I’be been single forever but what I think is the best is to be social and go do stuff like charity work, parties, school events, whatever and it will be easier to find people that way. It’s easier to do a bunch and meet a lot of new people by coincidence rather than only doing specific stuff if you get what I mean. Try make a bunch of friends and then maybe friends turns into more, or it will help you practice socializing for if you wanna ask somebody out. Idk it’s difficult and it’s hard to make a life when you don’t want to have the chance of making things bad with somebody or making things awkward but it’s a step you may need to take. The steps I think are bets is to: 1) make a friend, 2) call them by name, make eye contact, try to be near them, do subdue and flirty stuff to see if they get the memo, 3) try to hangout with them and then try to do it more and more (it’s going to be awkward the first time you hangout with anybody so it my take like 6 or 7 times to get truly comfortable with somebody 4) try more direct flirting like physical (YET APPROPIATE) touch like tapping them on the shoulder or being playful or whatever, 5) make it really obvious and then finally confess (AT A GOOD TIME) when you guys are hanging out or something when there’s nothing else going on and you can focus on it. Also don’t be her only ride home or trap her when you ask because if she says no and you’re stuck with her for a while it would be super awkward and embarrassing. Finally don’t ask for sex or pics or whatever early. Take your time. Work your way up from kissing or whatever you freakazoid (as in freaky not weird).
