I'm wondering if it happened to any ladies here and why your feelings changed?

I decided to give one guy a chance after having put him on the back burner, I had reservations about him...but I was glad I gave him another try, we ended up dating for about a year. He's a great dude, but no epic romance sprung up between us. It wasn't meant to be a forever thing but it was nice for a while. I didn't outright reject him but I was very close to ghosting him, reached out after a few weeks had gone by and no better prospects turned up.

Then the one I was not sure about but was willing to go along further and see how things went, and he grew on me and grew on me. I never rejected him, but I went from uncertain to arse-over-teakettle-in-love in the space of some 6 months. Still with him.

That's probably the closest it gets. If I have said a definite "NO" then it's never changed over time, though. It's only the ones I was not fully yes or no on, who got additional chances with me later.

Yes, my now husband tried to get me to hang out and date him when we worked together. I rejected him several times for over 6 months.

We've been married for almost 27 years now. So it can happen, but don't go all stalker on her or anything. That never works.

I have. Only this one time though. It's actually my current situation.

I met him over a year ago and at first I wasn't interested at all. Even though he was attractive (not suuuuper hot though) I just thought he's not my type etc etc.

Fast foward to now, I'm in love with him. The first impression I had of him just wasn't correct at all. He turned out to be the funniest guy I've ever met, he constantly makes me laugh tears, being with him is easier than with anyone I've ever been with, relationshipwise and friendshipwise. We're very similar personalities and I trust him with my life. I'm extremely comfortable around him and can be myself. All of these things have changed my mind.

Yeah, my husband. He was extremely shy and didn't talk much then. I gave him another chance and we hit it off!

No so don't sit around waiting for someone to change their mind.

I think many women pass over shy good guys for the exciting losers... and salesman

shy good guys come on slow...out of respect....

remember the most confident man at the dance already has a woman home (he has nothing to lose)
