I seem to come here whenever I want relationship advice, and this community has so far done an excellent job in helping me out. Here we go again...

I have always had a problem asking girls out. I'm the kind of guy who is friends with a girl for a year before asking them out on a date. Even then, I still have trouble. It seems I only do it when there are very obvious signs that point to a relationship.

My problem stems from self-esteem and confidence. I'm always afraid of her saying "no". That's why I wait for a year and a strong signal.

It's not just that too. I always look down the road and what's coming at me. I crave patterns and something like a new relationship just throws me off entirely. A semester of college is ending and another one will begin in less than a month. Another pattern gone and one to pick up. It's at this point I seem to convince myself that though I want a relationship, I can't really handle one. Should I even try at this point of my life? My last relationship started at the end of last winter semester and ended at the start of fall BECAUSE I wanted to focus on school and she wanted more time then I was willing to offer. Should I avoid this until I'm out of school and in a solid job?

My last post for advice was about wanting to love. Well, I found my shot but I am too afraid.

IMO, I would hold off on a realtionship right now. You don't seem ready. If you have to question whether you're ready for a relationship or not, the answer is no. If it seems right for you to focus more on school right now, do so. A relationship would probably just throw you off track ATM.

Unless your 12 you dont need to be trying to ask someone out cause you need to figure out who you are and what you want.

..relationships come and go an education last forever...you just need to find someone who is more suited to "your" needs..jmo...

Keep to your education, thats seems to be your first want in life.And a very good one.
Have friends to hang with only.And if there is a gal that shows intrest in more, just be clear, right now you have only time for friendship, nothing more, your education is 100% first...

You can thank me later when you have your first 100k job..deal?
