not using this as an excuse... but since I was born & raised in an east Asian culture where the guys aren't assertive, it makes things a little harder when the girl I'm pursuing is Americanized

By what age do you think a guy should have gotten over this fear?
I feel like I'm in high school again... I'm 20 years old... not a teenager anymore. I'm ashamed of myself

Im 34 and still have trouble when Im not introduced...
I find it VERY akward to just walk up to someone...

now once Im introduced then I can talk all night long.

Yup. That's how it worked with me, anyway. One day I concluded it just wasn't worth the effort and stopped trying. Not 2 weeks later the girl that prompted me to think that (so out of my league) was my gf.

Hmmm, interesting choice of words...


You need someone to show you the way to the door of the closet.
