I can relate to what you're feeling. I have this tall, gorgeous friend. Whenever I'm in the same room as her I, too, am the potato. I often joke that she is the Uma Thurman to my Janeane Garofalo. But what really makes her beautiful is her personality. She's creative, nurturing, smart and funny. Just one of the coolest people you could ever be around. And I would really feel like a potato if I missed out on her just because I felt a little humbled.
I would really try to reach out to your online friend. She wants to meet you for a reason. You've already won her over just by being you. It sounds like your self-esteem is tripping you up real bad here. Just because you don't feel like a bombshell doesn't mean you're not beautiful. Looks are so subjective. If you ever were to meet somebody who spent the entire night thinking you're not up to par then that makes them the only ugly person in the room. And they're not worth your time or energy.
