ShyGriff doesn't really seem to take too much heed to the actual legit advice given. They mostly came up with excuses. I know they probably want the easy way out of socializing, but it's not that simple. You've got to take time with socializing. Ask somewhere else if you'd like, but you'd get the same general answers. I recommend that they do seek therapy and get some help on learning to interact with others. That way, they might be open to socializing in a more public environment (Like school or at a job perhaps). Hopefully they'll read this and maybe take it to heart. If not, I hope they don't constantly moan and groan about it.
