Guys, would you date a woman who... Had anxiety with many social activities? Who occasionally...

None of that has any bearing on who I would date. If I am interested in someone the last thing I look for is imperfections.
When you start dating someone its because your interested in all the positive things. You take the negatives right along with them. Its what relationships are about. No team is a perfect team.

I second what icedsky said, it's about the person and imperfections come with everyone. Doesn't make them any less loveable. And as someone who doesn't enjoy crowds much myself, I'd be thrilled to do more quiet activities.

That would be fine with me.
If I like and feel connected with, all those issues can be worked on over the time and both can be able to enjoy all the activities together, social or just two of us together. It’s all about caring and making feel comfortable and growing together.

I prefer a quieter setting myself especially in my golden years lol. But I'm also okay with being there for the bigger special occasions. I'm not one to jump up and go to a club or a bar scene or something like that. I like more intimate settings and quieter space.

I will be honest my ex-wife was that way and I tolerated her and her quirks, until she lied to me and cheated on me and she is my ex-wife.

Being that I am turning 60 years of age on May 11th, 2025, I am not sure how much I can tolerate now after being single 18 years.

If a woman wants to be with me then we would have to accept and endure embrace and support each other is all I know now to be my truth.

I have all of these issues and my partner knew this going in, and he's understanding supportive and has helped me grow

It wouldn’t put me off dating a girl at all, I might find it hard to deal with sometimes, but all relationships/people have things that need working out.

I wouldn't be with someone that uses a cellphone. They have to be a cash only, payphone only, table tennis card holder person

Am I being a bit too picky

Actually, they would probably clash with me. I'm a in your face, very obnoxious type person and like to around other humans.

I'm the life of the party. The person to be with me has to be able to keep up with me socially in public and be willing to meet hundreds a new people

It can be workable. I dated someone with several odd phobias and we were happy.

Answering for a friend.
He said," conquer your fears and problems first, before you date and cause another problem ".

Me, "yeah why not".

I would date a woman because I'm interested in her, whatever problems come up along the way, is a part of that and I would accept those problems 😊

GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M

A thousand times yes. So we can stay home together and I can cook for her.

IM5688 · 61-69, M

Sure, no problem. If I am taking her on a date, it's because I am interested in who she is.

You date a person whom you are attracted to. You then determine, when getting to know them, whether the attraction is such that you will help them grow through their anxieties.

If someone chooses to start with a person's obvious weaknesses they are blocking off the potential of many many people and looking to have a very lonely and shallow life.
