How should you deal with a shy / introverted girl? Is it always doomed?

[Rockstarrrrr]

So, you meet a girl... Attraction happens... both of you can feel it.. You want to get closer to her... but it turns out she's more on the shy / introverted side... she doesn't know how to really flirt or give you appropriate attention... subtle... On and off... Most of the time keeping a decent safe distance between you and her like she does with other people / guys... Basically expecting the guy should ignore all this and do ALL the work and know ALL the deep thoughts in her head and start initiating and approach her / start asking her out for romantic dates in a super charming way that would make her feel totally desirable and zero awkward or anxious... Of course that usually doesn't happen because not every guy is maxed out on social skills and confidence and a certified mind reader... There are even shy / introverted guys too... So time goes by... It's getting stale.. And you ( the guy ) start questioning all this and thinking if it's really worth it, she might be not that special... So, you eventually forget about it... Case closed.. and the world will never know... Meanwhile... You meet a bubbly / extroverted girl.. charming.. knows how to present herself.. Gives you enough attention.. Flirting / flaunting herself inviting you to make a move... Or even coming on to you and approaching / asking you out... And you're thinking.. Damn, what a breath of fresh air.. this chick rocks.. I can spoil her xD... Shy / introverted girls tho... Does it ever work or amount to anything? are they just too complicated? I've noticed most girls like that are usually single or settling with a guy they don't really like eventually...

You lead gently with clearly envisioned steps. moving slowly is NOT desired as that creates more insecurity and instability. You are a gentle securing force... WORRY LESS and do more !!

That sounds good... theoretically

Being honest works as they will always respect one who acts... even if they say NO they will still respect you and you will occupy a permanent spot in their head. A man that acts... If nothing else, it is good practice.
It might not work the first time and it might the second if Consistent. Calm, deep smile. safe and positive energy exuding outwards is a powerful draw for shy, worn out, and insecure.

It is not far removed to one knee, "hello, come here"j for the new dog, cat, or sister's baby kid...

You have to gently lead. You're the man. If she wants you, she'll follow your lead. Noone is that shy to say yes or no when there is a good opportunity for a date or an exchange of numbers. It's all about how you carry yourself respectfully and how you court her.

TL;DR. If it's want to get to know a shy woman, just ask her out. She may be shy in public but if you are nice she may open up to you. My wife is shy. We met online, then meet for coffee, and she immediately warmed to me.

You take things slowly. Don't rush her. Let her be comfortable with you.
