You know, I'd been thinking recently, maybe some of Garrus's "tension" was of the sexual/relationship sort toward Shepard (I do believe her dialogue begins, "You seem tense."). He does kind of seem to start flirting from the moment you recruit him as Femshep. Femshep might have just been saying, in her very forward flirt, "Oh hey, Garrus, I noticed you suddenly seem to be attracted to me. Wanna do something about that?" Meanwhile, Garrus himself probably didn't even realize he was becoming a little more attracted to Shepard than just as a friend... maybe he told himself that a little flirting was harmless?
Your theory makes more sense than mine, though, because it's a very turian view on things. Don't want to interrupt the crew, don't want to mess with the mission, gotta be relaxed enough to focus on the mission... Yep. Very turian.
I could believe that. Why talk about his sexual encounter with that other Turian in front of Shepard? It sounds to me like he could have been hinting at something to Shepard. However he doesn't say it all. Like I said before maybe he thought that Shepard would think it would be a horrible idea or his Turian instinct told him that doing that could mess up the mission. Another hint maybe the thing about women liking scars. Maybe he just said Krogan women so nobody would suspect anything.
See, the thing about telling Shepard about his sexual encounter... That's one of the reasons, and one thing I was rather
over when I first played out the romance. Now, a guy might talk about things like that to another guy and it's more about being buddies and not flirty at all, and, hey, Garrus is a turian, Shepard's a human, so maybe he sees her as gender-neutral or something. But, generally? Guys don't tell girls about their sexploits, not unless they see the girl as another guy, or they want to have sex with the girl. Like I said, it's entirely possible Garrus doesn't realize why he's saying the things he is. Maybe it's a sort of subconscious attraction. Before I'd read much of the romance and thought about it more, the first thing I thought was: Whoah. Garrus was dropping some major hints there, wasn't he?And as for women liking scars, apparently Male Shep gets a different line. So yes, I'd say it's a flirt. Though I kind of wish you could counter him with a line like, "It isn't your scar I like."
In all honesty, though, I don't think Garrus would've dismissed a possible romantic relationship just because it was presented to him differently. Considering how eager he was to take Shepard up on her offer, I think if she'd just made it very clear she liked him as more than a friend in the first place (in some other way besides outright propositioning him), he'd have jumped on that opportunity too. He knows there's a risk for ruining their friendship, yes... but clearly, if Shepard's willing to take the risk, so is he. That's not even the biggest risk they're taking--they could, in fact, kill one another. Allergic reactions and all that.

I definitely think Dude!Shep needs to be more forward when pursuing his romantic interests. Throw your testosterone around more, Dude!Shep. Make women faint dead away at your unparalleled masculinity! Quick, before
