As a female, what am I supposed to do when a guy keeps being shy and nervous when he's around me?

I drop my shyness and anxiety around women I like when they make a concerted effort to show that she is comfortable around me and that it's okay for me to feel comfortable around her. Calm, pleasant conversation that isn't just probing him on why he's so shy.

Just pretend he's being neither of those things and talk to him normally.
I once had a similar guy behaving the same way, but he was non-stop talking (it was interesting though).
At one point his eyes got large, he looked freaked and said "I'm rambling".
I shook my head and told him, "No, It's good to hear your thought process.".
He blushed, his shoulders slumped and he relaxed; easier conversation flowed after that.

Break the ice. Laugh and tell him to relax. Tell him "I'm human, just like you" (although I personally don't believe in the "women are just like you" thing; we're very different from each other).

But yeah, just make him relax. Touch his shoulder. Hold his hand. Smile. Toss your hair gently. He's probably nervous for a good reason, implying you're pretty hot to him.

• If your interested in him you could always make the first move and introduced yourself to him at least.
• However a smiling and looking approachable helps also to some degree. If you want him to make the first move.

Smile at him and try to stand close to him. Be sure to be clean and hygienic

That would be good. The best thing would be to talk to him, and make your intentions obvious.

Make him feel safe and comfortable.
