7 Subtle Signs A Shy Person Likes You (Even If You Don't Think So)

Are you wondering if she likes you? Or signs that he likes you? Sometimes, someone can be so shy that the way they show that they like you might not be what you expect. For example, a shy person is more likely to text you instead of wanting to see you in person, because it is just too intimidating for them. A shy person is more likely to avoid your eye contact, but they blush when you look at them. If you're looking for the signs of attraction of a shy person, then this video could make your day. Lastly, a shy person is rarely if ever going to make a move, so you have to be the one to initiate if you want that date with them!

The most important thing in any relationship is caring for each other and having a sense of us-ness (sorry couldn't really find a word for it). And when dating someone who is really socially awkward, reserved or just really introverted you just have to take the time and grow into it together. Don't try to rush things or everything will just crash.

I'm with somebody for a year and a half who has social anxiety and is usually the awkward type when it comes to group settings. And here's what I've learned,

Everybody is different, not just a little bit different but radically different! Just because they are a bit awkward doesn't mean they fit every mould in your head.
So, I think we should just forget our expectations and observe people as who they are. And then decide what we like about them and what we don't. Please remember in a healthy relationship any unhealthy behaviour from either person has to be resolved through mutual agreement, communication and patience.

Also, spending quality time is key. Simply doing things both of you enjoy. Don't force yourself or your partner to do something you or they don't like. The former is the mistake I made. Just do simple things, nothing too extravagant. Your goal should be to grow closer, not impress the other person.
And for the awkward silences, in the beginning, you have to get used to asking most of the questions. But remember, not to go too deep too soon just stay on the same wavelength. Soon enough you'll get used to just sitting around, having coffee, just chilling together in silence. Sometimes even saying nothing and just being together can be the greatest gesture of affection!

Who else is shy and wants to see if this is accurate.

As a shy person I can agree with what’s being said. Each shy person uses variations of these.

[PsychToLight]

He smiles when he sees you.
He goes silent around you.
He listens attentively to you.
He stutters or trips up around you.
He blushes when you compliment him.
He asks a ton of questions.
He gets fidgety around you.
He volunteers to help you.

It's even better when you're a shy person who likes another shy person 😅

To be honest, I was struggling with mental health problems and I was always thinking low of myself without even knowing of what I was suffering with...but your videos helped me to understand mental health and psychology better...and now I know how to deal with such a

As a shy person I can guarantee that these are legit signs. I've done most of them every now and then

Ah yes I did all this around my crush who’s an extrovert. My shyness was so extreme that whenever he asks me to buy him something and give stuff, I literally walked backward towards him so I won’t have to make eye contact at all. I could barely make a sound. The day he confessed, he bought me cake while I wanted to give him a plushie. I walked towards him with my face and head wrapped with a towel and we exchanged gifts without making eye contact. Another one, my friend wanted to invite him to her room (we lived in a hostel) cuz we had extra food we couldn’t finish (and also cuz they wanted me to be closer to him). Obviously I freaked out and when I saw him coming, I ran behind the door screaming and hid in the toilet. Yes it was really extreme. I was dying of cringing while doing it, but was worthwhile since he found it quite fascinating. Fast forwarded to present day, he’s now my bf of almost 3 months!

Whoever is reading this, I pray that whatever you’re growing through gets better and whatever you’re battling with makes your situation better as you’re continuing to be a better person each day. I have faith that you’ll turn out great as your circumstances will change. Have a fantastic day! You got this! 🤗💪🏼❤️

watching this as a shy person to make sure i don’t do any of these so they can’t tell

[book_alchemist]

I have a crush on this one person, but they are really really quiet and shy- so I'm trying to observe 😭

[maddyeclaire]

Oh my word, if only I could have seen this video months ago!! This just made me realize not only do I do these exact things with my crush, my crush does them too! I’ve been overlooking them. Everything makes so much more sense! I was seeing his lack of engagement as him being uninterested, not shy. I can recognize now that I definitely fall into this same category. The thing that I can relate to doing the most is not being able to make much eye contact and having to look away and only glance, my feelings being too strong and overwhelming that I just can’t 😝😊

[Slymation]

Thanks to your videos I’ve been able to figure out that nobody has feelings for me

[psychoweasley]

I’m not shy at all until it comes to romantic feelings. Like, I’m waaaay to good at hiding my feelings and acting normally, so people don’t think I’m shy, but can never tell if I like them

My crush is the cutest guy ever. We go to the same tuition together and we always sit next to each other and study together. I’ve watched all these types of videos to look for signs that he likes me back and boy, I feel like he watches these as well. He is a true gentleman to me and showers me with compliments and teasing. With other girls, he is your typical chaotic guy best friend who insults you from time to time. I feel so calm and safe around him whenever I feels stressed at some point in my life. I want to ask him out but I occur as a uptight, smart girl who is very loud. I worry that I may be reading his signals wrong.

This was very helpful... Love is a very hard thing to understand. But it's a normal part of life! Love can end up healthy, negative, or unhealthy. I've never felt love yet... and this helped me understand what love is actually like. Love can start with something small, Like having a conversation at lunch! Thanks for this, It helped me understand a little more! :)

[zukofanclub]

this is so accurate for me. i’m constantly struggling with eye contact and i look away as soon as i see him glancing at me. i also stalk his social media but can never talk to him lollll
