How can I get this guy to see I'm not shy?

Tagged as: Dating, Friends<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (1 January 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 1 January 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I like this guy who is a friend of a friend. I've know him for about three years, but in that whole time I've probably only met with him 7-8 times maybe. Not a lot anyway. I talk to him on IM sometimes too. But the thing is this, I spoke to him about seeing how a relationship would work between us two.

He said he'd think it over and his answer was no. He said I'm great and all, but I'm too shy for him. But I'm not actually shy at all. Because of past friendships, I just prefer to really get to know a person before I open up. How can I get this guy to see that I'm really not shy without seeming fake?

Thanks for any help x

Well. There two ways you could look at this, One:He's not good enough for you because any man that feels the need to change a woman has problems.

or Two: That you really and truly like him and have no intentions on chasing after anyone else. If this is the case, Knock the flirting up a notch. Be sassy even if your talking to him on IM! Tell him stuff like, Oh i have to shower. Or, Dmn hold on, i just spilled soda all over my new skirt.

if you peek his intrest enough im sure you'll get good results.
