Do you like shy men?

[Anonymous]

As long as they can still communicate and show that they are interested. They need to not be so silent we don’t ever talk. It’s ok sometimes. If they are able to be emotionally vulnerable and can cut up once comfortable that’s ok! Also sexual chemistry is important, will need to make attraction outwardly obvious. Have been with shy guys that appear ambivalent and that’s hard to work with.

I don't want to be with a guy who can't deal with himself at a party and who I have to babysit or is a stage 10 clinger or who just avoids normal social situations. Had one of these boyfriends in my 20s. It's easy to get caught up in the idea oh this person is shy and quiet but I am special and have broken through and he talks to me. Nope. It's exhausting.

This is all true. And a shy introverted guy who is confident can handle himself just fine at a party. My husband is shy AND introverted. He is also a social chameleon. He's confident so socially he's fine on his own. On the flip side - he finds parties exhausting and needs time to recover - the definition of an introvert. The shy part rarely becomes a hindrance at parties because we know so many people. Once critical mass is reached its so easy to float around at parties and never leave your comfort zone. I only notice his shy behavior in crowds of people we don't know, like a Christmas market in Germany. He has a hard time fighting to the front of the queue or getting the vendor's attention.

“Confident” is the opposite of “shy and introverted.” Your description makes no sense.

Quiet confidence is a thing.

Absolutely. And a touch of social anxiety is ok too as long as it doesn’t prevent us connecting.

That's why they don't like shy men.

Shy men are often very very good at ALL of those things. By the time we’ve gotten to bed it’s quite different.

Introvert man married to introvert woman. She says she loves being with me because it's like being alone. In other words, being with me doesn't exhaust her the way being with other people does. And it's mutual.

Great, hope you have introverted kids too. Or make them so.

My partner is shy and I have to admit, it annoys me if we're in a group outing. He's awkward. But we have plenty to talk about when it's us or around people he's comfortable with and knows.

I'm an introvert and find my extroverted husband super annoying lately. He dominates conversations. Ive started not inviting him to things so I can enjoy time with my colleagues or friends without him.

What is a shy man anyways? Women tend to worry more about how others view the (and the people with them) than men do.

I’m an introvert as is my husband, though he’s slightly more outgoing than me. I don’t mind at all! Honestly I don’t think I’d be a good match for a gregarious, loud person.

Uh that’s absolutely not true. Please stay away from women. You sound like a predator.

You can send him my way so I can show him how some of us actually enjoy dominating men (to the point of pain, even).

Of course!
