tonight on average joe this guy tony (who was a wonderful guy) got rejected and kicked of the show. the reason was that he was too serious and shy and needed to "lighten up." im shy and serious like him too. why cant people understand that maybe we have a reason for being serious? is it such a horrible thing to be?  my insecurities could eat me alive.

When you are shy and serious and go on a tv show like that, it is almost like a recipe for disaster. The average viewer of those shows are people who want to see a soap opera. They want see hotshots and"action". They don't care about the people. That's it. And that guy didn't fit in, because he would probably not bring in the excitement wished for. It's not a horrible thing at all. I like shy people, because I don't feel "oppressed" by their presence. I don't mind people who are serious. Though I like it when they are able to crack a smile, which they obvious can, just not as easily as others may. But tha can be seen as a challenge  |

I'm sure they can understand that there could be a reason for the seriousness. And what some of us need to understand is that some women are not turned on by shy seriousness.
I know I'd prefer a woman who liked to have fun. I could be great friends with a shy, serious girl. But if I didn't see a fun side eventually, friendship would be as far as that relationship would go.

What B said, exactly. I've recently started dating a somewhat shy, serious woman. I am waiting and hoping for her lighter side to show - and I realise that, as a shy person, it may take some time for her to feel comfortable enough to be fun and silly. It does me. However, as B said, if she can't loosen up, or just is always serious, we will at best be friends. For my part, I'm working on letting my silly and fun side out to make it easier for others to also be so.
And yeah, the people on TV "reality" shows are generally chosen because they'll put on a good show - where you and I would be dull watching.
