This is the sort of reason I never advise my male friends to try meeting women at parties or crowded social events.
When someone is surrounded by strangers (say, for instance, at a convention), their guard is up and she may become needlessly stressed about innocent things, and may overreact especially if she is shy. I doubt she would have acted similarly had she been a classmate or other acquaintance.
