Hi!
Well, in my opinion, both concepts are very different. For instance, I think that I am not timid, but phobic. I developed a certain fear about women, as if they were very superior, and I always feel in a very low level compared to any woman. And when I am among women my behavior is very different then when I am with guys. I am a little bit flirty, and I enjoy guys company, but I can´t enjoy a girlfriend company, I feel tense, afraid and some times they think that I´m lesbian which is not true, sorry if they feel disappointed, hahaha.
I had a girlfriend who recently had to move to another city, but before she left, she told me that it had been a challenge to be my friend, and that she was happy to be my friend, and that made me feel very good about myself. Anyway, I am not timid, but phobic, this is, I feel very afraid only when I´m under certain circunstances, not always (well, almost always, hahaha).
