As a teenager up until I was about 24 I was first a painfully shy and then gradually just a shy person. I would never initiate a conversation with a girl/woman. Looking back I realized that I never lacked for female companionship. I can understand why women would be attracted to a guy that was confident and outgoing but I never understood why women were attracted to shy guys. What is it about the shy guy that makes women bolder?
But seriously, it's a great gambit
What chick doesn't like to talk about herself, the quieter you are, the more she gets that opportunity.
You must have only gone out with stupid mindless chicks then. Only intelligent women talk about things of interest whereas stupid ones rattle on endlessly about silly mundane shit all about themselves. It's why men refer to it as bitching, and women are, and men are justified in recognizing it as such. Besides anyone, man or woman, who talks about themselves continuously are self centered and have no interest in the other party. Not a good impression and the reason most relationships fail. An appropriate relationship needs to be a fifty fifty proposition in order to be successful.
I would disagree with a portion of your post. Everyone I have met on this planet so far is self centered. Being shy afforded me the opportunity to observe human nature extensively. I use the natural instinct of humans to be about themselves to my advantage to this day. I remember having a phone interview that lasted almost an hour. Five minutes of that interview was spent on 2 questions that I answered. I interrupted the interviewer and asked 1 question about him personally and that was the rest of the interview. I was immediately hired.
So, you've never met a single soul who wasn't selfcentered, huh? While a rare occasion, it does happen. To say every human, except for you, is quite a stretch, or arrogant. Not sure which it is much you must not get out much. Either that, or the arrogant conclusion is spot on.
