The shyness might come simply because, around girls, you never know what to do: if you pay them any attention or show the slightest interest, you're a creep and need to get real about your nonexistent chances that they'd give you the time of the day; if you don't, you're a creep and a hypocrite who thinks he can conceal his---obviously unreciprocated---interest, in a dastard attempt to get them interested in you out of spite.
