Overcoming my shyness

I really liked this guy at school who I thought was good looking.

We used to talk only a short while, and I was always nervous and got tongue tied talking to him.

I used to hate it because I acted so shy and nervous, then someone gave some good advice.

My friend who can chat to anyone told me to stop thinking about it so much, and because I wasn't going out with this guy, who was to say he was good enough for me?

I thought yeah, I really don't know him, so why should I be so nervous around him? He was good loking but I did not really know what he was like.

The next time I saw him I decided to speak to him normally, as though he was someone I did not know really.

At first my heart went racing like before, but I decided to keep talking more than normal, and found the butterflies quickly disappeared.

Soon I was talking to him like an old friend.

I have no idea where it will go, but I did like the fact I learnt to be able to talk to a cute guy without losing my cool.
