1.Appreciate  Those Things He Likes

 

Does he prefer to visit the park than to go to an arcade? Would he rather spend time with you indoors than to go out? Of course, you knew what you were getting into, so you should tolerate him.

Meanwhile, if you love going to the cinemas and he doesn’t, you could always set a time to see a movie with him (of course, the number of times would be limited). He would also want to go to the cinemas with you especially since you like it. In addition, does he like series such as Riverdale, G.O.T or American Horror Story? You could try seeing one or two episodes with him indoors. Who knows? You may even like at least one of them.


2. Never Force Him To Engage in PDA

Many introverts do not like engaging in a public display of affection. Your boyfriend may feel uncomfortable or shy, so if he does not like it, accept it. Fine, you may like it and may unconsciously do a little of the PDA, but he’ll just smile or smirk. You don’t have to force him to act the way you do. That may even be the cutest PDA people have ever seen.

3. Talk to Him Often

Introverts may not always have something to talk about. They do not have gossip from work or a social activity to engage in. This is your chance! Gist him about something funny that happened at school or at work. One thing about many introverts is that they like listening to stories, reading or watching movies or series.

4. Don’t “Kiss And Tell”

This isn’t literal. It means that whatever goes on in your relationship should not go beyond the knowledge of you and your boyfriend. Fine, he may not say so much about it, but please, never tell too many people about your problems.

If you need advise on your relationship problems, talk to people you can trust 100%. Moreover, do not act based on everything they tell you. Better still, just handle the issue like a woman and settle things with your boyfriend.

5.Always Remind Yourself that He’s an Introvert

Furthermore, when you have problems, remember that he is an introvert. This would help you understand how to react to certain challenges that you both have. However, don’t rub it in his face that he’s an introvert, and that’s the reason he behaves in a certain way. He may be heartbroken.

6.Never Ask For Space

 

This isn’t advisable. You can’t be sure of what some introverts may go through and they just shut you out. What if one of his family members passes away during the course of the ‘space’? You can’t be sure if you’ll know about it. He may not tell people, including you. You never can tell, so just don’t ask for space or accept if he asks for one.
