There's no way of knowing if you like him because he's the first who paid much attention to you. You don't know him that well!
Ask yourself that question after you've gotten to know him better. He could be absolutely genuine, and he might be just the guy for you!
Your shyness will get better after you've seen him a few times -- believe me. Right now, you're feeling self-conscious cause he's "new" and neither of you knows the other very well. You don't really know what to expect. Once you know each other better, you will feel more comfortable talking to him and being with him.
Give yourself some credit -- you're a GOOD person who deserves to be happy. If your shyness is making your life miserable, why not get some counseling? A good therapist could help you with that. But in the meantime, take things slowly with this guy, and get to know him. I wish you the very best of luck!! God bless. Hugs, Lee
