I think it means they are afraid of intimacy...doesn't mean they're not interested...\nIt could mean they're shy too which is another way of saying the above...

Shy-Drager Syndrome\n\nMultiple system atrophy with autonomic failure, also called Shy-Drager syndrome, is a progressive disorder of the central and autonomic nervous systems. The disorder is characterized by postural hypotension--an excessive drop in blood pressure which causes dizziness or momentary blackouts upon standing or sitting up. There are 3 types of Shy-Drager syndrome: Parkinsonian-type which may include symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as slow movement, stiff muscles, and mild tremors; cerebellar-type which may include problems such as loss of balance and the tendency to fall; and combination-type which may include symptoms of both types 1 and 2. Parkinsonian symptoms and symptoms of autonomic dysfunction such as constipation and sexual impotence in males predominate early in the course of the disease. Constipation may be unrelenting and hard to manage in some patients. Shy-Drager may be difficult to diagnose in the early stages; however, within a year of onset most patients develop postural hypotension. For the majority of patients, blood pressure is unstable--often fluctuating up and down--and causes severe headaches. Other symptoms may also develop, such as generalized weakness, double vision and/or other vision disturbances, impairment of speech, sensory changes, difficulties with breathing and swallowing, irregularities in heart beat, inability to sweat, and diarrhea.

i'd have to say yes...you learn how to pleasure your partner better with time and men become less selfish..... women become less inhibited with age. there are only so many times of acting shy before that passes. \nwe experiment more with age if we're open minded and communicate well with our partners.

What makes us shy: \nLack of self confidence \nAfraid that others will be mock at us if we make mistakes ( in other words, pride) \nA SHY PERSON: \nSelf image as a person who isn't good at (the subject of each title) \nRerunning (looping) past failed actions in your mind \nNot feeling responsible for your failed actions/decision/results... blaming (victim mentality) \nLack of confidence (causes procrastination, blocks efforts completely) \nPositive neuro-associations to unsupportive people, places, actions (creates reluctance to put in effort to get result) \nNegative neuro-associations to supportive people, places, actions (also creates reluctance to put in effort to get results) \nFear/anxiety about failure and/or success (makes correct decisions/actions difficult or impossible) \nBrain represents goal related tasks/decisions as larger, scarier and more difficult than they truly are. This adds to fear and paralysis, further making goal achieving activities difficult/impossible. \nBrain represents mistakes/setbacks/delays as more damaging than they actually are. Creates frustration, fear, anger, anxiety. \nVisualizing/imagining future poor/failed actions and poor/failed results (creating a well rehearsed script to follow). \nFeelings of stress/fatigue/breakdown in body due to the patterns above \nSHYNESS LEADS TO FAILURE \nThese are unconscious mental programs that run without you even being aware of it.  \n\nThey are the source of most depression, frustration, anger, jealousy, fear, laziness, boredom, impatience, dishonesty and pessimism.\n\nThink about it... when you are afraid, when you are procrastinating, when you load on the sour cream, when you decide to watch TV instead of practicing or studying the information that could make you rich/healthy/happy/productive, when you throw the interception or miss the shot, you're not aware of these brain functions.  \n\nNo.  \n\nYou just know (believe) that something seemed scary... \n\nYou didn't want to do it now... \n\nJust a little won't hurt... \n\nYou may believe that you wouldn't get to play/get an 'A' whether you practice/study or not... now you are going to lose.  \n\nIt's the way you "think about things" (the way your brain represents them to you) that controls your moods/states.  \n\nAnd your mood/state controls every single one of your actions and decisions from the time you wake up till the moment you fall asleep...  \n\nEvery single one of them.\n\nHOW TO OVERCOME SHYNESS \nDo be afraid to be mocked at by others ( but please do not go to the point of shameless! ) \nPractise talking to large groups of people \nHave self-confidence \nWalk not with your head down, but with your head UP. \nBest Wishes and Good Luck :-)

Interesting question. Possibly related to our ancestors time in the trees. A strong grip would be essential for survival and this involuntary reflex is a relic from that time.

People who are shy are usually shy for a reason. You know that rejection is by far the most likely outcome if you were to ask women out. \n\nShyness is nature's way of stopping a guy from making stupid mistakes like the one you did in the club.\n\nYou'll most likely be alone either way, so you need to decide is it worth the prospect of many many rejections on the slim chance that somewhere along the line there is a woman desperate enough to not only have any interest in the first place but to want any sort of a relationship?

not all men are weak, they are just unsure how to say what they feel, men's emotions don't mature for many years beyond what their bodies do.

