Prone to blushing, say

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shy

'prone to blushing say' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for shy that I've seen before include "Recoil" , "guarded" , "Bashful or timid" , "'Lacking self-confidence, timid (3)'" , "Fling or throw" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
