What does it mean?

What does it mean when a guy can't look you in the eye for very long? I have this male acquaintance of mine that I know and sometimes hang out with, but anytime we hang out together in a group, I notice that sometimes it seems like he's deliberately trying NOT to look at me!! Even if I'm talking in the group, he'll be looking elsewhere sometimes. I'm like: "Okay..what's up with that?"
Yet, this same guy is quite friendly with all the ladies, and he can seemingly talk with them and joke with them easily. He gives everyone else easy eye-contact, but with me, he's very cautious. I don't understand why. I never did anything to him. At least...I don't think so.
I used to think he was kind of cute and sort of had a crush on him, but since he acts so "weird" around me sometimes, I've decided to just forget about him.
What is up with this guy? Guys do you ever deliberately try to avoid eye-contact with some girls?? And if so what are the common reasons why a guy would try hard to avoid eye-contact with a girl?

I'm a single guy and when I try to avoid eye contact it is because I like that girl, but when I think it cannot lead to anything when she has a boyfriend already or if I feel she doesn't reciproque my feelings I try to avoid eye contact. If I feel attracted to a girl I think I cannot have feelings for anymore I also try to avoid eye contact because I don't want to stare to awkwardly long at her or I do that because I am trying to get rid of my feelings for that girl and am scared that the feelings for that girl returns when I make eye contact. I could also do that if I don't want other people or her to know I like her.

If you don’t mind can I tell you how I met him so you have a better understanding of my situation?

Yeah, as a guy if a girl is like a normal friend usually being friendly and eye contact is natural (like with guy friends ig) but if she's pretty or you just like them in general, I personally feel quite nervous to look them in the eye much. However, I also don't look at people I don't like in general, as in I won't even look in their direction while talking to them. So honestly it just depends how friendly you are to the guy idk

As a male myself, perhaps he doesn't feel as confident around you because he might be feeling inadequate around you like he doesn't deserve you. Tbh I am not a very reliable source- never been in any relationships myself (bc I go to an all boys schl) but that might be it ik some of my mates go on ab that sometimes.
I doubt he's doing anything weird but u never know. Don't be too heavy handed I'm sure everything is OK

He never texts me first but whenever I text him. He replies really fast. He can talk and be comfortable with everyone except me. He can barely look me in the eyes. I always thought he hates me, why does he treat me so different from others. I even went further to ask him do I make you nervous, or why do you always look at me. He responded back really fast denying my accusation of him, and told me to forget about it. Because obviously he doesn’t text me first, I overthink a little bit whether he would get annoyed if I do it, he said not at all.
