Sometimes it’s really hard to figure out whether or not a shy guy likes you.
But here are the signs you can watch out for that will tell you once and for all if that special shy guy really likes you.
Yes, it’s hard to know if you should give a shy guy a shot, simply because you’re not sure if he’s really interested in you or not.
Nobody wants to waste time right?
Here are some telltale signs that will help you find out if this man is really worth your time.
How to Tell If a Shy Guy Likes You
Sign 1 – You’ll Catch Him Looking
A shy man just doesn’t want to be caught looking at you, so he’ll try to be very discreet.
He’ll only sneak a peek when he thinks you’re not watching.
Shy men are trying to find out if they really like you and if they do, it won’t take long for them to get bolder with you.
But for now, he’ll try to get a look at you while he’s backstage.
Sweetly affectionate… Get used to it.
Sign 2 – He’s Looking Very Uncomfortable In General
Undoubtedly, this is a difficult sign to find out, because it can seem like he’s not paying attention to you.
What you need to consider is that he might be so anxious and nervous around you that he’s ready to feel sick and throw up.
It may take a little time to get comfortable and willing to warm up with you.
Trust comes when he feels he can trust you.
Give him the time he needs because a shy guy might be the perfect match for you if you give him a chance.
Sign 3 – This Guy Is Being Totally Clumsy
Does this man always drop his pen or his glasses when he’s around you?
Can he “accidentally” try to drop something in front of you to get your attention?
Is he having trouble with his own cup or bumps into objects and drops them?
What you need to do is look at it positively and with an open mind.
Don’t make him feel bad.
Let him do what he wants and try to add a little humor to him to ease the tension.
Sign 4 – He’s Treating You Very Differently
One thing is for sure: if a shy man really likes you, he will treat you differently than any other girl.
Maybe he runs to get you a drink instead of paying attention to another girl.
It can certainly make other girls a little jealous, but who cares, he has eyes for you and that’s magical.
Sign 5 – This Man Is Willing To Share His Deep Dark Secrets With You
It’s hard to trust someone quickly.
Even a common man might not want to open up to you to share the secrets he keeps with you, which, of course, is totally normal.
Just give this shy guy the opportunity to get to know you a little so he can open up and let you in.
It will take some time, but if you don’t push him and let him know that you’re happy to hear what he wants to share with you, then you’re on the right track.
If he’s asking you for advice or sharing little secrets with you, then you’re on the right track.
Maybe he’s so shy that he doesn’t want to share any kind of secrets with anyone but you.
Sign 6 – This Guy Gets Very Jealous When You Talk About Any Other Man
If a shy guy gets mad that you’re talking about any other man, well, you just killed the charade!
Shy guys aren’t as confident as you might be used to and he’ll be seriously hurt if you’re talking about a man other than him.
This signals to him that you really don’t like him.
You better clear this up quickly or the shy guy won’t be your prize.
Sign 7 – He Just Loves What You’re Doing
I know this is a little vague, but it couldn’t be more true.
A man who is shy and totally interested in you will ask what you did during the day or on the weekend.
He might even try to get involved with the things you enjoy doing just to get more involved.
Maybe he joins a group you sport in or just shows up at an event you’re at.
When he shows interest in you for you, what you love and like, this shy guy is telling you that he wants your attention and that only means good things.
Sign 8 – This Special Shy Guy Asks If He Can Be Your Friend On Social Media
How sweet is that?
What’s really interesting about social media is that you don’t have to be face-to-face with someone to have a conversation.
However, if this man is following you on Facebook or Twitter, or better yet, commenting on your posts, then you know that this shy man likes you.
Do I need to say more?
Sign 9 – His Friends Are In “Taunt” Mode
If his friends are whispering as you walk by or joking around with you, that’s a good thing.
If a man is discussing you with his friends, it means something.
He likes you and, shy or not, he’s not ready to tell you.
Don’t worry, he’ll be able to count on time.
Just be patient and understanding and it can happen for you.
Sign 10 – He Just Can’t Bring Up The Courage To Ask You Out
Shy guys are often afraid to act.
