I can't make heads or tails of this. This guy I'm crazy about is really shy/introverted but he always said, "Hi, (name!)" and talked to me, joked a little bit, etc. I always thought it was adorable how he seemed to get really nervous/clumsy around me (I do the exact same around him.)
I'm really into him, but I'm too shy to really flirt or express that. I wound up hinting to a friend of ours that I had a thing for shybro and I've got a hunch that mutual friend said something to shybro/outed me.
Saw him once after, he doesn't seem to talk to me or acknowledge I exist at all. It's the complete opposite of how we interacted before. I mean, he doesn't seem to avoid me, he still kind of hovers around/walks right by me, but he doesn't say hi or even smile at me anymore. I'm not sure if I screwed up or what. Is that a normal shybro thing? If it matters at all, we're in the late 20s age group.
yeah that's normal coming from a shy (for the most part) college guy. On good days, i'll say hi and stuff to my class mates other days I can't be bothered. So I think you still have a chance haha best not to overthink it.

I don't understand how you think someone who says hi to you is shy.

Well, I'm shy as heck, but I can say hi to people? It's really holding deeper conversation with someone I'm attracted to that scares the bejeesus out of me. Want it terribly, but just being too close to the person in question makes me stammer and want to hide under a rock.

He's into you. Work up the courage and see if he'll get some coffee with you some time
And don't tell that friend any more secrets, they obviously can't keep the secrets in

>late 20s
I'm shy and introvert and this only happens when I realize things might get complicated with the female friend I'm not really attracted to, I really don't know how to reject girls, so I just try to stay away.
Of course the situation changes when the girl takes initiative and comes on to me aggressively, because, let's be honest, most guys are horny, even shy guys.

Why don't you ask him out? Start with something simple. "The new whatever movie is opening this weekend - want to come see it with me?"

>I'm not sure if I screwed up or what
you probably scared him
otherwise he might have just been "using" you for socializing practice and does not see you as a gf
only 1 way to find out, ask him out like

but if he says no please just leave him alone maybe in a month or so he may think about it and change his mind but if you push too hard for sure it wont work
