Why would a guy be slow to approach a girl?

What is he thinking

[VV3ZZY123]

Negative Self Talk.
"Girls Dont Like you"
"All girls hate you"
"She only dates Guys with a lot of experience, and u have none"
"She can tell your struggling and she hates you"
This is my problem lol

What if he was popular what do you think

[VV3ZZY123]

It's easier to be popular when you dont really care what they think. But when you crush on someone it's like you dont want to screw up. So you put a lot of pressure on yourself. Thinking things like "I gotta be cool, I dont want to bother her, I dont want her to think..." so it makes it almost impossible to have simple conversation with them.

There's such a multitude of dumb shit that gets in our heads. Being the approacher all the time is exhausting trying to keep natural and unique. For me my nerves are up and down constantly in public so I'm not doing anything until I feel like I can be real and natural for the both of us.

Honestly, for me, I just don't want to lower myself to that level. I don't want to be seen as desperate. They should be coming to me, not the other way around.

That she's out of his league.

What if he was popular tho

[Asker]

And good with the ladies?

Perhaps he thinks he would likely scare her off.

[Asker]

In what way? What is he thinking,

[82lynx]

Not sure, but I worry that I would be seen as a creeper. Also, I have no past successes.

[Asker]

What if he was popular what do you think

[82lynx]

No idea.

For the same reason a girl would be slow to approach a guy

Because he's working out if it's worth the end of his life

Shyness?

Even if they are popular and good with the ladies,
