Girls, Can a shy guy be a real man or is that an oxymoron?

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

I ask because I'm shy with women but I don't think I'm a sissy or anything like that.

[BrightBubblyKat]

A shy guy can be a real man, if he has the guts to go after who and what he wants. If you leave it too long, the more outgoing women with confidence will think you’re a sissy or a creep, if you approach them half heartedly and randomly keep appearing and just watching them. It’s like fifteen year old behaviour to us.

[AsaKyo]

They can, but shy guys can be kind of annoying to deal with because they don't really tell you how they're feeling or what they're thinking and you have to constantly guess how they feel and you have to initiate pretty much everything to really get anywhere and overtime it gets repetitive and tedious

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

Not with me, with me the gal only has to initiate once, after she lets me know she likes me then I can lead the relationship because then I know she is into me. It's rejection what I'm afraid of.

[AsaKyo]

Then you should have no problems

I'm only speaking from experience lmao

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

You pinched my insecurities! lol

[dustybiker]

They should consider joining a martial arts class. I see people transform with confidence.

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

So you don't like sissy guys?

[dustybiker]

Is that what you took from that suggestion?

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

Maybe

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

I'm shy but tough so don't worry

[dustybiker]

Okay. 😎

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

You would love my muscles

[Msputiton]

Did i hear something about muscles?👀

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

@Msputiton yes mine, I try to lift

[Msputiton]

Try? Do you fail?

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

@Msputiton yes because I'm not very strong yet, girls love muscles right?

[Msputiton]

That's not how women work

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

@Msputiton how do they work?

[Msputiton]

We don't share 1 brain that controls all of us like robots. So women don't like muscles.
Some women do some women don't.

I know that's crazy right?

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

@Msputiton ohh I see, You mean that each woman is different with different preferences

[Msputiton]

Yes.
If you walk around treating us like we all act and like the same you will fail miserable in dating.
Get to know each person you are interested in dating as an individual and learn what that individual likes and is interested in.

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

@Msputiton I must not believe the cliche that women like dominant macho men.

[Anonymous]

What is a real man?

[Timid-but-manly-guy]

A man who takes care of his woman but my point is that just because a guy is shy doesn't mean he is a sissy wimp.

[Anonymous]

What do you mean you're shy with women?

[AmyHew1tt]

Yes, they can.
