So I don't know if he means he wants me to go talk to him or what because I'm a really shy person also. One day he'll give me attention and try to give long eye contact, then another day he'll avoid all eye contact, so I'm not sure what to do?

Perhaps he is inexperienced sexually ( sorry if that sounds too personal ) , and is intimidated that you may be more experienced than him that way. Do you mind me asking how experienced you are that way ?. I say this because i have liked older guys, some who weren't much older, and some who were much older, and i was intimidated by that because i know that i haven't had much sexual experience, and i knew that they would have. To be hoenst, that's the only reason i can think of as to why someone could be intimidated by an age gap. Or perhaps he thinks that you won't have much in common with your interests, music, films, hobbies, e.t.c. Or perhaps, as you said, he's just very shy and is like that with all women, not just with you.
I would suggest that you ask him out if you feel confident enough, or before you do that, you could try to get to know him a bit first and ask him what his interests are, and maybe you could ask him if he does feel intimidated, and if so , why is he feeling like that. Or you could ask him all that when you've dated for a while. And you could try to reassure him that there is nothing to worry about.
I hope i've helped in some way, and i wish you luck !.
