Warez, you need to develop a strong social network of friends before you start going out on dates. That will provide you with more and more social skills. Also, having a supportive social network will help to improve your self-esteem, without that self-esteem your problems will only become worse.

Also, you act as if you need to go out with someone in order to feel happy. This couldn't be further from the truth, you're just setting yourself up for more disappointment. What will lead to long term happiness though is having lots of good friends who have got your back and provide help.

Trust me when I say that being in a relationship will not make the world rosey, you're in love with the idea of love. Seems as if you're trying to get into a relationship just to have one, not because you really have formed a connection with that person. Go forward now and it won't last, you'll simply become more discouraged.

You've got to learn to walk before you can run! Otherwise, you'll just be asking for pain.
