Sometimes. If I intend to hit on them, yes. If they are friends, there's no reason for me to be shy at all.

Yes but I adapt and move on most of the time. Its a good skill to develop and very essential at the work place.

I do, there is this guy I like from a club and we spoke once. I was too shy to approach him after that and I think he moved away. Saw him a year later and I got this nervous smile and had to leave that bar area.

Yes I do! Awkward, shy... I say stupid things, I just make a complete fool of myself. Then I think, "They must think I'm a total moron!"
Not just in person, but even talking with someone I like online
I understand. I say things that pass, but later I think I could have done it better. Said something better, been cooler, or went about it in a different way. Live learn.
I always have...

In general, yes.

Thinking about it, I'm generally akward and shy in almost any situation, but I get even worse when there's some guy close I find attractive, or as stated above I think could be interested about me. If I'm walking close to a cute guy I even walk weird.

I think everyone does especially if they're stunning.
Don't worry, usually awkwardness or shyness is a turn on

Not at all. I'm a bit awkward/shy towards people in generally, but their attractiveness doesn't change that level any. I've even approached and chatted with actors and porn stars without any trouble at all, some of which I thought were quite attractive.

My behavior around people I find attractive can vary. Sometimes I'm super shy and intimidated but other times I will try to strike up a conversation with them if I can think of something that isn't completely stupid to say.

It depends on the context and where you are. Here in NYC if you see someone hot on a rush hour subway it's probably not a good idea to go up to them but in a social setting everyone is in a different mindset (meeting other guys/ connecting with potential dates or hookups).
I used to get really shy and would never think of going up to other guys who were out of my "league" until I realized a lot of people get shy, freeze up or become awkward or shy around those they're attracted to. Plus a lot of guys are somewhat intimated by taller guys; straight or gay. You're expected to be outgoing and extroverted if you're above a certain height so I've learned to be assertive in social situations.
I can go up to pretty much anyone now whether they're hot or not. I surprised myself at a gaybar but going up to this really hot but kind of shy guy who was in the Navy once (having 1 drink helped also) If they aren't attracted to you and can't turn you down like a normal mature adult then consider it a bullet dodged. Go on to the next person.
BTW, a lot of attractive guys complain that no one goes up to them.
