i am still puzzled as to how a shy, timid, sensitive, unconfident person could be called these things.

My best guess is that it's a competitive tactic designed to increase your compliance with their wishes. Either that or they've become angry with you and have been reduced to spurious name-calling. Or both.

I too could fairly be called shy, timid, sensitive and unconfident, yet I sometimes anger some people. Haven't been called a narcissist yet, not as such anyway.
