One needs to Make and effort and start by seeking help.
But saying one is not suited for a relationship because he might be socially awkward is unsupportive
We don't know if women like him
Or not. He never ask anyone out ever! And never attempted to date so how do you know what women think? OMG

I'd like some actual verifiable evidence of the "plenty of anxious and awkward people" who "eventually find love." Because in my experience it just doesn't happen. Do you even understand what Social Anxiety Disorder is? I was speaking from experience; I've had to deal with social anxiety my whole life. I've racked up more rejections than I can count. I have indeed made the effort and sought help -- and, like the OP, none of it has made me less socially awkward.
I think that giving someone the cold hard truth might be more helpful than just feeding them pretty lies. All my life I've heard people telling me that I "just haven't found the right girl yet" and "there's someone for everyone." And I'm sick of people lying to me to be kind. If treatment works for you and lessens your social awkwardness, great. But if not, you need to be prepared for the outcome.
I understand that you are trying to be kind and supportive. But sometimes that does more harm than good. I was just providing Shadix with a realistic look at the situation.
