Too shy
Too nice

These are code for what exactly? Obviously lack of interest, but why would they use these, instead of just lack of interest? No, not to spare feelings or anything like that. It's code for something, but what?

Oh well, I suppose I should just continue to take them as ques to end it and move on?

I think some people may use them as a description of someone who was being cautious and taking their time getting to know them and the first person really doesn't want to take that long.....

Does that make sense?huh

That the person is not willing to open up and tell/do anything right away, yes.

Not everyone is an open book and in today's "rush and do it yesterday" mentality and that is okay....do things in the time that is right for you....anyone worth knowing, is worth taking your time and not rush it.

Maybe it is not code at all. Maybe you are just too nice or too shy? I never look at them as codes or signs of anything really. Some people really do have an issue with really nice men/women and/or really shy men/women. Also, many others find it intimidating and unnerving to deal with in many cases, especially when dealing with the opposite types for years.

"too"....means you ain't gonna get laid.

Sorry.

Maybe it was just a way the person thought they were not going to hurt your feelings?


To be honest, when I hear the words 'too nice' the first thing I think of is boring. I don't mean that there's anything wrong with being nice, but someone who can keep things interesting, works much better. No matter how nice you are, if there's no challenge from the other person, sometimes the other person will move on. For me, someone who can keep things mentally and physically exciting is a good thing.

I'm good at reading people. I can usually tell if some one is being honest. When those excuses are used, it's not always true. Sometimes people are just too afraid of hurting others due to their own selfish issues, or just like to play games.

If someone is interested in me, yet they're too shy, that means they're too shy. It isn't code for anything.

"Nice" is a bland way to describe someone. I'm not sure what it's a "code" for, though.

I am pretty boring. That's not a put down or anything, it's just true.

Seems to be code for uninteresting or something, but not sure.

What's boring to one person, won't be to someone else.
