A person(mainly aimed at guys)who has trouble communicating with new people, the opposite sex, outgoing people, and those they find attractive. Can be an attractive trait of a female yet an appalling trait of a male. Often judged as a loser, weirdo, no-life, boring, loner, etc. and when a person gets to know a shy person they can actually be quite cool, interesting, helpful, and understanding. Also, usually smarter and cooler than the loud ass guys running around trying to act "cool".
Girl #1: Why don't you ask the shy kid out?
Girl #2: Heck no! He seems like a loser and boring, probably just sits at home.
Girl #1: You kidding? That shy kids into camping, cars, paintball, sports, and likes chillin in the yard or in the car at night under the stars.
Girl #2: Oh really? I could talk to him...

Girl 1: Did you see that guy. He was totally looking at you and blushing.
Girl 2: Oh, he's shy? How cute.

A word attributed to few Americans, those of which who are considered weird, odd, or different, and are often ridiculed for it, etc. (if you're a guy), or those of which who are considered funny, hot, cute, smart, beautiful, etc. (if you're a girl), or very rarely, vice versa. Most people, mainly girls make fun of shy guys and praise shy girls, which, IMO, is the stupidest fucking shit I've ever seen.
It's said that shyness is the single biggest turn-off for girls. If you're unfortunate enough to be a guy who happens to be shy, well... I can't help but feel sorry for ya. It's funny how judgmental and mean some people can be, and how fucking pathetic it is that you're automatically labeled as shy even if you aren't really shy at all. For all we know, that guy could just be tired or busy, or maybe he just doesn't give a shit, or maybe it's just that guy refuses to speak with any of the obnoxious assholes who can't keep their mouths shut for five fucking seconds, or, just maybe, that guy wants to be different from all the other fucking low-life, loud-mouthed, obnoxious bastards who just can't keep their fucking dicks in their pants and whose single fucking goal in life is to fuck every single girl they see.
To put it rather simply, if you don't talk much, don't have many friends, walk alone everywhere, study a lot, don't get outside of the house that often, are made fun of a lot, are "different" from most guys, are smart, etc., you're shy.

Girl 1: "Look at that guy right there. He doesn't say much. He just sits there and reads."
Girl 2: "Oh, him? He's just shy."
Girl 1: "Well, I think he's weird."
Girl 2: "Actually, he's very friendly once you get to know him. He's smart and funny, and very helpful, too. You should go talk to him."
Girl 1: "Huh, maybe I will."
*I am NOT gonna talk to him.*

Shy oftenly gets mixed up with being introverted, but they two different things. Being shy is more like social anxiety or the fear of social interactions. Some people that are shy usually are seen as weird because everyone is expected to be an extrovert. In school situations the shy person would never have the courage to go and ask their crush out they would rather just stare from a distance due to their social anxiety. What people don’t know is that shy people have a lot of personality but just take a while getting comfortable around new people.
