Dating/Friends With Introverted Guy

I'll keep you updated .

I do know what I want, but often times it can come out a bit "explosive" like I would tend to get excited over the littlest things that get me happy and I'm afraid that freaks the introverted person out or they start thinking I'm crazy. I don't want to act like a complete opposite. I say what I say is on my mind(not always a good thing ) and do things that can sometimes seem obsessive. Then when I realize what I am doing, it can be too late. I see the look on the other person's face like I'm a freak.
I can't control myself especially when I'm happy and comfortable, but for an introverted person it might scare them. So when I'm with him, it takes an enormous amount of control to just relax, nod, smile and keep my voice to a minimum, and not wave my arms around like a mad person. Maybe we are not compatible...

As long as you feel like you're being you. I'd recommend stop trying to think of him as an introverted person and instead thinking of him as, well, him. A lot of his personality could just be him, or your individual relationship with him and not based on introversion vs. extroversion.

Re: your edit: You might not be compatible but you also might be. You're early in a relationship and you're still figuring it all out.

Maybe "he's just not that into you." That's also a possibility.

Don't operate based on anything we say. Do what you do because you are an adult who knows what you want.

Thanks for your posts. And will do.

What does that "quote" even mean? I keep hearing it, and only watched a movie with that title half way. But what does that mean really?

It's a book. The gist of which is all these "signs" that women see and judge and try to figure out exactly how they mean that guy likes them.. probably mean he's not interested in you. Because if he were, he'd say it.

Amazon

I will check it out! These signs to see if its true or they are just false premonitions about a guy?

I warn you, I'm not a big fan of 'relationship' books. I think they espouse the authors' view on relationships not necessarily the reality for the individual relationship.

Anyway, the idea is that women make excuses for guys blowing them off or not saying the right words and it's all because 'he really loves me, he just...(fill in the blank)." When if the guy really liked the girl he'd actually call/show up/ say so.
