How to Get a Girl if your a Shy Guy

If you are reading this blog then I suspect you are looking for advice.  Well, in that case, you have come to the right place.  I have taken time out of my school work to give guys like me, some advice.  Although, I can be very shy sometimes, Im not always.  Here are the most important suggestions for all you guys out there.

Most Important: Have Confidence.  It is either for a girl to determine if your shy or not, but don't ALWAYS be shy.  Show her that you have confidence in yourself.  SHow her that you take pride in yourself and make your shyness a positive, it is possible. Which leads me to my next suggestion...

Well actually, heres a little story from the Mantis.  Not so long ago I met a girl at my college.  I don't try to meet girls, it just happens, its natural.  I rarley approach a girl unless I feel like it is absolutley right.  But anyway...So this girl was in the same class as me and I didnt think anything of her.  A couple nights after seeing her for the first time I saw her at a local Stop and Shop.  Didnt think ANYthing of it, didn't even say a word to her.  The next day I saw her in school and we were both walking to our cars and I looked over without thinking and said "So you work at Stop and Shop?" and she looked over at me with her golden brown eyes and talked 50 miles an hour until I thought my head would expload.  Than I see her the following week and she reassures me that I can come visit her at Stop and Shop.  Than I see her later and admit that Im a song writer, she wanted to listen, she listened, we exchanged numbers and after that it was basically down hill. Let me explain why...  First she was very flakey, she would make plans and not go through with them.  This went on for a while but Im a hopeless romantic and didnt want to give up.  So I brought her coffee to her job cause she asked me to visit her, I bought her ciggerettes, I gave her a flower.  It wasn't until a month and a half after we met that she told me she had a boyfriend. SOOOOO...GUYS...LEARN FROM ME!

Listen:  There are different levels of shy guys.  I am not the shyest guy ever, but Im up there somewhere(or down there) and I dunno how shy you are, but ASK QUESTIONS.
Do not be afraid to ask her if she has a boyfriend, that is a perfectly normal question to ask.
Do not be afraid to not answer her calls once in a while or not to call her at all(it is called "hard to get")
Do not make yourself so available that apparently your life revolves around her!
Do not tell her everything that is on your mind, be a little mysterious
Most important, BE YOURSELF.

Listen guys, if you've read this far, you must be a "nice guy", so if theres one thing I already know about ya is, your nice. Listen so am I, your great guys I already know you.  You would hold a door open for just about anyone, you listen to people's problems, you do favors and don't expect things in return, I know you guys already.  But there is one more thing you must learn...

Never let ANYONE change how you feel about yourself. 
I don't care if its a women or a boss, hell your probabley so nice that a hobo could call you a loser and you'd get offended.(by the way, thats called low self esteem).  Love yourself is what Im trying to say dammit.
Your a great person, I know you!  The most important thing you need to know shy guys, is that you must love yourself. but this artical isn't on low self esteem so I digress...

Lets see anymore tips?  If there are any girls reading I would like for them to comment and leave tips for shy guys(don't be afraid to be rough) and if there are any guys reading, feel free to ask any questions to myself and let me know ifI've helped you in anyway.
