I am a shy woman. My experiences-guys pay me no attention, except the bad ones, and probably because they think I will be easy to get because I am shy and awkward, rather than because they are actually attracted.

I have no experiences with shy men though. lol

I'm a pretty shy guy.

Not as bad now that I'm older, but when I was younger I was really really shy. Matter of fact, I hardly ever approached women, they seemed like they approached me more. Of course, I was devilishly handsome and while my looks have faded, I've got some mad comedy skills which would help if I was out in the market....

I hear it's not bragging if you can back it up.....

I feel some shy people have better analyzing skills yet miss many chances.

I've always been shy, but much less now than I was when I was younger. I never dated in high school, I was way to nervous to talk to to girls. Opened up more in my twenties and thirties. Now in my forties, I'll strike up a conversation with any woman (well any that shows interest anyway). I attribute that at least in part to stay fit and eating healthy and sticking to my 4 days at the gym regimen.

Shy women, I pay no attention to. I'm introverted myself and prefer more outgoing myself.

Maybe that's my problem?

Introverted is not the same thing as shy. Introversion is a way of thinking and processing information. Shyness has to do with timidity, nervousness, and a certain amount of fear.

They're not necessarily the same, but they can in instances share common traits. But my point still stands. If you're an introvert(shy or not), you need something opposite to balance.
