Meh. I'm sure some guys do. I don't. I would assume that's because I've rarely managed to win "the chase" or indeed get very far with it. But that's not to say that if a girl was just like "ZOMG YOU'RE A SEXY BEAST, I WANT YOUR BABIES!" that I'd like it. I mean there's a difference between comming on strong and being straight with someone about what you want. Personally I wouldn't mind a girl asking me out on a date, or just even giving CLEAR signals she's into me, even though I must admit that I wouldn't enjoy a girl throwing herself at me.

Classic catch 22.

We lose either way! Women rarely give clear signals, and if they do it is likely they are throwing themselves at us and we don't want them.

Rather than trying to figure out the likelihood of her liking a shy guy by representative statistics of the MI opinions, I suggest that you try to get to know her as friends first. The friends stage works well for shy guys, you get to know her better, which increases the likelihood of a successful relationship, and you get more comfortable with her presence and it'll be easier for you to talk to her and thus ask her out.
Talkative or confident, because there's a difference. Whereas I would say women don't go for Conceited, talkative men, I would say that women respond to confidence when it isn't arrogance (which confuses the bejesus out of me, because I'm the most arrogant S.O.B. walking this planet - and take pride in it.) I'd say that if he has a certain girl in mind, nothing can beat just walking up and taking control of the situation...Unless of course he's blown it and is in the friend zone. Which always sucks, because you may as well be in the "gay best friend" group at that stage.

No, that's a queue to get right on that and do something before she loses interest or assumes you're gay for being to damned dumb to respond.

I think girls like guys that treat them right. Most of them like guys who are friendly, honest, caring, etc..a guy who is willing to be their best friend. A guy that is shy or outgoing can both meet the above criteria meantioned. It all comes down to personal preference, there is no concreate answer for this one.

These are all things women say they want. When too many of these traits are present in a male that they are with or potentially attracted to, they often lose interest...
