Shyness (also called diffidence) is the feeling of apprehension, lack of comfort, or awkwardness especially when a person is in proximity to other people. This commonly occurs in new situations or with unfamiliar people. Shyness can be a characteristic of people who have low self-esteem. Stronger forms of shyness are usually referred to as social anxiety or social phobia.
The primary defining characteristic of shyness is a largely ego-driven fear of what other people will think of a person's behavior. This results in a person becoming scared of doing or saying what he or she wants to out of fear of negative reactions, being laughed at or humiliated, criticism, and/or rejection. A shy person may simply opt to avoid social situations instead.
One important aspect of shyness is social skills development. Schools and parents may implicitly assume children are fully capable of effective social interaction. Social skills training is not given any priority (unlike reading and writing) and as a result, shy students are not given an opportunity to develop their ability to participate in class and interact with peers. Teachers can model social skills and ask questions in a less direct and intimidating manner in order to gently encourage shy students to speak up in class, and make friends with other children.
Social anxiety is a specific form of anxiety. It is an emotion characterised by a discomfort or a fear when a person is in a social interaction that involves a concern of being judged or evaluated by others. It is typically characterised by an intense fear of what others are thinking about them (specifically fear of embarrassment or humiliation, criticism, or rejection), which results in the individual feeling insecure and not good enough for other people, and/or the assumption that peers will automatically reject them.Developmental social anxiety occurs early in childhood as a normal part of the development of social functioning and is a stage that most children grow out of, but it may persist or resurface and grow into chronic social anxiety during their teenage years or possibly in adulthood. People vary in how often they experience social anxiety, and in which kinds of situations they experience it.
Chronic social anxiety that causes considerable distress and impaired ability to function in at least some parts of daily life is an anxiety disorder called social anxiety disorder (SAD). It is the most common anxiety disorder and one of the most common psychiatric disorders, with 12% of American adults having experienced it.

But in truth, shyness is based on a set of ideas about the world that are eminently amenable to change through a process of reason because they are founded on some touchingly malleable errors of thought.…” You c...

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you
I bought a cocktail dress
But there was no occasion to wear it so
I threw a party myself
I invited al these people
And you never grow to old to dream
So I invited you too
I invited you too
You where talking to girls I wish I hadn’t invited
You where cool and funny I could tell
Your laughter was the only thing I could hear
But I just couldn’t come near
Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you
Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you
Oh what a disaster where did the purple drinks come
from
I was making confessions about things no-one needs to
know
Besides I ate all the candy, and burned a hole in my
dress
To heaven excuse I started cleaning the kitchen
I felt like crying but I was my party so I had to keep
smiling
Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you
Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you
Oh you came my way
I couldn’t believe it, you came my way
You said ‘do you need someone to help you drying’
Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
And I wanted you, you, you
