KansasChica Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Has anyone had any experience dating or reconciling with someone love shy? My ex can't even talk to girls without the help of his best friend. He became comfortable around me because we were friends first (and with the help of his friend). Once he felt comfortable, things were fine. --Love shyness is a term used to describe men with a kind of chronic shyness which makes it extremely difficult for them to be assertive in informal situations involving potential romantic partners. Having said this, I must tell you that these men are perfectly normal. They have perfectly functional sexuality, they are healthy, they are heterosexual and they might as well make great lovers. The only issue is the preconceived notions that they have about themselves which makes them feel inferior to others especially in social situations. In addition these notions also tell them that they cannot keep their partners happy and hence will eventually be rejected. The extreme fear of rejection is what makes them turn down any potential approaches made by woman towards them. But deep down within, they are desperately longing to develop intimate relationship with the member of the opposite sex.--
start-fresh Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I have not, OP, but what's your point for asking? Did he dump you and you're trying to get him back? Have you asked yourself why you want to be with someone like that? If he has such a hard time with women, I would think he should have appreciated you while he had you.
