I like your answer Listening Ears, but it does not answer the question at hand....
does it?
I don't think this is always the case, I think submissive men are attracted to dominent women. But not shy men, frequently submissive men are shy, but this is not always the case. I am extremely shy, but I am also a type A personality in a fairly extreme sense, I am simply not attracted to loud domineering women. I think it's more that we look for the puzzle peice that matches our personality style, two submissive people is ineffective, as would be to domininent.
ListeningEars said:I think a loud dominant woman is easier for a shy guy to figure out. She probably talks about her interests, and tends to mingle with more people, including said shy guy. The shy guy would have a much harder time meeting, let alone dating, a shy girl... simply because shy girls keep to themselves.
Maybe the girl is the one doing the pursuing and asking out and the guy acepts b/c it's easy. I dunno.
*takes a deep breath*cuz 2 shy people would be make things too awkward and if no one will step up the woman is going to obviously!
HAHAHAHAA, I so agree with you!*takes a deep breath*
To re-iterate, we are talking about shy guys here, NOT cowards.
And the title clearly defines the situation as that in which the shy guy 'goes after' the loud, dominant woman.
What more do I have to do to clarify this? The men seem to get it.
Bleh, sometimes I fear for my own sex.
Thank you.
That's actually what would turn me off about the loud, dominant woman (being not very loud or dominant myself). I've got nothing against 'em, but a girl like that would be surrounded by so many friends that I'd have better odds of hitting the jackpot than getting to know her as anything but loose acquaintances. Forgive me if I've generalized.Sorry, I was referring to my own experiences. If it's easier for a shy guy to attract a woman who is more forward, then that's like taking the easy way out. He doesn't have to worry about trying to talk to a shy woman, who is naturally more of a challenge.
I really don't get it
Please, anyone got any theories other than the 'opposites attract' one?
No. It's as simple as that.I really don't get it
Please, anyone got any theories other than the 'opposites attract' one?
No, all it means is you'll have tougher times getting dates.I'm a shy girl who goes after shy guys. Does that disprove the theory, or does it just mean it only applies to guys?
