I have problems even looking into my best friend's eyes!! I think it's because when you look someone in the eye, they know you're thinking about them, want to talk (or more..), and it reveals your feelings and emotions. Build a friendship with this guy. When I'm with my guy friends, sometimes I get so nervous that my knee shakes up and down (annoying nervous habit that I can't break), and I basically stare at the floor the whole time. It smurfs when that happens. Even so, normally, because I've built friendships with these guys, I can talk to them like they're normal people. (even though we all know that guys are everything but normal! lol) All I can say is that it's normal for you to be shy around guys, in fact, it's good! If you're shy around guys, then the guy that you go out with (eventually) wont be afraid that you'll run off with another guy, and it'll make your relationships better. But, being shy isn't fun. It's ok to open up!! Try to get some friends of yours and his to hang out somewhere, even if it's only for a few minutes, where you can talk in a group setting, and maybe find something in common with him so that you have a conversation starter. Try and get his AIM screen name and/or e-mail address. It's easier to get to know someone over the internet, where your face and emotions don't show. Just try and be friends with the guy you like, there's nothing wrong with that. Don't believe the world when they say that a guy and a girl can't be JUST friends. They can be JUST friends, I have several JUST guy friends. Start off as JUST friends, that way you'll know whether you want to go out with him or not. Don't let your emotions run wild and rule your thoughts, try and be nice and friendly. (This is hard for me, not because I'm mean, but because I'm shy. I don't like being the first to say "Hi", but I do it anyway, because I want to talk to someone) Remember to smile alot!! Smiles make you seem much more friendly and happy to be alive!! I can't really help you any more than this I don't think. I'm sorry. Take it to God. Tell Him about it. Tell God about the guy that you like, and that you'd like to be able to talk with him more freely. (God already knows, but He wants to hear it from you!) I've included a poem at the bottom of this answer, because I like it alot. It really sortof describes how I am becoming. I'm a "Nothing Girl" if that pleases you, but, more specifically, I'm not caring that people think I'm weird, or that I'm ugly or mean, because I know that God has made me the way He wants me to be. God bless!!
"Nothing Girl"
Maybe I wear baggies
And white socks with flip-flops,
Maybe I don't like listening to rave
And I'm not on the social mountaintops,
Maybe I don't care about the things
That make your worlds twirl,
Maybe you look at me and think:
Gee, what a nothing girl.
Maybe I like giving smiles
Which seems to be a sin today,
And maybe I allow my imagination
To sometimes run away,
Maybe you don't understand this
And that's why you cannot see,
If this make me a nothing girl,
Hey, that's ok with me!
The world makes you believe
Your personality mustn't be detected,
Your face must be picture perfect
And wear cloths just the best, to be accepted.
Maybe I look at you
And feel sorry that you're blind,
Robots you have became,
Yourself you'll never find.
God made you, as well as me,
This means I am something,
The world is a liar
And if I must be a nothing
For you to see it,
Then so be it!

I didn't write this, I got it out of a friends buddy profile, so yeah. They get the credit, not me!! But think about it. It doesn't seem to apply, but it really does. Don't be afraid to live up to what God wants you to be!!!
