The confession on your department’s confession page on Instagram could have indeed been from him.
Especially, given how specific to your personality those personality traits resembled.
Also, asking the girl out on a date through a confession page would correlate with how shy this guy has been acting around you.
Being that you were the one who initiated conversation, it’s unlikely that your shyness is the reason why he has been acting this way towards you.
He has had ample opportunity to get to know you, thanks to your mutual friend, but hasn’t taken advantage of that.
It would seem that his behavior is more a result of his own personal insecurities as opposed to any adverse effects caused by your shyness.
This actually happens to be one of those rare cases where your shyness is not what is keeping this guy from interacting with you and pursuing the possibility of romance.
It’s more so his insecurities than anything else.
Your best friend’s assessment of how most guys react to an attractive woman is very astute.
Indeed, your attractiveness can be an impediment to getting approached.
Being attractive often means that you have to work even harder to be inviting with your body language if you want guys to approach you.
Do you know why your body language is negative towards guys?
Is it just your shyness or is there something else?
