[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't matter if it's OLD or real life, if he's shy and introverted he's going to struggle.

I've dated shy, introverted men who I genuinely liked but it was always a MASSIVE struggle. They were too afraid to ask me out, couldn't plan a date, couldn't go out for very long because it was too exhausted, conversations were like pulling teeth, etc. I felt bad because they were genuinely great guys, but I don't want to do all the heavy lifting in a relationship.

The best thing would be for him to get a coach to help him learn some social skills and get over his shyness. Everything else is just a waste until he does that. [/quote]

Great advice. Instead of "shy and introverted", consider whether he lacks social skills and has social anxiety. He needs to improve his social skills through in-person practice. And maybe get professional help.

He also needs to be reaching out to potential matches with something other than "Hi". Something that shows he read her profile and is interested in her specifically and put in the effort (the tiny effort, really) of writing a custom message. Women on apps are deluged with low-quality messages and they don't have time to respond to all of them. If he cannot understand this dynamic, you have a real problem. [/quote]
