Why do people assume I’m gay just because I’m shy and picky with women?

I’ve always have struggled to talk to women, I grew up really shy and consider myself a late bloomer, but I really don’t get why everyone thinks that I’m gay. It’s actually making it hard for me to date women.

I still get really nervous when talking to women, and often overthink conversations and kill my own chances. But I’m also really picky about what my type of women I like. If I’m not in to the girl, I honestly won’t put much effort into a conversation or at least I won’t go past a normal friendly convo with them.

There’s been times where I might’ve danced with a girl or was talking to one but wasn’t interested in them and when I tell my friends that I didn’t get her number they all flip out, and then keep pestering me to go get her number, even though I don’t want it. Because of this there’s been times where I’ve tried to have sex with a girl I’m not at all interested in, and as you can imagine it never goes well. Because I just can’t get turned on if it’s not a girl I like and 2 because I feel like I’m only doing this for my friends. It just doesn’t work for me. I get it it’s been a few years since I last had sex but does that make me gay? Just because I don’t want to have sex with the girls that y'all want but find ones that o actually like? I feel like everytime I talk to a girl, I’m being watched by everyone and it just makes it even harder to actually make any moves cause I feel like I’m being watched and judged. It makes it harder to relax and be myself around women so I can actually date and have sex. Does this make sense?