Arrogant persons would choose not to speak to others based on an assessment of order placement in the structure of their world.\n\nA Shy or quiet person doses not actively seek to speak to others based on a perception that the others have no interest in them.\n\nQuiet people often get labeled Arrogant because others always suspect the worst in everyone.\n\nThe best way to tell the difference is to start with Hello and gauge the reaction.

Some guys are afraid to open up and as they are afraid of being hurt, teased, ridiculed, etc. Trust me when I say that it can be anything from something as petty as shyness stopping them to something as serious as major mental problems. It all depends on the guy. No matter how close you are to a guy, it takes a wee bit o' time before he can really begin to trust enough to open up and then there are guys like me....who open up and are honest from the word 'go'. I recommend a book titled: Men are from Mars, Women are From Venus. It is both a good read as well as offers great insight into both the male and female aspects of a relationship.

Overcoming Shyness and Social Phobia\nShyness, (sometimes inaccurately called 'social phobia'), affects most people at some time in their life. Young people in particular find overcoming shyness difficult as they improve their social skills. And for some, shyness seems to persist into adult life, almost as if it has become a 'habit'.\n\nShyness has its roots in self consciousness and usually dissipates as people mature and become more experienced. However, for some it can 'stick', and then action is required.\n\nAlthough most people think in terms of 'overcoming shyness', it is more likely that you will become comfortable in social situations by learning the strategies of self confidence along with social skills. Then, shyness is no longer the issue, as social nerves will melt away as a new 'habit' takes their place.\n\nShyness versus Social Phobia\n\nIt is my personal opinion that social phobia is too often diagnosed where people are simply experiencing natural shyness. It is perfectly natural to be a little timid in a situation where you don't yet know the 'rules', or what to do. In fact, most people experience some degree of nerves when, say going to meet friends, especially if it is somewhere they haven't been before, or someone new will be there.\n\nWe have to be very careful not to assume that there is something wrong with this. Social nerves are natural, as long as they don't get out of hand. Focusing on them and making them into a 'big thing' will only make matters worse.\n\nWhen learning about social situations, young people need the chance to find their own way, without being labeled with 'social phobia'. This is not to say that social phobia does not exist; I know it does because I have worked with people suffering from it. However, in the vast majority of cases, the solution is social skills training, and perhaps relaxation and rehearsal, rather than drugs.\n\nIf a person can maintain a degree of calmness in a situation, then they are much more likely to be able to learn about how the situation works. However, if they are highly anxious and internally focused, both their emotional state and focus of attention will make it more difficult to pick up on subtle social cues.\n\nThe other key point about overcoming shyness is that most of socialising is an unconscious process. That doesn't mean you should be asleep when you're doing it (tell that to people I speak to at parties ;-), it simply means that much of human communication is non-verbal. That is, 'it's not what you say, it's the way that you say it'.\n\nIf you become highly anxious, this will tend to focus your conscious mind on your immediate environment, getting in the way of those unconscious processes.\nTips For Overcoming Shyness\nCheck out the tips in the article on self consciousness, particularly the ones to do with where you focus your attention.\n\n    * Practise becoming fascinated by other people. Ask them about themselves, and concentrate when they answer you. Remember what they tell you about themselves so you can talk about it later, or on another occasion.\n\n\n    * Great socialisers make other people feel comfortable and interesting. How do they do that? By being really, genuinely interested in other people. If you are talking to someone and you feel boring or inferior, ask why that is. Is it really all your fault?\n\n\n    * Practise using fewer 'personal pronouns' when you talk about things. Sentences beginning with 'I' are not only a turn-off for the listener, they also keep the focus of attention on you, which increases shyness. (Note: Of course, part of friendship is giving away things about yourself, but only when you feel it is appropriate to do so.)\n\n\n    * Remember that the way to overcome shyness is to focus elsewhere. Like on imagining what it will be like to really enjoy the social event, on how it will feel to be fu

I think so, but i tend to like men who are shy over an agressive man. I think shy is sexy.

Being shy is only a trait which will ware off in time.\n\nShyness is not a turnoff and at times it's better to have a shy girl than a robustly outgoing girl which can at times become a turnoff.\n\n\nSo chill, you're doing ok.\n\nTake care and have a great day.

The origin of the word menopause\nThe Greek translation is men = month and pausein = to stop. \n\nI'm sure that's more than you really wanted to know but I had fun looking it up.
