I would absolutely love to go on a date with someone, if they asked me but as of now I just cannot do it. I don't get it.

Any suggestions?

Let us try this mental exercise.
Picture yourself on a date. Let us just imagine a typical date at a restaurant, without bells and whistles.
What is terrifying if you picture yourself sitting across the table from your date?
Do you feel afraid of not being liked?..
...or, of being liked too much, too soon, too intensely for you to even feel safe?
... or what?
what exactly is so terrifying?
I bet if you can picture this and pinpoint/name what is so terrifying, it might even stop being AS terrifying as it is now, unnamed and completely catastrophic.
