It’s easy to assume introverts have no attractive qualities to offer, but by having a closer look, you should think otherwise. Here are 16 strong reasons why introverts are so attractive.

Introverts are very much attractive and they are always in a world of their own.

They are beautiful yet out of reach, and they are surrounded by mysteries and secrets.

In a world where everyone is looking to show off, they would rather sit and observe things.

People always see introverts as shy and reserved, making them unattractive.

Well, this assumption isn’t true, as introverts are by nature, quiet, confident, and mysterious like the introverted James Bond!

They don’t usually open up, and it’s not because they are shy, they are just always extra careful about inviting others to their world.

But once they do, your eyes may start to open to some of their attractive qualities.

Here are 16 reasons why introverts are considered so attractive.

1. They are deep thinkers

A 2008 study found that compared to extroverts, it takes introverts a longer time to process information.

The reason, according to the author of The Introverted Leader: Building on Your Quiet Strength, Dr. Jennifer Kahnweiler, is because introverts process more thoughtfully than extroverts.

To her, introverts, take more time to understand an idea before moving on to something new.

So yes, introverts are well-known for being deep thinkers who spend most of their time alone.

This is a safe place for most introverts as they can critically think and ponder about life and all that goes on within their heads.

They typically take the time to think and understand everything that is going on in the world.

When an introvert speaks, you can bet they’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the topic, establishing their ideas, and carefully selecting their choice of words.

2. They think before they speak

Introverts not only think deeply when in solitude, but they also ensure they think deeply before saying a word when having a conversation.

Speaking with Psychology Today, Psychologist Laurie Helgoe says that introverts like to think before responding.

To her, introverts prefer to plan out what they want to say ahead of time and they seek evidence before expressing their thoughts or ideas.

This is in contrast to extroverts who are comfortable thinking while speaking.

While exchanging words back and forth can look attractive, there is evidence that heterosexual women prefer men who speak in shorter sentences and use fewer words.

3. They are dreamers

You may have noticed that our best ideas come out of nowhere when our minds are elsewhere.

Contrary to public belief, it is not a waste of time to dream.

A mind that wonders help in the process of “creative incubation. This is according to psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman and colleagues.

Introverts have a habit of getting lost in their thoughts and emerging with new and exciting ideas.

And because of the way they treat you and let you in on interesting, new possibilities, you get fascinated and feel like a part of the magic when you’re with them.

4. They don’t fake

Introverts don’t put up a show as they say exactly what they believe. They don’t just say yes because it’s what everyone else is saying.

This makes people find them attractive because they have their own opinions and speak up for themselves.

This also means that they hardly follow the crowd just to please others.

They buy that new dress because they genuinely like the design, not because everyone is buying or wearing it.

Rarely will you find them living that usual fake social media luxury lifestyle, as we typically find with others?

They simply do things for good reasons, not to impress others.

5. They are more sexually selective

Yes, the picky nature of introverts extends to their sex life as well.

Studies have shown that extroverts are more likely to be laid than introverts.

The statistics of the research show that male extroverts had sex 5.5 times per month, while the male introverts only have it 3 times per month.

This shows that introverts are mostly about quality connections and relationships, so it’s not a surprise that they’re selective in the bedroom.

6. They don’t do things just to please people

Introverts aren’t interested in pleasing others.

They are unconcerned about social acceptance as they are at ease in their skin.

They do not go around seeking validation from others as they make a decision based on what their guts instinct think is right, not based on what others think.

This does not mean they are blind to people’s opinions, as following the crowd isn’t always a bad move.

7. Like a puzzle, they are difficult to solve

While extroverts put everything out there for everyone to see, introverts are more reserved and only tell you what they want you to know and when they want you to know it.

They are good at disclosing only small amounts of information, and they do this to arouse the curiosity of someone they care about.

This shortage or trail of information is not only aimed to attract someone but also serves as a test to see if the person they’re aiming to attract is worth the emotional commitment.

This is more important for introverts since they’re more likely to have fewer, yet more intimate connections.

The joy is in the chase, and an introvert knows how to make it more rewarding.

8. They are creative

Introverts are creative people who know how to think out of the box when necessary.

Without introverts, the world would be devoid of the theory of relativity, the theory of gravity, Chopin’s nocturnes, Proust’s In Search of Lost Time, W. B. Yeats’s “The Second Coming,” etc.

This is according to author Susan Cain in her book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking.

The study conducted by psychologists Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and Gregory Feist has shown that introverts are generally the most remarkably creative people in various disciplines.

This is more so since solitude is an essential component of creative success, and introverts value privacy and don’t mind being alone.

