You Are 72% Shy



You are a very shy person, and it has started to impact your life in a negative way.
If you can avoid human contact, you usually do. And as a result, you miss out on a lot.
You should do more to be social, even if it's painfully difficult for you.
Spending time alone is healthy in moderate amounts, but you're practically a hermit!

Although you live a pretty normal life, you tend to be a fairly shy person.
Many situations make you feel uncomfortable, and you sometimes find your shyness hindering your life.
You can survive daily life just fine, but you don't go out of your way to be social.
Watch out. You may end up missing out on some advantages that extroverted people have.

You Are 12% Shy

You aren't shy at all, in fact, you're quite outgoing.
You are comfortable in almost any social situation, no matter how awkward or difficult it may be.
You can make conversation easily, and you know how to focus on other people.
If anything, you're the type of person who can put someone shy at ease.

Seems I've thought myself well.
Only problem left is that I don't open myself to anyone, my life can be compared to Dexter (the TV series) except I'm not a serial killer but an aspie.

You are beyond shy - you are most likely have a social phobia.
Social events give you deep anxiety. You can't deal with being around other people.
Your social phobia is completely taking over your life, and it's not pleasant.
Seek help, and you'll be able to enjoy life instead of fearing it.

I'm not surprised at this result

Not checked:
"You are afraid of public speaking."
– If it's not on a social occasion and I'm well-prepared, I have no problem with that.

"You don't like to talk, because you're afraid of being embarrassed by what you say."
– Ditto.

"You don't try to get to know people."
– Used to be the case. Now I at least try.

"You lie or make excuses to get our of social obligations."
– I'm bad at lying.

"You're practically a hermit"

You Are 36% Shy

You are slightly shy, but overall, your reactions to social situations are normal.
You dread difficult social situations, but you still handle them with grace.
In fact, no one but your closest friends has any idea that you're actually shy.
You do your best to break out of your shell. You are confident and friendly.

This makes me happy, because I have known what it's like to be isolated against my will. I enjoy my social life very much, Aspie and all.
