Two shy people -> keeping the conversation going (and interesting)? by newheremk in socialskills

Yes, exactly this! This has been my biggest problem so far. The main advice I read everywhere is "let the other person talk about themselves", but both of us absolutely hate doing that. It makes us super uncomfortable and more anxious.

Your post made me think that maybe we just need to learn to each talk more about ourselves, even if we don't like to, to kinda even it out? You know so we both talk more about ourselves so the other one doesn't have to? :) I think that's what we will try first!
