Dating Shyness
Being honest about shyness on a dating site?
I’m mainly interested in responses from females on this topic.
I’m considering joining a dating site at some point. Would it be a good idea to be open and honest in my site profile about being a shy guy? I actually have social anxiety-like problems. I would want someone to know that I’m a shy person before meeting them so they would know what to expect.
So many of the dating site profiles I look at are exactly the same. People talk about themselves in exactly the same way — “I’m a fun-loving, down-to-earth person”, etc. It’s boring, really. Would a little honesty, even about a personal flaw, be refreshing? A guy I talked to on a social anxiety site admitted his social anxiety in his dating site profile and got good responses and is currently dating a girl with social anxiety.
I think its best to tell the truth & to be honest but not too personal. Telling small flaws like “i bite my nails” or something is good, but telling really personal things is a bad thing and should be kept quiet untill you acctually know someone quite well.
Be brave & show em what your made of!
