(if you dont have one, get one, shy guys will be infinately more open when they are typing and dont risk sounding like an idiot). if he gives it to you good. he will be shy and probibly avoid you for most of the -whatever reason you are in the same area- you will know with out a doubt that he likes you if, just before you have to leave, he asks you for your screen name. (but if he doesn't dont be discouraged, its hard to talk to girls). next time you see him online, talk to him, you would be amazed at how quickly AIM can break the ice even with the most girl-shy individuals.
f.y.i., i know from experience that this works. i was the shy one, and thats how my girlfriend got to me :)

always,
