There is a difference between being Introverted and Shy. And individual is shy if s/he is timid or nervous around other people, while an introvert is someone who draws her/his energy by being alone. Shyness comes from fear- you want to interact but are scared to do so. Introverts on the other hand prefer solitary to social interactions. So, if someone is an introvert, it doesnt necessarily mean that they are scared of talking to people- in fact, a number of them are great at tasks such as public speaking or leadership. Therefore, the next time I say, I dont like taking calls or meeting people, its not because I hate you or I am shy, its because my energies are drained in crowds or when I am in a group. I do like meeting and knowing new people, but I love solitude (and no, I havent had any bad experiences in my interactions so far- so dont focus on the unconscious) Thanks!
