Can someone talk me through what it's like dating a highly introverted guy?
When we are together he is really attentive, great listener, incredibly affectionate and loving, a very sweet guy.
However when we are apart communication is difficult, not too talkative on the phone, texts are sporadic, sometimes we ping back lots of texts back and forth, other times none for a day or so. He never ignores my texts.
I'm also introverted (to a lesser degree) and appreciate the need for distance. I'm also a believer in the 'rubber band theory' of men needing to distance themselves in order to ping back to you.
I guess I'm being a bit paranoid, but I tend to mirror what he does and wait for him to make contact, I just wanted to know of other people's experiences if you have dated introverts and is this generally the way it goes?
