It's like... trying to get yourself to jump off a 15 foot cliff. You know you won't die, but you know it'll be difficult as hell to not f**k it up and end up hurt.I love crazy analogous metaphors.
I was very much like you - I enjoyed socializing with woman that I was not attracted to, but I had trouble with girls that I was interested in. A big shift in my life happened when I realized that I should start enjoying those funny feelings instead of allowing them to make me nervous. I realize that it is hard to enjoy a turning stomach, but try thinking of it as excitement as opposed to anxiety. Try learning to enjoy being around attractive women.Obviously easier said than done, but in my case I was surprised at how quickly the shift happened.

I like to keep to myself and stay quiet. I am, after all, being myself.

Otaking : I'd assume he meant "being attractive" in a general sense, not just in regards to looks.
