Shyness and inroversion are two different things, just saying.
I never said they were the same. But they go a lot hand in hand.
I agree with you, but shy guys are harder to get girls. #SadReality
Yeah, probably because it is hard to even get to know new people. But in reality most girls have a weakness for shy guys 😉
no guy don't lol
no they dont*
@orphan Yes, they do.
@AperolSpritz most girls do not have a "thing" for shy guys. quit making up shit.
My boyfriend is one of the shyest people you're going to meet, but that's partially the reason I fell for him.
I know a lot of girls who have a thing for why guys. Maybe they don't know how to approach those guys but they like them anyways. And the hottest guys I know has been shy and introverted. They are mysterious and interesting. Girls have secret crushes for them but when it comes to approachin those guys, it is a little harder.
@orphan Oh Good, more guys to tell the world what goes on in women's minds. We clearly don't know our own.
In the past, I have admittedly gone for bad boys, but I know a few sweet, shy guys. I dated two of them and they were the ones I was the most physically attracted to and who I fell for the hardest.
One thing you definitely learn is to never underestimate a shy guy. They aren't so shy behind closed doors.
@AperolSpritz all i see here is shy people empowering other shy people
Being introverted as a man is probabaly the worst thing you can be when it comes to sexual attraction.
yeah i know what you mean.. eventhough u like her, u can't make eye contact with her for a long period of time
You can be an introvert alright, but that don't make you a genius so don't think these quotes mean you're necessary smarter, just because you don't talk much/are socially awkward. You don't have to feel ashamed of being shy but don't think you're any better than someone a little louder and more confident than you.
To be shy or introvert isn't about not being confident. People can be very confident about themselves and still be shy. Shyness is more about not wanting attention. I never said shy people are better than the more outgoing ones, but I wanted to point out it is not a negative thing. People put down shy people and Introverts, even though it is nothing negative. I think I wanted to show a little more positive side of it and I am sorry I offended you with that.
Don't worry I understand what you meant (and agree I know a lot of introverts most are friendly) but those quotes are a little too much of trying to say shy/introverts are better (even if that wasn't your intention).
to an extend she's actually right. i have noticed that the louder ones tend to usually be the dumber ones. not that there is anything wtong with that.
@slimstiffy Possibly but that's doesn't mean that if you're quiet it would make you an intellectual. She probably doesn't mean it that way but it sounds more like if you're quiet/shy you're better than someone a little louder instead of you're equal. (Besides I was shy and quiet in elementary school but I'm happy that I'm more confident and louder now).
Well, it is often said that shy/introverts are somehow not as good as extroverts and loud people. I wanted to point out why it is not true. Shy people and introverts won't go all crazy and feel like they are better just for getting a little positive feedback. So you don't have to be so hurt about the fact that I lifted them up a little. I do not say that loud people are not equal to quiet people, but I do claim that there is both good and bad in everyone.
yeah i was shy and more introverted too younger. i have grown more bold now, as i think most people do when they grow up, but im nowhere close to a natural extrovert. and im perfectly happy, i wouldn't enjoy being like that too much. since i considered myself pretty smart, and i didn't see the extroverts usually being that smart ( im not bragging) i tought other shy kids were like me too. but i was provem wrong by some kids who were unable to answer my questions properly when i trued making small talk with them ( and it wasn't shyness, i know).
and yes, mytake owner , you made a goid point with your take. i think he got it.
I was actually partly agreeing, giving you a feedback and trying to help you...
Funny how you say "Don't think you're better" and then proceed to say extroverts are more confident
I hate my shyness and introversion. It's one of the worst things about me because it's why I make no friends and never will have any. It's bad enough I have all the schizo and possibly Asperger's stuff on top.
Aww noo.. 😕 I wanted to show it is a positive thing also!
But it's really not
Well I guess if you do wanna see only the negative.
Wear your suit with confidence and you won't have to chase the girl's, they'll chase you. (Almost literally)
Good take but unfortunately it doesn't get you anywhere in life and people do judge you on it.
I love this take. Very nicely written!
Thank you! :)
Indeed, it's 100% true... great Take.
Thank you! 😊
You're welcome :)
You're not an introvert, you're a block troll. You block everybody who disagrees with you.
As you see that's not true
you can't block me because I'm anon.
Well, I meant look at the other comments...
I only block people who write comments that have no relation with the context or start spamming. If they start being offencive towards anyone, I will also block them. I do not want to get that kind of crap on my posts. 👍
You blocked me many times for disagreeing with your views. Every time.
Maybe you did something of the above
Introversion and shyness are completely different and often unrelated.
Of course stephen hawking would say quite people have the loudest minds. he can't even talk.
Well, you should read a little about him...

OMG! i love this, its me all over.
I am an introvert and my kids probably are too
In some countries it's a VERY ugly word.
I know, this is why I wanted to point out it really isn't.
Good myTake 😊
Thank you! 😊
introvert doesn't mean you're shy.
I never said so. I know they mean different things but they face the same problems a lot and walk a lot hand in hand too. (If you know what I mean )
Haha, I love the first pic xD
Nice take... I am one introvert
how does this differ from autism?
You never heard about introverts and shy people?
Are you a scientist
