6 Tips to Deal With a Shy Boyfriend
4. Communicate in writing
Introverts may find it awkward to converse with people when they are physically in front of them, but they can be amazing conversationalists when they are online or when they are writing. Take advantage of this fact and interact with your boyfriend online. It could be via his blog or social media pages. Use social media to show him off to your friends if that is something you cannot do well in person.
5. Curb your expectations
You will be taking the wrong path from the very beginning if you expect outgoing behavior from your shy boyfriend. It will be like fitting a round peg in a square hole. Have low expectations from your boyfriend from the very start. This will keep you from getting disappointed again and again. You can gradually raise your bar as your relationship proceeds.
6. Compliment him often
One of the ways in which you can increase your shy boyfriend’s confidence is by stoking his ego and complimenting him often. If he feels good about himself, he is likely to be at ease with himself in front of others. Doing things to increase your boyfriend’s self esteem and self image will go a long way in dealing with his shyness more effectively.
