Welcome to PC. I read your story. Sometimes things are slow around here but this section is very active. For some reason weekends are slower and I don't know why.

I am a lot like you. Especially when I was in high school. The girl friends I had came on to me so I didn't have to make that terrifying first move. Lucky. I am by nature very shy and introverted and only want to discuss intellectual things. I am 50 now and over the years have learned how to be more outgoing and can deal with groups and stuff. Not when I am depressed or having anxiety but in general. I think with age we become less self conscience and just don't care what people think.

One time I watched this guy walk straight up to a girl he never met and ask for her number and she gave it to him. I thought what the hell it is that simple, you just have to do it and not think about it. I dunno why but that made something snap and I figured I could do that too. I did it and started dating and had some good relationships.

Are you still in contact with her? She may very likely be sitting at home wondering why you haven't asked her out and maybe just as shy as you. Don't think about it just walk up and do it.
