I'm a shy person and always have been...reserved, you might say. But I'm not shy with those I am close to. And as I've gotten older, I've developed more of an ability to communicate with people while still being reserved.
I married a man who is also shy, and over the years, he also developed more communication skills. He actually remarked that he was shy, but when he met me ...and me being shier than him ...it gave him confidence (with me).
That dynamic can be good ....but in an abusive, controlling marriage, it is not a good thing. Over the years, I learned that if I'm not going to continue being controlled and abused (along with our children), then I have to grow up and assert myself. And that's what I did. Where it comes to my personal safety and that of my children (and now, grandchildren), I have to take initiative to the best of my ability and with God's help. Shy or not, it doesn't need to be crippling.
So when I see you talking over and over about being shy and wanting a wife who is more shy .... that's very concerning to me. It's especially concerning because I have seen you express that you want to keep your wife at home. Tell me ....how do you expect to accomplish that? Would she be free to voice her concerns, wants, needs with you? Would she be free to go into town for regular life activities such as shopping, errands, or even have lunch with a friend now and then?
God hasn't called us to a life of isolation. If you can't interact with those around you or even smile and hold a conversation with a stranger you meet in the grocery store, how in the world do you expect to reach the lost? ....or do you even want to reach the lost?
