I’m a 19 year old male whose never had a girlfriend, barley had friends. I’m awkward with girls but also certain people like friends I’m not comfortable with. When a girl would talk to me i would shut down and push her away even now when a girl looks at me or says hi i kinda just look away not saying anything yes because I’m scared but i have the courage to say hi back but there’s like something like a mental block so i just can’t do it. It’s like if you had to break your own arm to survive you just can’t do it even if you had the courage to. Certain people like my dentist or doctor i have pretty much no trouble socializing but with friends, people with outgoing personalities, and girls i just can’t talk. I’m just wondering what this is social anxiety? Shyness? Social inhibition? Self consciousness, avoidant personality disorder, low confidence/ self esteem, social awkwardness, social avoidance? Only reason I don’t think it’s a confidence issue is because i can feel pretty confident only when it comes to talking I’m a mess, one time at a bar i was so anxious i wanted to hide in the bathroom, when i go to restaurants or bars i just stare at my phone and don’t really talk. Ordering food is hard too i have to work up the courage i notice I don’t ask sometimes because everyone is with me. Idk ask me questions please i need to gauge where my problem lies
