ok so, I am a really shy guy, and i like this girl in my study hall. I really want to get to know her better, but everytime, I will be confident and i'lll go into study hall, and I can't even pick my head up im so nervous...I really like her, and I have been told by numerous girls that I am a really sweat, dependable guy, and that I would be a great boyfriend to a lucky girl. But the problem is I am too shy to talk witht this girl....So do girls like shy guys like me??

Girls do like shy guys, but you do need to have a bit of confidence.
If you can't work yourself up to be able to ask her out then she will never get the chance to find out about you.

you remind me of a song from the 80's "He's so shy" I love that song. Well why dont you forget how you feel about her and think of a reason to start talking to her. After the first time you talk to her, it will get easier. Are you a college student? Find out if she is on myspace. If she is you can talk to her that way. I wish you the best of luck. I know it is so hard when you are shy. Both of my boys are shy. They just finally had to bite the bullet and go for it. What is the worse she can do. If she is rude, You dont need her anyway. Just go for it. Let me know how it turns out. Or be creative, buy/pick her a flower and give it to her and just say "when I saw this flower you popped in my mind" Girls love that kind of thing.

why not? some girls prefer shy and quiet type of guys because they are mysterious. it is a challenge to every woman to know better a guy who is like that.

Some girls do. but if you really like this girl you must find a way to overcome it, or else she will never get to see the good person in you and be attracted to you.

My boyfriend is really really shy, and I'm very outgoing. I eventually "hooked" him, but it took a while. We both liked each other, but both were afraid that the other didn't, and so there was a fear of rejection. I finally just sucked it all in and asked him out. It's the first time that I've ever been shy.
So, to answer your question, yes, girls like shy guys. :) But does she know that you like her?
Some advice: If you're too shy to talk to her yourself, ask one of your buddies to talk to her about it. You could also write a note. Usually I find that notes are easier than actually talking to someone to their face, especially if it's something that I feel really strongly about.
Hope that helps!

Dude, you just need to break it down into the possible actions and outcomes.
1. You act all shy and never talk to her. Thus you don't get the girl without divine intervention.
2. You ask her out to which she will reply yes, or no.
Basically, if you don't talk to her you'll get a no by default. So would you rather no chance to get the girl, or a 50% chance? You have nothing to lose.
