Is it normal for my best friend to act like this?

I've got this best friend. I introduced him to my Filipina twin cousin FIVE years ago when we were twelve. See, he's got this major social anxiety--he's a great guy, awesome and smart, if not a bit nerdy, and he and my cousin have grown wonderfully close.
Thing is: He obviously wants her, but the girl's an emotionless one! Like, NO feelings at all!
I just don't see what's wrong with him. I seriously don't. Is it normal for him not to ask her out when it's SO obvious?

    ...what? You mean the girl has no emotions towards him? Can you explain this sentence?

    I've tried. Believe me. I've been doing that for five years ever since his crush became apparent.

    Fear of rejection. It's common.
