Belial knows what he's talking about.

Dude your on the rebound right now. You may think your ready to find someone but you have to make sure she is out of your system because if you do find another and you keep bringing up the EX not meaning too, the new one isn't gonna be happy.

Shy huh, well all it takes is a smile or a "Hello" to start a simple convo. Look her in the eye and smile. You will not burst into flames if you do. Some may not smile back, no biggie, keep doing it. Hold a door open for her, if she has only a couple of items at the supermarket let her go first. If your doing wash at the laundry mat just say Hello to the gal next to you. If your at the bookstore and you see a gal looking at a book you've read then mention how good it was. If you take the bus same thing, a simple Hello or a smile or a head nod even. If a convo is started and you get tongue tied then keep your answers short. Eventuality the convos will get easier as you learn not all women are out to get you. There will be some turn downs but thats part of the game of life. If your looking to fall for someone right away just remember that you need to become friends first before soul mates. Your young yet, there is plenty of time. I'm 40 and found mine 2 years ago. The rest before him were practice. I'm not saying you'll take that long to find yours, but you have to give it time. Not everyone is lucky to find someone right away.

If you can't cope with losing this one and can't find strengh not to think your a loser, then seek professional help. Talking out your fears does help.

Good Luck.

P.S.
You can meet women anywhere. All it takes is a smile or a little Hello to get started.
