For those who have timid/shy/introverted/guarded SO’s, how did gain your interest/affection/desire? How can a man in his 20s approach a woman he likes/is attracted to? How can he broach the fact that he likes you/is attracted to you successfully?

I’m new to r/AskWomen, I’m sorry I broke Monday’s rule. I didn’t know at the time of posting this, but I really appreciate your reply.

It definitely has to be a 2-way street, with reciprocated effort. It seems the dinner gathering between your study group was your idea. Makes me think about the old adage, “opposites attract.” Although he is only introverted among the four traits I mentioned, would you say you’re outgoing/extroverted? Seeing some of my friends together with complete opposites makes sense to me, I imagine if I was with a girl not dissimilar enough from me it would not be a good recipe for either of us; I’d imagine I’d regress and amplify my homebody/hermit like traits, which can’t be good.
