I know what you mean. You don't want to hurt his feelings but he's developed a bad habit. What you do is talk to him honestly about how it's really stressing you out and the smart people on Yahoo Answers said that it may cause you to distance yourself from intamacy (meaning that it will hurt/delay your sex life which is NOT what he wants).\n\nIf you're at that point in your relationship, just pick a day/time/date where he can touch your chest all he (and you) wants, but that he needs to be a gentlemen the rest of the time.\n\nIf he's a good guy, he'll understand. Then whenever he tried, you remind him of his promise. He'll forget quickly, but learn eventually.

I think that if you are very shy, ask him in a note! \n\nThere's nothing that bad in writing your feelings down, but remember:\n\nIt's easier to write your feelings down, but to tell him in person will mean more to him.\n\nYou can do it! I know what ever decision you make will be a good one! See ya!\n\nHugs,\nkitties_n_llamas(Becca)

he's probably shy since he's only a child.  does he have any friends?  that could also be the possibility to why he has a low self-esteem.  ask him if there is anything bothering him, and hopefully he can open up and tell you.

Just relax and breathe...tell him your nervous and he will probably admit to the same.  Just both of you knowing that will probably help and be a conversation starter also.

sure it is possible but i imagine it would be difficult for both of you.  If you really dont see it going anywhere it maybe best to just end it now.  If he is really that shy, then maybe he is not for you.  I consider myself a shy person as well, but if a woman were to flirt with me, id have to be all into it.  Best of luck to you

well I really have to tell u this he ikes u but he is nervous and he will not tell u that becuz he is a guy and he will not admit things of that nature but u should not rush it or him to get comfortable with u just say little things to let him know it is ok .....point blank just make him comfortable dont by things u do dont force him to be

well it would help if you figured out why you are shy around him and than work on that. So if you are shy because for example you are scared what he might think of you than think well if he didnt want to be with you he wouldn't be so there isnt anything to worry. You are who you are and thats the way you find the one for you is by being true to yourself. Also let ssay you want to say something to him.. dont stay thinking about how you should say it or if you should as soon as it comes to mind say it so  you dont hae time to wonder if you should or should and your nerves would be there to torture you because you did it quick and got it out of the way.

Okay, okay, okay...\n\nHere's the thing. You said that he is shy. Why does that matter? If you get that feeling that he kind of likes you already then you just need to take the bull by the horns. Take him to a quiet place if you can and come out with it. Just tell him that you really like him. End with a kiss... and that's that. If he's really shy then he'll appreciate your being forward all the more.\n\nTake it from one who was once 'this really shy guy': he will be thankful for your honesty. Actually, when I was like that I had this girl stride up to me and start eating my face off. We were 'really good pals' after that, know what I mean?

Its never bad to be shy, not to mention.. shy guys are attractive

If you have honestly tried your best to fight your shyness with little , or no, success, you might need to go to the doctor, and be put on some medication for it. I, too, am shy, but I fight it every day, and "make" myself talk to people, and interact. Good Luck!!

I was in the same situation believe it or not.  He is just a little shy around you because he likes you. it looks like you kinda have to be the leader in this relationship because it sure doesn't look like he is. that's what i think.\nBest of luck

Look at it this way... you are going to lose him if you DON'T say anything!!\n\nThe only way to find out if he feels the same way is to tell him!   You might get a pleasant surprise!  He might be having the same shyness problem that you are having!\n\nTell him!!    Good luck!!

You really have to be an extrovert around shy guys and bring us out of our shells. We may have the major hots for you but unable to articulate that emotion into anything less than senseless jibbering when you are around. Ask the guy out- be bold, go do something together that puts you in close proximity without feeling like there is alot of pressue. Some guys will respond and there is room to grow and some guys might not. Believe me, if he likes you you should start to see him melt-but keep at it if the feeling is returned!\n\nGood luck!

try a love note and flowers.  sorry; i don't know a cure for shyness.  I used to be, but it's been fading recently.  Just try diving in and doing it.  If you start hesitating, just do it without thinking (worked about 50% of the time for me)

Your best bet is to learn his 5 basic "needs" and his "love language" and work on reopening the lines of communication. \n\nWhen you do that he can relax and feel more confident sharing his feelings with you. ( something he is probably uncomfortable doing. )
