AASECTS, therapy. Fuck that noise.
Therapy isn't always bad.

You write well and you seem like your IQ is above 100. You need to put yourself under pressure. And you need to fuck the novice out of your system. You need to force yourself to escalate. Do this when you approach a girl.
Now, you have put yourself under pressure. You have demonstrated that your after more than just friendship and you will have to escalate steadily or eject. It will be exciting and terrifying. There is no hunting like the hunting of women, and those who have hunted women long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.

My usual routine goes
I don't like the generic compliments like, "you're cute" because I think the highly specific statements get smiles more often.

Read "Models" by Mark Manson. And practice, practice, practice.

GO OUT AND APPROACH. TAKE ACTION.
It's a good thing you made this approach because it shows that you're proactively doing something. But there are still SO MANY resources out there that can give you answers right this seconds. Try the sidebar. Try using Google. Try the many other PUA resources (e.g. rsdnation).
I personally love rsdnation since I resonate with RSD's material, but maybe you won't. It's worth checking out, and if it doesn't work for you, then you still learned something.
But at the end of the day, you need to practice, not accumulate knowledge that is useless without the necessary context and experience to implement it correctly. Go out and approach. Go to bars or clubs or public parks or public transportation or wherever and open sets.
Just go out and talk to girls. Go out, go out, go out, go out.
Competence and confidence will result from experience, lots of hardships, lots of successes, and lots of failures. There is nothing you can do right this second to suddenly transform into a super-pimp. There is nothing right this second you can do to suddenly achieve god-like confidence. There is nothing you can do right this second to suddenly stop being socially awkward.
Those things happen as a result of lots of experience over a long period of time. So go out and take action. It will come eventually.
I hope I didn't sound like I'm attacking you (I just woke up and honestly I'm a little cranky), it's not my intention. It's just that, 99.9999999% of the problems on this subreddit can be solved by taking action.

Honestly, a number close and then a second date. Nothing else.

Nope. Can't escalate. Triggers panic. Thats an excuse. Fuck that. But overcoming these old demons is hard.

You don't need help! Just read Aaron Sleazy's book Minimal Game which I think is great and then STOP GETTING HELP!. Go talk to girls after that with the knowledge from the book and fill in the blanks yourself. You will get laid in at most 90 days or so. If you have this I need help attitude, you would've been like me where I actually took a quasiPhD in seduction and at the end of it it still took filling the blanks by my self to get laid. You simply can't gather enough knowledge by mPUAs alone. You need to learn to paint the Mona Lisa by painting not but reading books about painting and even then you won't paint the exact Mona Lisa. You simply don't need another PUA dating coach to help you. Hang out with your natural friends which could be the best thing that can happen to you. BTW, therapy is also good for you.

There's some good advice in this thread I think. I'm not going to really comment on anything else because I have no idea what your situation could actually be like. I will say this though. Don't stop jerking off. That is the stupidest piece of hippy bullshit I've ever heard. Jerking off feels good. I still approach women. I don't see a problem.

The next step is understanding that rejection isn't a big deal. Girl getting groceries, chat her up. Girl at the gym, give her a wink. Girl being a girl, show her you're a guy.

Oh man yeah rejection isn't a big deal. I said somewhere else I had a job that hardened me agaisnt rejection. And I've had a few moments where I can get girls to smile and chat randomly on the streets, it never occured to pursure it. I'll work on the "show her you're a guy " part. Thats a good way to put it. Thanks.
