    That is literally the only step. Social awkwardness foundation is from caring too much. But that is so hard to just fix. You can't fix caring about what others think because to be honest, everybody cares about people's opinions of them. It's just how much we let that affect us and what we can do to lessen this flaw.

    Abbyツ the best way to think about it is this: people are much less judgmental than you think. No matter what you do, most people are going to accept the way you act and move on. Nobody, and I mean nobody is going to dwell about that one awkward thing that you keep thinking about for the rest of the day. If you just put your awkward self out there, someone is going to like you, and that person who likes you will be easy to relate to. The reason being is if someone likes you, that means they can see some of themselves in you; they can see that they will be able to relate to you. So just put yourself out there, and like this vid says, don’t shield yourself with your phone or by just being quiet, because then people won’t get to know you ever

    I agree with that to a certain extent, but true social awkwardness is not purely just thinking. I have many times, gone into a situation with that mindset and there is a chemical reaction in my body that causes anxiety, red face, sweat, mind blank etc. And while that may be psychologically related, it certainly feels like a physical issue you cannot control in the moment.

Does just reading and watching actually get people to apply the ideas and make real change or not?

    Also based on that thumbnail for this video... It shows a cross for the woman looking at the man's lips. And a check mark for looking him in the eyes. Eye contact is good but if she's looking at your lips like the way she is in the thumbnail, that means she wants to kiss you. Kiss them pretty lips.

    I can't say that I got social anxiety, but I often feel awkward. Even if you cannot tell all the time. It's more something inside of me rather than outside me. Because I have some friends, i like myself and I genuinely think I have no reason to be shy. But I really feel awkward deep down. My heart is pounding and I feel held back in whatever conversation, like something is preventing me from laughing and being relaxed. I feel like people have a light in their eyes that i can't have anymore, and that they're able to live better than I do. Sometimes I love what I say, but others I get crazy because I see my words as empty. I wish I weren't feeling this way. It just ruins many good experiences and pulls away people.

    The truth is, it’s way easier said than done, all people are different. I personally am a very awkward person myself, and I feel weird commenting because I rarely do. I can’t speak to people because I’m scared they might judge me and I will make it very weird. This video makes me feel a bit angry because how I see it is just saying “your sad? Well then don’t be sad,” I am not hating or anything, I’m just sharing how I feel, and how other people may be feeling to. I know there are going to be people hating me for this, but we have to respect all people’s beliefs and thinking. All I am saying is, people are social creatures, and we should be socializing more, but sadly the world is more of a virtual place now, and new generations are learning more how to not get out and socialize. I am young, and my generation is like this, that is also why I am like this. There are things that help, and things that don’t, and some may never even be solved. If you want to share your thoughts please share! That’s what the comments are for anyways. :D

And make challenges such as -one more friend by the end of the month. Then you can slowly make it harder such as -2 more friends by the end of 2 weeks! Make a list of your friends next to it! I hope this helped! 😊😁 Have a good day!

    I'm literally the perfect example of an Extro-Introvert (I know it's not an actual word). Some days I'm outgoing asf and chill as hell with people, even strangers I can be the life of the party with.Then other days, I just crack and crawl into this shell...I become more reserved and tend to over-analyze my interactions with people..what i think they're thinking about me, thinking I sound silly/idiotic. I just want to be normal full time *sigh*

    I probably broke the world record for the most awkward person on Earth, but I've tried some of these tips before. Knew I was going the right way!

    Nobody has the same issue. I have social anxiety and extreme socially awkward I’ll just sit and stare at somebody not knowing what to say and get nervous nobody ever can relate with my social awkwardness and I get extremely insecure to talk to people

    Your allowed to be annoyed, sad, or bored. People are not as amusing as they think they are, which is why reasonably intelligent people respond to them as if they are some sort of fungus.
