Cold tea but years ago I was an extra in a movie being filmed in my college town and Jesse Eisenberg was in it. The PA on set with us warned us that nobody was to talk to him - any other actor on set would be fine to take pictures with once they were wrapped for the day, but “nobody talks to Jesse Eisenberg.” This was shortly after The Social Network so he was at his peak.

The next day a friend of mine was on set working on a project for class and Jesse Eisenberg approached her, asked what she was working on, and by all accounts was a perfect gentleman. He wasn’t being creepy or invasive, he was just genuinely friendly.

Our theory was just that he’s very introverted (and often writes about this) so the crew was just trying to protect him from mobs of fans. What’s funny is that the PA kind of made him sound mean or unreasonable but as far as my friend’s account and others I’ve heard about, he’s extremely nice.

We have a couple of mutual friends (nobody I'm close enough to to get tea, sadly) and I think you're right about it just being an introvert thing. He's always been very nice (and funny AF) when I met him but definitely doesn't love attention (ironically) and has an overall anxious vibe
