Aw he's/she's shy, how cute! ...or not

No. Absolutely not. I'm mostly attracted to the type that do their own thing in a really quirky way. The best example I can think of is Zooey's character on New Girl.

I feel a little hypocritical saying that, because I think others perceive me to be pretty shy until they get to know me. I'm a little awkward to be around when you're first starting to get to know me, and until I feel comfortable around you, I'll be that way. But I never considered myself to be shy.
 
I have some very strong opinions on this.

Most people that say they like shy girls don't like shy girls - they like what the media depicts as shy girls. They want a girl that's mysterious and sweet, and just doesn't speak much - they don't want a girl that's terrified to meet a group of people she doesn't know. I've met plenty of guys that say they love shy girls and then never go for shy girls in reality; what they're looking for is the idea of a girl that is just shy enough for it to be a quirk, without being shy enough to have any negative impact on their social skills or life. If you date a shy girl, you're not going out every weekend. You're not going to tons of new places and meeting tons of new people with her. And if you're not okay with that, then you're not into shy girls. ARGH.

I'm not into shy men. I'm pretty shy myself, although I am getting better at it, and I prefer my partners to be somewhat more outgoing so I can leech off of their confidence to feel better in social situations.
 
Well I like people in general. But when it comes to the shy girls who I can find pretty, nice or whatever, I try to include them, make them participate to the chat for example, in order to avoid to set them aside.

I attracted by shy girls cause I don't like girls who speak to much about herself or try to be someone they are not, whatever talks, clothes or something else I don't really appreciate.
 
There's the shy, awkward types, and then there's the shy, but outgoing-once-you-get-to-know-them types. I personally am sort of attracted to the latter mainly because I would probably place myself into that category so I could relate :P Although I wouldn't say that I'd be attracted to them enough to pursue anything, but rather I find them endearing for some odd reason.
 
I don't find shy guys unattractive or attractive. I don't care if they're timid or obnoxious and so on, as long as their nice (in every sense of the word, might I add) I don't really mind. However, I would like for my eventual boyfriend to have a more outgoing personality as that is something I lack slightly so it would be a nice blend, I suppose.
 
My ex girlfriend was very shy. I had to ask her questions, and it was sometimes hard to get a conversation going. I kind of like shy girls because I'm a little shy myself. Since we have broken up, she is extremely talkative whenever we talk.

Somehow I suspect that she wasn't actually shy...

Why? Trust me, she was very shy. Granted, she got more talkative over the few years, but not by much.

Some girls like to play coy, and shy perhaps in order to get guys' attention? I don't know, that's my input, but I've met a couple girls who play around like that, and then they turn out to be these loud, obnoxious firecrackers.

Wow. I think your right, lol. I'm not good at all this kind of stuff.

Well, proves my point of why girls do it: works on some people XD But fear not, there's obviously girls who naturally shy, and will need time to warm up to people so not everyone's fake. Not that I'm specifically saying that your ex is one of those people though :c
 
It depends on how shy. If somebody is a little shy but still makes an attempt to talk, that's fine and perhaps cute. But if somebody straight up doesn't talk at all (which I have encountered before), then it's not cute because it makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong.
 
Yes I find shy girls cute. I'm quite shy myself so I'm not really drawn to outgoing girls irl. They scare me away ;;

If you date a shy girl, you're not going out every weekend. You're not going to tons of new places and meeting tons of new people with her. And if you're not okay with that, then you're not into shy girls.

This is heaven for me :D
 
Being shy myself when I meet someone of the opposite gender who is also shy it never gets anywhere because we're both ♥♥♥♥ing shy. I like outgoing guys better minus being obnoxious.
