Can A Relationship Between Two Introverted And Shy People Work? by rinora(f): 5:55pm On Feb 10, 2013
Hello people,i just need ur opinion on these,theres this guy,i met,a few months back,while i was babysitting.We dint get to talk the day,we met but we exchanged numbers,and since then,we started talking,on the phone.However my personality,is the shy type.I am a very shy and introverted person,most times,its easier for me to flow only with extroverted people,and when i realised this,i made up my mind to only date outspoken and extroverted guys,and thats what ve always done.However,in the process of knowing this guy,i got to find out,that we both have similar features,he is also very introverted and can also easily flow with only extroverted people.But the weird thing,is that since we both started talking,on the phone,we find it so easy to flow with each other.Sometimes we could talk for hours,over different issues,on the phone.After sometime i decided,to forget my rule of dating only extroverted guys and we started dating,but the issue now,is due to our shy nature,whenever we see each other physically,we both find it quite hard to express ourselves to each other,Sometimes we would just be staring at each other,but on the phone,we would talk non-stop.These issue of not being able to express ourselves physically,except when on the phone is kind making the relationship boring.I really like the guy so much cos hes good to me,nice and handsome,but i just feel bored,i like excitement and spontaneity,in relationships,but the shyness wont allow us,do u guys think i should just quit the relationship and move over to an extroverted guy,that would not be shy around me or should i stick to my introverted and shy boyfriend and continue being bored?

it surly can work. i think the first thing to do is to talk about your observations (on the phone of course grin ) then instead of you trying to bail out you should figure out how to work on your own issue of not being able to communicate with him in person while hoping that he works on his own issue.

i mean ask your self why all your relationships with the out spoken guys haven't worked out. Maybe after a while they think you are boring too because you never have anything to say and you just let them carry the relationship.

if anything i would say this is a perfect opportunity for the two of you to work on your introvert personalities together and make it work. Stay in there and talk about it and you should be proactive in carrying the convo when you feel it is going down hill. Or better yet develop new interests and have him join in with you.

Sometimes making the first move doesn't really mean that you are wild.. Make him feel free with you, eg sit on his laps, pinch him sometimes, try to start the play first, i believe he will pick up from there cos we guys love fun, introvert or not....{i'm no expert, just a suggestion o}

Many introverts don't usually show the "introvert" behaviour with the ones they are dating be it extroverts or introverts. When you love someone you will communicate very well. The problem with many relationships is that they don't tell the partner what the problem is. Why don't you tell him this problem you are sharing here so he can find a way to spice up the relationship
