What do guys think about girls who are shy and awkward?

Question

I'm not extremely shy, I can have conversations with people but I am shy and pretty awkward and blush easily. Is this a big turn off for guys? I was at a bar yesterday and this guy started talking with me and we ended up sitting together and having a conversation. It wasn't awkward at all but myself as a person, am awkward and visibly shy lol and I say weird things when I feel awkward!!🤣 he ended up messaging me later that night and we carried on our conversation. Do guys find shy and awkward cute or is it annoying and a turn off?

I like shy. I don’t know how awkward or shy, but shy up to a point is cute. Weird and awkward isn’t always fun, but it’s ok.

I’m shy and a bit awkward, so if a woman is REALLY awkward or shy, then I’m going to think it’s something I’m doing. Or it’s awkward mainly because I’m off putting. I had a few friends claim this girl was kind of interested in me. I’d try talking to her, and get grunts and one word answers. I tried sitting near her, friend’s came up and moved their purses so we could sit a little closer. She moved way away. I’d wave hello, and never get a wave back. If she was shy, it was too much. Mutual girl friends continued telling me to keep pursuing. I was just trying to be friendly at first. I didn’t want to put all this pressure on her. After a few weeks, I just gave up on talking to her at all. In my eyes, she looked at best as if she was tolerating me.

I think that it has to be a little tempered. shy works, and I like it, but There has to be some effort from her. A hello. Kind of walking with me from time to time. Answering texts within a day or so. Calling or texting me.

One girl claims to be shy, and isn’t big into texting. But I’ve never gotten a conversation started from her. She’s taking a while to respond. I’m doubting her interest level. Yes, she could be shy. But it looks a lot like disinterest.

I’m really shy. But if I’m interested, I’m going to try to show that in all kinds of ways. there’s shy, but it looks like a lack of interest for too long, and I’m assuming it’s that.

More like very attractive... XD Its far more likely who you end up with someone who will love the fact that you blush a lot and just get you to blush a lot. If anything blushing and being awkward and fun is a huge plus. Just get passed the shy part.

And you should be able to steal the heart of any guy. XD

So long as you remember to keep breathing when he keeps making you turn deeper shades of blush XD. If anything you probably are seen as something to treasure as its all to common for girls to hide. And turn inwards and come off as cold. Which for any guy I know just makes it 100x less interesting and FAR more likely they are just going move on.

I’m very shy and awkward but most guys tell me that I look mean and high maintenance. I thinks it’s just something we have to put up with 😞

The guy I'm talking with says he likes me because I'm so shy and awkward...

dinemsko · Answer

It can go both ways for me. Typically, I prefer confidence in a girl - but really anyone who deviates from the norm is attractive to me. Someone who has the right personality traits can entirely negate whether they are introverted / shy, or extroverted / outgoing.

Well, he seems interested in taking to you some more, so I'd say that you acquitted yourself well in the conversation.

I'm somewhat shy myself, so I'd never hold being shy against a woman. I also like it when a woman is genuine and not trying to pretend that she is something she's not.

Been shy and awkward isn't cute in itself per se. It may be a part of a girl's overall package that does appeal.

However, it is absolutely CRITICAL that even a shy / awkward girl knows when to signal something to the person shy likes. Otherwise that in itself becomes confusing and awkward.

Generally speaking, being shy isn't an ice breaker. It shows vulnerability. Its actually really sweet. Plus it shows you have a sensitive side. Dont sweat it. Shy and awkward means sensitive and random.

robske · Answer

i love those kinds of girls, usually the most fun, but you have to sometimes drag that out of her, and i kind of like doing that XD so yeah very cute in my eyes

SouthernLifeUSA · Answer

I personally find it adorable.

So long as it doesn't keep you from pursuing a conversation with someone you are generally interested in. Not all men have the confidence to sustain a conversation with someone who doesn't talk with them.

Torex · Answer

It really depends on the guy. Some like girls who are shy others like girls that don't seem to have a shred of shyness in them.

Personally I find it matters more that someone speaks up when it really matters than how often they usually speak.

i have been in a no label relationship with a pretty shy girl and there are definitely pros and cons with it. i personally think shy girls are attractive because getting them to open up to you is such an amazing feeling. the main downside though is that us guys have to do most of the work in terms of reaching out etc

Cute as long as they are responsive. If they don't respond, they may come across as arrogant which is a turn off

It can be cute if she is receptive to my boldness... Some times "shy" is just code for "closed of pain in the ass."

I love it! The lady I'm seeing is very shy and kind of awkward. She blushes at much of the compliments I give her and its the most endearing thing ever.

A blush can be especially attractive, cheeks all pinky pink.

HappyWheels · Answer

It can be a bit annoying. Though I can't blame someone for something that is out of their control.
