I think a lot of people just fear putting themselves out there. They don’t want to be hurt they don’t want to waste their time or do anything unnecessary.
I think I just want someone to mesh into my life and I Theirs. Not forced, and feels natural.
It's just a matter of doing it. Fear will never be completely absent but I think the best way to deal with it iss to suck it up and do it- for dating or anything else you find anxiety provoking. Maybe trying to approach it as role play. I knew an actor who was pretty effeminate but he was capable of scaring the shit out of guys tweice his size because he could act like a tough guy. Good luck. I had to re-invent myself when I was a teenager and my world completely changed
Talk to everyone you are comfortable no matter where, check out lines. Challenge yourself. Learn, observe others, read books and watch videos and date until you are comfortable.
no alcohol or drugs... you want to feel the fear and emotions.
good luck!

When dating it is good to remember that the person across from you is also scared of
Vulnerability, Rejection, Farting out loud, Right person/Wrong person, Changing/I'm not
changing, "look, don't you be a loser too", "I hope she can tell Time.. tick tick.. tick/ I hope
he knows it's Time to Hustle and so on...
Best way is to date others. Since you are fearful, make the date simple, in a public place, where you feel safe.
Let someone know where you are going, how long you intend to be gone, and call them if that changes. Bring a defense spray or whatever else you are legally allowed to carry. Confidence in hand can work wonders on nerves. Public well lit places during the day are best for first time meetings.
I think The Dating is so easy. Its choosing to become official and commit where fear sets in for most
I mean thinking from my perspective, If a women is too playful with me, I suspect something is up. Its not even about dating, its common sense. I say this, but I get friendly easily and scare people away.
u put on your best pair of Nikes... and Just Do It
Stay completely numb. Date but don't get emotionally invested in anyone. If you were a guy that would be my best advice to you. But since you're a woman and I know your gender thrives on that s*** I'm not sure how well that'd work.
I know where you are coming from it can be scary lol
But don't be scared of love and don't be negative... just be aware they can have bad intentions so take it easy don't rush in..
People who are hurt, they afraid, otherwise no such problem
I think what you describe is smart not afraid! :)
Take it slowly, pick and choose men carefully.
You just got to go for it and see the reaction from the other person….
You never know until you do
I know that is lt is always very hard for me to
What is patience?
