At one point in college I was so shy that I'd drop out of a class if asked to speak in front of other people.

I know this sounds strange, but as a kid, I was really shy. Painfully shy. The turning point was freshman year, when I was the biggest geek alive. No one, I mean no one, even talked to me.

I was shy at school.

I was really shy as a kid.

To be honest, I was kind of a shy kid growing up.

Near the end of high school, I was always super shy, backward.

In school I was pretty quiet. Kinda shy until my junior year. But at home I was a freak.

I used to be terribly shy, so I was either shy or over the top, and I always had a difficult time.

I'd always been the confident guy in school. I was good in math and English, but I was still shy. I couldn't get up and speak in front of people. I was asked to do it when I was 10 years old and I burst out crying.

I was quite a shy child - not chronically, but I tended to blend into the background.
