It seems like whenever I talk to a girl or try to be friendly I just get turned down immediately.

I try smiling and being friendly and it really gets me squat. I have terrible people skills, I always have. I have trouble with making myself approachable, and I think people are often either scared to talk to me or are not interested in talking to me at all. I really do not know how to communicate with people socially until I get to know them first, but I can’t get to know anyone if there isn’t an initiating ’spark’ or whatever. Anyways, I’m getting fed up with trying to interact with people, let alone women, I just do not understand how to be social, I like keeping to myself or to friends that I already know. I don’t know why I think everyone is judging me even though they don’t even know me, and I wish I could get over this god **** barrier that has been in my life as far as I can remember. Does anyone else feel like this? Does anyone else feel nervous and extremely claustrophobic around people that you do not know, even if its in casual passing at a store? I don’t understand myself, and I don’t know how to change, even when I try I fail.
