. In new relationships, you may feel pressure from your friends and
society in general telling you you need to move faster in what you're doing in your relationship.
But in a situation where you feel shy around them, you may not even know what the next
stage should be. If you do run into those kind of situations where you feel awkward
putting your arm around your crush or holding their hand, check out my video right here
where I go more in depth on how to touch and interact with your crush. There is no connection
between how long you've been in a relationship and how far in you should be. For example,
if you're one month into the relationship, you don't have to be making out with that
person. You could still be getting to know them a little bit better. When it comes to
making plans though, you may run into the type of situation where you're too shy to
actually ask to hang out, so what do you do? The next best thing is to message your crush,
whether it be on Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat, build some kind of text based relationship
if you have to. Starting with this as the baseline allows you to slowly progress and
move up in your type of conversation with them. Remember, your initial conversations
should be similar to how you would talk to someone that's your friend. You can share
a little bit about yourself, things you're interested in and ask them questions so that
you can learn more about them as well. Plus, if making plans with them to meet up on the
spot is just too hard for them to do, try to organize your plans through text first.
You can do something as basic as simply saying "hey, let's meet up outside the cafeteria
today at 3PM". That way you can avoid the awkwardness of trying to make plans with each
other on the spot and not really knowing what to do. Use texting as the baseline to help
you set up plans for in-person meet ups. At the end of the day, everything is small steps.
Try to set up very very basic initial dates, simple things like going for a walk together,
hanging out after school, or even meeting up for lunch. You can always have online dates
as well, whether it's through Skype or video chat. Try to make plans with each other online
if that's easier for you to do. What do you think though, do you ever feel shy around
