My husband is very confident. I suppose his confidence shows most in the way that he lives his life--he makes choices based on his own beliefs and doesn''t really care what others will think about it.

It always surprises me when we get around friends, because I forget that he is actually a shy, quiet person (around others). He's not like that when it's just us two. He's very confident in his beliefs though, and that shows no matter who he is around. He is very secure in who he is.

My DH is confident yet shy in personality. To me that is a perfect combination as he seems gentle, speaks softly, yet is really very firm with his principles and beliefs. He will stand up and fight for what is right without raising his voice or making a drama like some others I know. So yes, I love DH for it~!

In some ways he is, in our relationship, in his work/ability to be a good dr. he is very confident.
When it comes to making friends and meeting new people, not so much.

Sabine - my husband is the same way. He''s confident in his work and he works hard at what he does. When it comes to friends and meeting new people though, my husband''s very quiet and reserved. He''s an observer but not much of a conversationalist at times. He likes watching interactions with people and he contributes to conversations when he feels that he has something important to say. Otherwise, he''s fairly quiet. To be very honest, I''ve had to get used to this over the years -- it REALLY bothered me in the beginning because I hoped that he wouldn''t come across as anti-social/not interested to others.

Vc -- that''s so funny! I wonder what would happen if we ever got them in a room together. Either they''d never shut up or they''d watch us chat and chime in only at the ''important'' parts. That''s what my husband calls it. He''s not one for idle chit-chat or making small talk. Me, I''m quiet too, but I can be a chatty Cathy as well. I can hold my own at parties. Him -- not so much.
