Friends

I have one friend for 20 years and we are friends only because she approached me. It was always like this. I not only don't know how to approach and start a small talk, but also don't think about approaches anyone, I'm just in my inner world.

Yes, it's frustrating when a girl seems to like you, but you're not sure how to handle it and the opportunity slips away.

I have to say, in my case, what really put me off sexual relationships was when I suddenly found out how babies are made. As a kid, I naïvely thought that when a couple got married, it just happened naturally. But one day on the playground, a kid in my class blurted out the truth in a very crude way, which I found shocking at the time and, I swear, has affected me to this day. My parents never told me anything, and I think this has created a stigma around human relationships that may have caused my shyness around women.
