This surprised me as well when I first heard it, but it's apparently a really common problem for shy people. I tend to shy back and do my own thing, and apparently some people took that as meaning I felt like I was too good to talk to them.
Now that I've trained myself to be more arrogant, it's become much less of an issue.
Yes, way back when I was in school, people interpreted my shyness as arrogance too. I was very surprised when I learned that, as I'd always thought people were reading me like an open book.
