A friend's house? (if I had a friend's house) LOL. I dunno. I was speaking hypothetically since this has never happened to me so I can only imagine so much, I guess.

"It" wasn't anything, again, this has never happened to me and I was speaking hypothetically. I don't have any idea where this type of thing would be happening.
If they won't come to you, you have to go to them. Introduce yourself by name and ask him he'd like to....(something non-threatening that you enjoy). It does work. You don't need to be anyone, but yourself.
For relationship material, I'd much rather a man be too shy, than be too bold. Somewhere in the middle would be perfect. Guys that are too outgoing are usually too busy to develop a quality friendship with, and I need to be real friends with someone before I consider dating them.
If he were a shy man, if I thought that we had some activities and many interests in common, I would definitely try for at least a friendship. I was very shy as a child, so I would sympathize with his ways. But I would also respect if he were to prefer remaining a private person with a solitary lifestyle.
Shy guys finish last. It has been proven. I have tested this myself in the market.
Shy guys are no different then some guy who is afraid of rejection.
Women prefer to be around guys that are outgoing and a player type personality.
I disagree. There is a big difference.
Someone afraid of rejection is just that. Afraid of rejection. A lot of guys are. They would still have a good shot if she approached or even gave clear signals.
A shy guy has an introverted, awkward perosnality. Even if a woman apporached him and asked him out, she would quickly be turned off by the timid personality. It is generally perceived as a sign of weakness. Yes there are women out there who are ok with it, but they are generally shy too....good luck finding them.
What I mean is that both lose out. The guy afraid of rejection could be a good flirter but does not close the deal (asking her out).
If a woman clearly asked out a shy guy then he would say Yes.

That's a double standard. SOME guys see shy girls as a 'challenge' whereas shy guys are weak?
The way women have been almost deified, how can you blame more men for having a fear of women?
Ladies, show that you're just people, not sex objects to be slobbered over, or to be worshipped, but people to be respected and treated just like his male friends.
Not to say throw our romance and stuff out the window, romance is different from friendship. Just start from a grounded base.
Since when are women deified? This would be news to a LOT of women!
