Romancing A Shy Guy Is Fun?

By Tara Hari

Falling for a shy guy is enough to send any sane woman over the edge. It's obvious he likes you, yet he infuriatingly refuses to make a move. You're left with a dilemma - should you chase him or should you wait for him to make the first move? Ladies, a word from the wise, waiting for a shy guy to pursue you is futile. He will definitely chicken out and you will be kept waiting until frustration drives you crazy. And despite popular belief, playing hard to get will get you nowhere with shy guys. The only way to get a shy guy is to make the first move yourself. Romancing a shy guy is a lot of fun and has a lot of perks attached to it.

Romancing A Shy Guy Is Fun?

Lets look at why dating a shy guy is fun and not a waste of your time.

The Chase

The best part of romancing a shy guy is the chase. Women usually have to take a back-seat, during the initial part of relationships, to seem hard to get. But with shy guys, you get to do the chasing. They like confident women who will approach them, and will appreciate you, instead of losing interest like normal guys.

The Challenge

Who amongst us can turn down a challenge? Cracking the shy guy's shell will be an achievement you will definitely want to brag to your friends about. Underneath that passive shell will be a wild streak only you will get to see and enjoy.

Sole Confidante

Every woman likes to be thought of as special. Dating a shy guy will make you feel extra special. He will tell you his deepest and darkest secrets, which he has never told another human being. You will be the one he opens up to, completely and without inhibition. But shy guys need time and patience. Do not expect him to tell you his entire life story on the first date itself.

Layers

Like onions and Shrek, shy guys also have layers. The most fun you will have while romancing a shy guy is discovering each layer of his personality. Underneath the various layers, shy guys are usually unique and surprisingly quirky. Just make sure you don't act too surprised and offend his feelings, as shy guys are usually quite sensitive.

Romantic

Most shy guys are romantic and are not embarrassed to show it, after their initial hesitation. They will shower you with gifts and surprises. They will think up elaborate and innovative dates to celebrate special occasions. Which girl wouldn't like to be pampered like a princess?

Not Egotists

No shy guy wants to steal your thunder. They are rarely egotistic, and are content to sit back and let you have the spotlight. They do not try to steer every conversation back to themselves. They will even be grateful to you for talking, as it extricates them from the burden of making conversation.

See, ladies? Romancing a shy guy is much fun. Although they might be hard to get, they are definitely worth the effort of the chase.
