  1. shy person

    A shy person is an individual who tends to feel uncomfortable, nervous or anxious in social situations or when interacting with others. They often display modesty or a lack of self-confidence in expressing themselves, preferring to avoid social gatherings or engagements to avoid potential discomfort or stress. Shyness can also manifest in a reluctance to make direct eye contact, reserved body language, or hesitance in speaking. It's important to note that shyness is often situational and varies greatly from person to person.
