I'm a 17 year old high schooler w/ a modarately high SMV. 5'10 and 155 pounds. I'm an obsessive athlete and thus have low body fat. I dress well too. I also have a vast circle of friends who are considered 'cool' in my extended social circle. I'd consider myself a natural as 8 out of 10 times am able to see the attraction a girl feels for me after getting to know her.

However, I am held back by my ego/pride. I've never asked a girl out. The two relationships I've been in, the girl made most of the big moves. All the while, friends with lower SMVs fall in and out of relationships and tell me detailed stories of what I'm missing out on.

This has made me unhappy. I thought I'd ask the veterans of TRP what advice they had for me.

Any and all feedback will be appreciated.
