Is shyness bad?

I'm the king of awkward.Should've seen me and my girlfriend's first date...XD I'm shy by default, but it's more just an introverted nature. I'm also very honest and blunt(I can't stand two faced people or liars), but you must first get me to talk. On line, it's a lot easier to just talk. In person? I may stammer a little... I find that with age comes a little more of the "don't give a fuck" attitude and with that in mind, I'm actually quite a bit more open in person than I used to be, but I most certainly still have my moments.

It's not when you have a person that comes to you with an open mind and an open heart. But, that is very rare to find these days as you imagine. But, I know several right now so you are not alone. This is also a good topic glad you made it.
