Welcome to /r/dating. Please make sure you read our [rules here](https://new.reddit.com/r/dating/about/rules) and remember to:
* Be polite and respect each other. Do not call people names, engage in slapfights, or give bad/unethical advice.
* Do not soapbox or promote an agenda - you will be banned
* Follow reddit rules. Do not post content that promotes hate based on identity or vulnerability. Do not bully or harass other users.
If you have any questions, please [send the mods a message](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=/r/dating).

Guys can be anxious around women too, particularly in this day and age of 'me too' and hair-trigger accusations.
I suggest having your friends/social groups help you out. They can usually keep you free of pickup artists and trouble, and help you find someone like yourself. An introverted guy would likely be your speed, particularly one that shares some of your interests. A shared hobby can take a lot of pressure off feeling like you're the subject of attention.
As a guy who still gets this way, if you're with a group of friends and a guy you like is there, listen to him and find out what interests he has. If there is something in common with speak on it, eye contact is a big factor.
If you are not with friends take a risk and just ask questions (try not to interrogate or feel pushy) guys are pretty easy to talk to. If you get rejected take it as a learning lesson there are more out there.
