 Honestly? He sounds a little full of himself especially for a "shy guy". If someone came up to me and told me that he treated me with higher standards than everyone else, I'd question just how sane he was.
IMHO a person who treats you with a higher standard that everyone else around you, do NOT need to TELL you that. You'd notice ALL on your own.
What did he expect? for you to swoon?
Next time he brings up such a statement, ask him to explain it.

You say he's shy. He got up enough nerve to tell you he shows you more regard, meaning he shows you more attention and has given you some clues that he likes you. Apparently you ignore him. He thinks highly of you.
Well, do you like him? Now you have an icebreaker. Ask, him to explain what he said. Don't approach him like a lawyer about to cross-examine a witness. He's shy, just smile and ask him if he was trying to tell you something? Then be as relaxed and friendly as you can, and listen carefully to his response.

 He treats you better. I guess the best person to have asked your question to was him. How did you respond? Did you not ask why he treated you different? It does sound like he likes you. All the signs are there, do you like him?
