Description
Decided to make another pony confession, this time concerning my newest fear. I just don’t want to deal with anything involving shy girls-they scare me, and I’m too young to wind up in the hospital.

Because all shy people have super-human strength.[/sarcasm]
Are you fucking retarded or something?
(As I technically already said,) I’m pretty sure most shy people are going to hate you because you’re an intolerant dick, not because they’ve got underlying issues.
Seriously, grow the fuck up.
How the Hell can you be turned on by someone who’d be liable to break you in half if you rub them the wrong way?!
i thought we were having an intelligent conversation here
Just get out please.
any psychologist who doesn’t know this fundamental concept really fails to understand the human mind’s natural ability to attempt to harmonize itself. And that would be a rather large gap in their knowledge bank.
*over two decades.
The more you treat shy people as monsters just because they have a personally trait you dislike, the more they’ll shut themselves off from society (becoming more shy in the process) and lose touch with the rest of said society.
And they will resent you for making them feel like that.
But, what do I know?
I’ve only had to put up with this bullshit for over decades.
And the fact that I’m a bloke doesn’t change what I’ve said.
Shyness is shyness (although different people have different reasons why they’re shy).
And being treated like a monster is (obviously) going to make you feel like a monster.
As others have said, shy people aren’t all the same.
“…the total opposite of a doormat is a highly dangerous individual with no concerns for others…”
This grinds my gears. Too many people confuse assertiveness and aggressiveness. The total opposite of a doormat is someone who stands up for him- or herself, not a bully.
“…you can take the episode fluttershy gets bad advice from iron will as an example…”
The problem here was more that she wasn’t assertive than that she was just shy.
“…the human mind is built with a safety switch that takes as much punishment as it can take before it retaliates…”
You assume everyone will retaliate, as if it were as natural as flinching when in pain. Some don’t. Some just tell ourselves, “it’s just two more minutes” when someone cuts in line, or “that was more expensive than expected, but I could still afford that” when overcharged, or “they have to leave sometime” when blocked. And the anger goes away and isn’t built up!
I can’t speak for every shy person out there, but after I get angry, I forget about it, and don’t bottle it up or anything. Anger left unexpressed doesn’t stick around to charge a battery that powers some kind of superburst of expressed anger. It’s just a feeling I once felt and don’t anymore. In fact, while I know nothing about psychology, I do recall reading that some psychologists think catharsis might be a myth, why not look into it?
allow me to explain. Doctor Jeckel spent his whole life being timid and letting people walk all over him, he invents a potion to separate himself from his inner anger as he can see he is beginning to lash out in frustration however the potion causes him to separate himself from his inner feelings too well causing him to transform from time to time into a manifestation of his inner self, which of course being the total opposite of a doormat is a highly dangerous individual with no concerns for others and is fueled by his will to get his own way and if you’d actually fucking read the book you would know this.
being shy sets people up for failure by default as people naturally see it as an opportunity to take advantage of people’s timid nature. when i said failure i was making a broad description to cover any circumstance but to be more specific you can take the episode fluttershy gets bad advice from iron will as an example, people taking your place in a line, ripping you off in a shop, blocking your path because they are too interested in themselves or their own friends to care about a stranger they don’t know. this is the broad definition of defeat i meant not necessarily violent events.
if you never get your own way it does not just grin you down to dust constantly accepting more and more punishment dealt by people disrespecting you and treating you like a doormat. the human mind is built with a safety switch that takes as much punishment as it can take before it retaliates. nobody totally fades away and that’s also why everyone can be saved, even the bullies.
‘Constant failure”? Not everyone who’s shy fucks things up on a constant basis. And, you can still be shy and achieve everything that makes you happy.
And the fuck has an allegory about Dissociative Personality Disorder have to do with shyness?
what i’m saying in general is that people who fail to achieve what makes them happy develop deep centered frustration that can and will be channeled out at some point in future. there is no such person as someone who take constant failure without gaining anger, that kind of person is more the fabrication of comics. and while we’re on the subject of such fiction i suggest you read Doctor Jeckel and Mister Hyde cause this applies rather directly to the conversation and could be an eye opener to some people. [more importantly the explanation at the end]
Do you learn everything you know about people from comics? Not everyone who’s shy is automatically a secret psychopath. Not everyone who brags is insecure about their qualities. Not everyone who’s smart obsess over knowledge.
While there are people who are shy that are prone to anger issues, correlation is not equal to causation. Some people are shy for reasons unrelated to the level of anger they are subject to, and not everyone who’s shy bottles up their anger.
So, there are no shy folk? Just a bunch of repressed rageoholics?
trust me. there is no such thing as a person who is just shy. all that pent up frustration lives inside them as long as they lack the confidence to control their lives in the way they would like. they are either shy and suffer as a consequence which makes them angry or they play on being shy to get what they want. it is impossible for someone to be on the back foot forever the mind just simply doesn’t allow it. it’s a survival mechanism and if you know someone who only appears to be shy and nothing else i suggest that you look a little deeper and you may find a little more than you expect inside that individual.
Not all shy people are like this. It’s a generalization, and not a good one. Some people are just shy because they’re shy.
wow. you really don’t understand shy people well.
