Why would a guy pretend to be clumsy/shy?

[Anonymous]

This guy always gives me strong eye contact, shows up in random places, and when I pass him on the street, he buries his face in his phone, but I always catch him looking

This is how I acted around my crush. Things were very weird between us for various reasons at different times. The more I liked her, the more chaotic my behavior became. I never did it intentionally. I acted busy to feel more secure.

Well for me…. I always look, smile and make eye contact regardless whether I like the girl or not. It’s what some guys do.

That would be an odd thing for somebody to do. It would be a considerable turn-off more than anything.

Why do you assume he is pretending anything? So weird...
