I love shy people. I think because they're a challenge. And I love it when they decide to open up and let me into their world. Most people are so desperate for someone to know and love them, which isn't a bad thing - but there's just something about the people who just don't try that hard. I'm not talking about the people that never talk, but the one's that allow things to sink in and comment when they have confidence in the statement they're making instead of always saying anything just to fill the silence. Sub - Topic: I also find something really beautiful about when two quiet people get together. Like they have a mutual understanding and make eachother feel special because they've let eachother into their own, very private worlds... As though they know stuff about eachother that noone else does. I like that. Not that two very social people in love isn't grand as well - But it just seems more intimate to me when you can look at the body language and how two people interract with eachother and just get the sense that they're just content being by themselves. That they're enough for eachother. They can just relax in social situations because they're not concerned with getting noticed or what anyone else thinks of them as individuals or as a couple. I get annoyed when I'm around couples who are so preoccupied trying to look like they're "so in love" at parties and such. - They usually defeat they're own purpose by overdoing it and coming off fake anyway...
I'm a quiet person who many generally think of as shy. I have met quite a few people who love the challenge Some can be alittle overbearing or obnoxious making me withdraw even more. Its good that you like to try and get them to open up more, many probably feel greatful for someone taking the time with them. I dont think people should have to try hard to get people to know or love them. Shy or outgoing we are all the same deep down so as long as you are decent to others you will have people around. Theres no need to try hard to gain it. Shy people arent any less or missing anything than more outgoing people.
I like the allure of knowing where you can enter through back doors off dark alleys into clubs for the late-night crowd. Most of the time I'm rocking the boat by 8:00 am.
Tongue-tied, (I'm) short of breath, don't even try Try a little harder Something's wrong, you're not naive, you must be strong Ooh, baby, try Hey girl, move a little closer. You're CHORUS: Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush Modern medicine falls short of your complaints Ooh, try a little harder You're moving in circles, won't you dilate Baby try Hey girl, move a little closer 'Cause, you're CHORUS: Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush, eye to eye Too shy shy Hush hush
Im verry shy....I just cover up with a bit of bravado....but...get me alone..and you find me stumbling over what to say !!
Not all shy people crave love.. And that's actually what makes them so apealling.. Even though I'm frightningly shy myself, at least until I get to know you, I find quiet, slightly withdrawn people alot deeper and multi-layed than the brash people who force themselves into my line of sight
TattooedAquarian, I too am a fan of the people you describe as shy. However, I don't consider such people "shy"; I consider them normal. Everyone else who is loud and overly outgoing (aka attention whores) are that way because of latent insecurities.
erzebet1961, Fortunately shyness is one of the few social anxiety conditions which can be entirely overcome. Hotwater
Im shy and some people will think thats its just that im a snob or something...that I dont wanna know them...No fuck, come to me lol
When I was 19 years old I was shy as well, but I had this unique ability (or confidence) to walk up to any women from any ethic, racial, or social class (in any circumstance) and find myself actively conversing with them and ultimately charming their panties off. Yet under most social circumstances I was quiet and reserved. Hotwater
well same i'm not much of a talker and well when your just talking for the sake of talking whatys the point..i guess i'm quiet till i have something to say
I'm extremely shy to a certain class of people. I'm talkative but not open to some people that I am comfortable with. And then, I am loud and crazy and opinionated when I am around complete strangers or the few people I'm reallllyyy close to. It's weird, I know. Sometimes, I think it's hard to distinguish the difference between painfully shy people and people with absolutely no personality. I remember I had to drive my cousin's boyfriend to see her in college, which is a 3 hour drive, and at first I thought this kid was just really shy, but I've now concluded he just doesn't have a personality. I'm not saying that to be mean, but he doesn't. He NEVER has anything to say, even to his gf. Being shy myself, especially while growing up, I should be able to relate better, but when you talk to yourself for 3 hours straight with an occasional yes, no, or um that isn't a challenge I would like to pursue.
