I'm a very shy person in general, but even more so around boys. They make me nervous. I'm not very talkative, but I do pay attention to what guys say, and I do smile and laugh when they say funny things, so I don't think my shyness comes off as snobbish (at least I hope not). So basically, what do guys think of shy girls. And do guys try to break through a girl's shyness? I can talk once I get to know somebody- it's just the initial contact that stumbles me.

When faced with a shy girl, I definitely try to break through the shyness.

But, here's the thing, you have to have enough of your personality showing to let me decide to persue you. I love dating shy girls, they are so much nicer than the rest, usually better looking, under appreciated, and overall, wonderful. However If I can't see any part of your personality underneath your shyness, then often times it is hard for me to find a reason to begin to break through and get to know the real you.

We both know that there is more to a shy person than the fact that they are shy, and it is this little bit that is needed to pull me in. I'll often pass up a shy girl (despite all the pro's) and persue an overly social girl.

You sound like a standard "shy girl" and there is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes a full relationship takes a bit longer and a bit more work with a girl that is shy, but it is by far worth it. Any time invested in a shy girl is time well spent, as slowly they open up and reveal more about themselves. It is easier to connect to someone like this in the long run.

So, My vote is for shy girls. The world needs more of them.

If the guy is interested (friend or love) in you, then yea he will talk to you, get to know you and try break the shyness. I'm same as you, I have to know the other person very well before I can be crazy, or else I'm super super quite, but I'm a guy so I have to change that myself, for a girl I think guy will break through it for you.

Okay, this may sound strange, but I am really shy too. That's not sounding strange, is it? Well the strange part is that I LOVE shy girls. If you blush, that's even better. I think it's cute. Hmm, a shy guy who loves shy girls. That might make for a very quiet date. I've actually never met a girl whose shyness came off as snobbish, so I don't know what you're talking about there.

Do I try to break through a girl's shyness? Yes, but only so they let me in. I'm yet to go on a proper date in my life, so I'm talking about friends here. One friend I had was incredibly shy. I was doing a course (learning video production) with her, and we became fairly close, or at least close enough that she let me in. When that happened, I found her to be incredibly, well, fun. She had a whole other side to her that was just incredible to be around. Okay, I'll admit, I developed really strong feelings for her. That's not the point though. Some girls are just shy, but once you get to know them, they can be really great people. It sounds like you're the same. If a guy doesn't spend the time or effort to get to really know you, don't waste your time on him.

I'm the same as what you say you are. I'm really shy until someone gets to really know me. If they can spend the time to do that, they find that there's a whole different person underneath my quiet, calm front I put up. A person that gets to really know me finds that I love telling jokes, I love romance, that I actually DO have complex emotions, and that I hate green peppers. Don't sell yourself short. Shy girls are amazing once you get to know them. Don't let anyone tell you different. :)

I always worry that my shyness will come off as snobbish too. I'm super shy around people I just meet, but once I really get to know you, that shyness isn't really even there though.
I'm a girl though, so I'm not sure what guys think about us being shy.

Guys: Do you really fall in love with a girl?
lvrgirl2011 asked 2 days ago

Yes, I've been in love.

No, I've never been in love.

I'm scared to love someone.

LOVE is an over-used word that doesn't have meaning.

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
First, a little spontaneity I would ask my date to meet me somewhere -- A museum, or park, some place in which casual conversation could be backed by something visual stimulating. A nice dress shirt, something not just a "button down", jeans and either nice shoes, or matching casual sneakers
The date should end with each of us wanting to know more about each other. Unless...

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
That there is more to find out... no, lol --> An introduction to my lifestyle, what I am currently doing and how I spend my free time. Maybe introduce something that I've been thinking about, so that next time, there can be a follow-up to it. Of course I would make sure she knows about my hobbies, and maybe one fun fact, like my celebrity relative or my 5-minutes of fame.

Would you date me?