He can only be afraid that you will reject him if he asks you out.
Please don’t take this the wrong way.
Maybe he’s just waiting for you to take the first step?
If you like him, you should take a chance, don’t you think?
Otherwise, you’ll never know what could have been.
Sign 11 – He Will Defend Himself
Maybe your friends are making fun of you.
But if a shy guy defends her, it certainly means something.
Maybe he just doesn’t know what they’re saying, but if he comes to your defense anyway, that means he might be interested in you.
Signal 12 – This Guy Pays Attention to Small Details
There is no doubt here.
A shy man will pay attention to the smallest details.
He will remember his first teacher and his favorite pet.
He will also likely have his work schedule memorized.
When a guy “really” likes you, shy or not, he will remember all the little details that might not matter to anyone.
Maybe egg whites are your favorite breakfast?
Maybe you can’t stand the smell of olives at the supermarket?
How do you drink your coffee?
A shy guy who remembers the little things that really matter to you is directly telling you that he likes you.
That has to be worth something right?
Sign 13 – This Man Will Put Himself at Risk for You
Maybe your shy man likes to be backstage, but if someone is making fun of you, he might take it personally and take offense.
Not for the wrong reasons, but for the right ones.
In short, this shy and special man has you covered and that’s magical.
Sign 14 – He Will Do Anything For You
Maybe your shy man doesn’t like socializing as much but is uncomfortable with being comfortable making you smile.
This is not for him.
When you’re with his friends, he always tries to involve you in group conversation.
The last thing he wants is for you to feel left out.
Even if he is not normally talkative, he will try to speak for you.
Signal 15 – Mixed Signals May Be The Norm
This is a push-and-pull thing.
One day, your shy guy might come right over to talk to you, and the next day, he won’t pay any attention to you.
This is a difficult question, but you need to look at it in a positive light.
Maybe he’s just nervous on your side, even capable of having panic attacks.
Give him the benefit of the doubt, please.
Sure, he might confuse you, but that doesn’t mean he’s not into it!
Sign 16 – A Direct Face-to-Face Contact Is His Way
If a man likes you, shy or not, he’s going to face you directly instead of standing aside.
This is just a clean and discreet route to let you know he really likes you.
Signal 17 – Keeping the Door Open Is The Norm
It just goes back to the old idea of chivalry, where a man puts a woman first and shows her the little things.
If he’s going out of his way to open the door for you, it’s important that you see it as a sign of his efforts to connect with you… he just wants you to appreciate his efforts, that’s all.
Sign 18 – He Acts To Befriend The Way He Can With Your Best Friends
What this means is that he is paying attention and understands who is important to you and is trying to make a good impression on him or her as well.
He knows that the important people in your life will have a voice to influence you or not.
That’s incredibly powerful, don’t you think?

What does this mean?
That he’s crazy about you.

Sign 20 – He Is All Ears
When a guy really listens to what you have to say, that’s really great.

Make sure you don’t miss the simple but effective signal, or you could waste a lot of time.
Sign 21 – This Man Is Always Willing To Help You No Matter What
It doesn’t just mean that he will help you when he feels the need.
It also means that he will contact you when bad things happen and you need him badly.
Maybe your computer has crashed or you need help with a test to run.
It doesn’t really matter, because a shy guy who likes you will step forward and help you out.
He won’t question or judge you, he’ll just reach out to help you.
Sign 22- This Guy Is Always Smiling From Ear To Ear
Shy guys often have trouble smiling and this is usually because they are too nervous.
But if a man is smiling around you whenever he gets the chance, that means a lot.
Shy guys are often very afraid to smile, so be aware of that.
However, if you catch him out of the corner of his eye smiling at you, you already know it’s a sign he likes you.
This guy likes you and maybe doesn’t know how to show you yet.
Encourage him, stay open, inviting, and positive, and he’ll find the courage to ask you out and more.
When a man is smiling at you, don’t forget, he’s into it.

Pay attention to the signs that show he likes you and the signs that he doesn’t, and you’re well on your way to getting the shy guy of your dreams.
