    I saw this on Cracked, and there IS a phrase in the English language that means this. It's called "twice shy".

    But you never had any to begin with.
    Twice shy definitely doesn't seem to be the term to use for that context.

    "Two people looking at each other each hoping the other will do what both desire but neither is willing to do."

    I could definately see a use for it, but I don't think I'll ever be able to pronounce it.

    It's actually not that difficult to pronounce.

    But I'm used to seeing wierd words 'cause I'm always looking up languages. Wait till you see Salishan clustering...
