@OP, just open up.
There is something else that want to make you reject him.
If he is boring then, you make it more boring because your sense of humor if you have any would trigger quality conversation.
that's just the reason

Post like this gives credence to the useless saying that girls love "bad guys". You don't want him because you think he is boring.

I understand that you want a lively partner, but I will suggest you take a look at how he behaves around others. There are many reasons he loses confidence around you

1. He loves you too much.
2. You have this dominating aura. Some ladies and guys have it. They have a way of looking at you that makes you swallow saliva.
3. He never saw a relationship with you happening. Maybe because he thinks you are way out of his league. EPL things ehn

Give him time, when he is free enough with you or is done basking in the euphoria of his new found love, he will pickup. You sef go fear.

Hold that guy o.
Guys like this no get wahala.

No be all these ones wey once you enter their house, they will on gen, close door, put on loud music and start asking if you are comfortable sitting on the chair, abi you will come sit on the bed.

CyberWolf:
Same thing Ubunja has been talking about. When you’re nice to ladies, they call you weakling, boring, etc.. Treat them like trash and they run after you.
Same thing from you.
So being nice means being boring and lacking confidence? And having confidence means you must be nasty or be a bad boy. Please. A man can have confidence and still be nice. A man can be boring and still be a devil.
All these ridiculous stereotypes.
badadvice:
Op, that guy you're talking about is a "nice guy" and you should fight to keep him unless of course you're one of those girls who like bad guys in their youth and later pray and fight to settle with a nice in the future.
I'll advice you make him comfortable around you by being yourself around him, and by being yourself, i mean being your real self i.e how you were born.
Dress in front of him.
Touch "him" like you own it.
And if possible, fvck more than enough confidence into him.

When a guy becomes comfortable seeing your unclothedness, or having sex with you, he level of confidence around you will pique and you would end up not living a boring life!

Thank you jare.

If you feel he is too boring for you, you can decline. You don't have to wait around hoping he gets comfortable enough to start having confidence around you, neither do you have to feel you need to do this or that to get him to have confidence when he is with you.
Man never finish for this world.


If however you want to try out the suggestions given here that's all good also. Since he is has been your friend and he has good qualities
I wish you luck.
There is nothing wrong with the way you feel.

If a guy is boring and you as a girl cannot come up with something to spice up the moment, then you are more boring than him. Where is it written that it is a man's job to always come up with something new to discuss, spice up a conversation with jokes and humours, etc?

Daeylar:

Quite unnecessary and you're jumping into conclusions
She is concerned about him lacking confidence how does it relate to she wants a bad guy? Or give any type of credence to that saying? Is it only bad guys who have confidence?
And yes, she is allowed to say she doesn't want him because she thinks he is boring, there is nothing wrong with that. Doesn't mean she wants a bad boy,
Don't project on her.

Madam Daeylar, before you go attacking like someone on heat...I called it useless for a reason.

If there is anyone jumping into conclusion, it has to be you. Like how can someone ignore a whole post and focus on just the first paragraph. Seems like you are looking for a way to attack without remorse and reading further wouldn't help that.

How do you do this?

Good evening house, please I need your honest opinion on this issue.

There's this guy who has been my friend for a long time. He asked me out recently. He has very good qualities.

The issue is, he lacks confidence whenever he's talking to me thereby making him boring.
I'm thinking of turning down his request because I can't imagine myself living a boring life or are there ways I can help him improve on that?

Thanks
Help him build his confidence. You want to throw away other good qualities. Entertain him or are you boring as well

Aunty Brutus. You're still projecting.

How can it be a conclusion when there is a question mark there? Do you know what a question and a conclusion is at all?

Same way you ignored my whole post and started flying into conclusions.

Your question is totally irrelevant and it wouldn't arise if you took some time to read and understand. I do not buy the school of thought that only bad guys have confidence, but knowing it will be the next things guys say...I started my post with it.

Even Ubujah that is more defensive than you, got the message.

Once again, how do you do this?

Next thing na, you will start prancing upandan, taking side comments at people who do not agree with you. The only time you are happy is when things go your way. You are one special giel.

If you don't turn a simple answer into some type of drama and spectacle with unnecessary lines filled with delusions and projections. You wouldn't be at peace with yourself.

Madame has been going gags over beards since time immemorial. grin

Also, there are reasons why he is boring and boring can be classified into different parts.. "Does he just mope while you do the talking", " if the music player is turned on and you want him to come dance with you and he prefers to support his jaw with his fist and watch", and several other examples that will warrant I start contemplating on concurring your "decline if he is boring" assertion.

The first few commenters made the good points, she should analyze the nig' further. If he is my former self, the kinda guy that is ashamed of going all worldly to the girl to avoid being seen as a player but is lively enough to make her smile most times, she should soldier on with him and get to know more about him, there is every possibility he needs to be comfortable around her.

bro, you are the one who lacks sense here not the op.why do you like you partner?
is it not because she has all the qualities you like in a woman lets say she is beautiful and intelligent or would you settle for an ugly and dumb woman ? same thing with women too they all have qualities what they want in a partner and most times it is confidence and charisma accept this fact or be doomed with women .the op is even considerate sef most women will just reject you straight.
