    Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?
    I've always been a shy girl. I don't have much of a social life because I am extremely paranoid and introverted. I do go out occasionally but not as much as other single girls. Because of this, I don't meet new people often. Needless to say, when I do, I become easily attached, especially if I feel comfortable with that person. Two years ago I met up with a guy I knew in high school but never spoke to. He asked me out but I was to afraid so I didn't answer. He asked me out one more time and again I gave no answer. He's just as introverted as I am and so I know it must've been hard for him to ask me out. We stopped hanging out for a few months and later caught up again last year. I could tell he still liked me but didn't ask me out again. We've stopped hanging out again and now I miss him like hell. What do I do? Should I wait or just give it up? I'm too much of a geek to make a first step.

    He already made the move multiple times. Do you really expect him to keep trying only to get "no answer" from you again?

    It's time for you to step it up!

    Ask him out! If you are too shy you can hint to him that you like him so maybe he will ask you out again.

    I know how it feels to be shy. And I know it's hard to speak when you're under pressure or whatever, but you've got to step up! Meet up with him, tell him you like him, and you want him to try once more, and this time he'll get an answer. And then say yes, and its done!

    It is not making the first step, he already made it twice and he feels rejected.

    So he will most likely never ever ask again, so if you were ever to get a chance you will have to say something

    Tell him, "you must think I was a nut, but when you asked me out I was so scared that I couldn't talk, so forgive me, and let me take you out".

    Your turn to forget the excuses, and find some courage.
