I have made ammends with the fact that I'll never have the courage to just get to a girl and start talking to her just out in the street. Not a frequent visitor of pubs and clubs either, even if I did. Don't have any hobbies that would involve meeting new people, nor do I frequent any conventions or such. Best chance I've got is talking to someone from my workplace, someone I already know at least to some extent. However, there are problems aswell. How do I strike a conversation that would actually lead to me asking them out? Like, do I, in the middle of the conversation, just awkwardly blurt out "Wanna go out sometime?" or what?

Last time I've done this was nearly 10 years ago, back then it was way easier because not many adolescents have any experience/expectations/high standards. I've fallen behind ever since then, and, well, I need to start looking for a partner again. Really looking forward to hearing your insights, thanks
