Do nerds/shy guys/introverts fall in love faster?

[Bethany94]

I'm asking for guys, but girls too. If you're shy, don't talk to very many people, are a nerd (or whatever you label that kind of person) do you fall in love quicker? Like if someone pursues you, does that make it more special? Do those people just make connections faster because they have less of an "image" to maintain and less social connections (so they're not spreading themselves thin, they have more time to devote to the object of their affection)? Is it because a lot of these shy people are sweet and more genuine?

I'm not asking for EVERY SINGLE PERSON like this, just the majority. What do you think?

I seem like that kind of person and I fall in love quickly

I seem like that kind of person and I take a long time to fall in love

I don't seem like that kind of person but I think they fall in love quickly

I don't seem like that kind of person but I think they take a long time to fall in love

It makes no difference/I think you're a bag of sh*tty stereotypes

I consider myself described as such. I don't 'fall in love' fast; but I do develop crushes rather easy to say the least. Anyone that I can agree with or carry interesting conversations with I usually end up having a crush on. Or someone else equally smart or nerdy looking that I can interact with on a daily basis I also end up having a crush on too. Most never find out though; fear of rejection and lack of self confidence ends up keeping me quiet. Double-edged sword, really.

Every intimate relationship has more significance because I don't share myself with many people but when I do, that means I really trust that person.

I dated a 2 nerds, one totally fell for me, was obsessed, and the other completely surprised me... when I acted distant with him he basically said f*** you and never talked to me again.

-________- Why did you act distant?

I can totally know I feel strongly for someone, but what kinda love that is I'm not so sure. There are three types after all. Love for a friend, love for family, and intimate lovers love. Hard to figure out what it is after I know I feel strongly for someone.

I am nerdy and a little anti social so I make connections with people I DO talk to faster than usual including girls I like because I become sorta attached. Maybe its because these type of people typically have fewer people to care about so they can give more love ha ha jk.

I can only speak for myself, but I am nerdy and shy and I don't think I would fall in love fast. I keep a lot of people at arm's length. I don't trust easily. However, when I do, I feel like I would fall harder because I'm putting all of my eggs in one basket.

I'm an introvert but I don't think I fall for anyone faster. I go to an engineering school where everyone is a nerd even the football players so I think I'm qualified to say that this is not true.

Yes. We tend to get attached easier and tend to develop feelings quicker than guys who are more relaxed and confident and fine with taking it slow.

If a guy was still a virgin at 30 and had never had a girlfriend. Do you think suicide would be the best option at that point?

yeah but the shy, quiet, socially-awkward guys, most of them are screwed because they are passive, rarely or never approach girls, and even when they do approach girls, ask them out, girls reject them

Another factor to consider as an introvert is that we tend to live inside our own heads. Once we start to like a girl she occupies our thoughts during these times and this escalates to infactuation easily.

At least that is my experience as an introvert who can spend a lot if time zoning out and thinking about a girl.
