why do we shy away when we like someone?

Mostly because we all have a fear of rejection.  I would assume that is the leading cause.  Considering...  if I really liked a woman...  and she said she didnt like me.  Then I would be crushed because I wouldnt have a chance.  Sometimes ignorance is bliss...  :-D

I think most people are nervous when they are first with a guy they like but then that passes and you get more comfortable with them but if you mean a nervous creepy way then don't be around them.

because shy people don't go out, don't really try to make friends, and don't even try to get guys. outgoing people are more happy because they try life more and even when they fail, they learn from their mistakes. shy people also can be taken controlled of by other people.

some guys may be naturally shy and are afraid of rejection. try talking to him...sometimes you just need to make the first move.

I love shy and quiet people, because I'm that way myself. People don't 'dislike' us, I think it's just indifference on their part because they aren't sure whether we'd like to talk to them or not.

People in general are scared to death of rejection. If you like this guy and you think he likes you why not make it easy on him? You know, a little kiss on the cheek when you two are saying your good byes. Or maybe even just saying "Hey, I know you like me. And if you're wondering, I like you to" Then there isnt any questions left besides what size ring do you wear? :)

It is OK to be nervous, it could be that you are just not that comfortable with them. If you regret it later, spend some more time talking to them and getting to know them to make you less nervous. The more that you know about them will make you less likely to be nervous and have regrets.

because they feel too vunerable. if they do like someone and admit it then they risk the chance of being turned down and feeling crappy about themself. If they dont like you, they dont want to say that either cuz it might hurt ur feelings\n\nthey are protecting thier male ego

That means he likes you.  He is shy.

All the time, always come up with a reason not to talk to someone rather than a reason to talk to someone. \n\nit is the fear of being rejected and the fear of not being loved - it is hard to take, sometimes.

see i used to have a friend that liked me and we didn't talk anymore because i would get all shy around him. later on i really liked him so we got together and it really worked out because we knew a lot about each other because we were so good friends.

for me i am shy and it takes me time to gather up the nerves to talk to a girl I like. if he wants you for you and not just for sex then it should be a good sign that he is lingering or he may think that you are out of his league

It's gotta hurt 'coz you're not sure if the person you like, likes you too.  \n\nIt's torture when you dream of being with someone, you wish to confess your feelings for him (or her)...but something's holding you back.  Maybe what's holding you back is your fear of rejection.  \n\nBe brave and it'll hurt so good and not so bad anymore.  *wink*  Good luck!

cause you were shy first, then you got jealous, not your embarassed. Its normal. You like the guy but were shy and just didn't have enough courage to talk to him.  Listen don't feel akward, lift your head up high and tell how you feel and ask him what he thinks about you.  You broke the ice already now you can continue.
