Jay, I have always liked shy guys. The hard part, of course, is connecting with them! You can't be super shy and you must make eye contact but I think there are a lot of women out there looking for a nice introverted guy. That macho stuff gets old pretty fast anyway. These days a lot of women DO make the first move but they will sometimes wait of a sign that you might be receptive. I'm sure you know all the ways...the aforementioned eye contact, the sweet smile (no leering), a comment....anything to open up the possibility of contact. Are you around potential women friends very often or do you hide at home or at a male-centered activity? If the latter is true, get out there! And I don't mean bars necessarily; I'm sure you can think of lots of places nice women congregate. If you bring your sweet shy self there and pass out some charming smiles, I think you may find great success.
I'm sure some of the younger women here have some insights they could share. It's been a long time since I was out there and maybe I have it all wrong.....I hope not!
Good luck