When alone, introverts can connect with their inner self, exercise their creative muscles, and ask the right questions.

Introverts are generally considered remarkable and attractive due to their natural ability to focus intently on a subject, think, and act creatively when in solitude.

9. They are hard to win over

One of the most prominent qualities of an introvert is their inaccessibility.

They find comfort in their own space while taking the time to form bonds with others even though they may take a long time to warm up to strangers.

It takes a lot of effort to win introverts over, which is why individuals work hard to keep their relationships with introverts going after they’ve been formed.

This makes them appealing as they make you strive for their attention because they expect you to work for it.

Also, to make them feel at ease around you, you must find common interests, have something meaningful to talk about, and be willing to form a proper relationship.

Without these, it may be difficult to catch their attention.

This is an unplanned and tasking stage for someone looking to connect with them.

The final result, however, is connections that will last a lifetime.

10. They use their power more effectively

Extroverts may be the loudest in the workplace, but introverts have the edge when it comes to wielding real power.

In a research conducted by the Harvard Business Review, 17,000 C-level executives, including 2,000 CEOs were examined.

It was discovered that more than half of the best-performing CEOs (according to directors and investors), were introverts.

This shows that, for introverts, action speaks louder than words, and that the loudest employee isn’t always the smartest or the most productive.

Conversely, that a worker is quiet doesn’t make them dumb or unproductive.

11. They are intelligent and studious

Anyone would rather spend time with someone knowledgeable and ready to learn than with someone ignorant and unwilling to learn.

Do not be surprised to find the brightest brains in the classroom to be introverts.

This is because, by nature, introverts are readers and learners.

They love learning new things and figuring them out for themselves.

And, despite their reputation as bookworms, they are intelligent, which makes them attractive.

12. They are loyal

A relationship, whether personal, social, or commercial, demands a significant investment of time and energy on the side of an introvert.

This is why introverts aren’t always on the lookout for the next big thing, a new relationship, or the next link that will help them climb the corporate ladder.

They will remain invested in you no matter what happens if they have put their time and energy into you.

They’ll defend you when no one else would, and they’ll stick by your side when everyone else has turned their back on you.

They’re devoted, but if you burn them too many times, they’ll forget about you just as fast.

So, avoid taking their loyalty for granted.

13. They are great listeners

As stated by introvert and author of The Introvert Entrepreneur: Amplify Your Strengths and Create Success on Your Terms, Beth Buelow, introverts are naturally open to active listening.

She says, “We tend to be the friend or colleague you can call on when you have good news or you’re upset. We’re going to be able to listen and be with you, without turning it around and making it about us.”

People who talk more than they listen may be disliked by others.

This is because it’s possible that they’re more interested in getting their point over than in having a meaningful conversation.

Introverts, on the other hand, are appealing due to their active listening skills.

People are drawn to them because they speak less and listen more, coupled with their ability to observe people beyond what they say.

They are very cautious and pay special attention to details.

Their concern for others is very genuine, and this demonstrates their empathic qualities.

They can form meaningful bonds with others and connect with them on a deeper level than words can convey.

Also, they are compassionate by nature, so they don’t just listen; they also take mental notes and remember important details about the individuals they meet.

14. Being around them is easy

Generally, introverts are a pleasure to be around as they avoid the spotlight in the same way that vampires avoid sunlight.

If you enjoy being in the spotlight when out with friends, then having an introverted friend would make more sense as you won’t have to worry about competing for attention.

They’re simply pleased to be spending time with you and are content to let you take center stage.

They don’t appear to want or need to be the center of attention as they have no desire to create a big impression on those around them.

They simply want to take at the moment, relax, and appreciate the company they are with.

15. They are mysterious

Introverts are mysterious and mystery attracts everyone.

People always want to know what their thoughts are, but they will never fully understand them.

As a result, introverts are incredibly fascinating and intimidating at the same time.

This is not surprising considering how misunderstood they are by the more outgoing and vocal members of our society.

16. They are easy to please

It’s rare to come across an introvert who is unreasonable or difficult to work with.

Their accommodating quality remains one of their most attractive traits.

This isn’t to say that introverts aren’t offended or uncomfortable in certain situations.  It just indicates that they are more tolerant.

This is an attractive quality since everyone admires someone easy to get along with.

Despite the misconception that introverts are difficult to please, it only requires a small amount of effort to please them.

This makes them stand out and enjoyable to be around.

Conclusion

Introverts are great people with attractive qualities.

Standing from afar, all you may blindly see as guided by your assumptions is a shy, timid individual with no attractive qualities.

So, you may need to go close enough to better understand and appreciate why people see them as very attractive.
