Okay so there's this girl i like and my friend introduced me to her. When I was standing in front of her i felt really really nervous. She wanted to give a hug but I, being so nervous, took my hand out to shake hands. She gave me the weirdest look ever. Then she i opened my arms to hug her and she took her hand out. Then she opened her arms again and I took my hand out again. We shook hand and she told me, "You're an awkward child", I just stared at her and smile. This is a huge problem with me and girls i don't know.I really need help on this problem. Any advise on this?

You need to be bold enough and have some attitudes in yourself as if you are not nervous at all when you might be after all. When a girl is in front of you then act as if this is casual and whatever happens you stay natural and show them that you got some personality enough to be what you are. Tell yourself that you are a guy with lots of guts when you speak to them. Do not feel shy as they will find it a bit awkward. So be bold and fearless as if you have nothing to lose even if they are next to you.

If you already found a way around to be successful without approaching, sucking up to people ,otherwise you gotta do your best socially . actually am I impressed with your culture focusing on the education of personality and leadership . Hope you appreciate that .

for me also the same problem exists. I am trying to rule out whether I'm shy or going introvert.
