Saw an insanely (to me) attractive women at the hardware store today
Blonde, nice body shape, denim shorts, black sleeveless top, hair pulled back in one of those giant clips.
My fear of sexual attraction kicked in even before I'd processed that I thought she was attractive, and I could not under any circumstances convince myself to try and approach her.
She seemed to be on her own. I wouldn't even know *how* to approach her, or assess that she was actually there by herself (without following her around), or whether she had a rock on her left hand or not.
Is this a situation you'd be able to deal with? For me, I went into "I need to get out of here" mode and actually stopped looking for other things I wanted but hadn't got yet, went to pay for what I already had, and left.
The store wasn't super busy (middle of morning on a weekday).
This kind of experience happens all the time for me. I see couples in places like hardware stores that look like they are matches made in heaven and don't have a clue how to go from being single with chronic fear of approaching attractive women to being totally the opposite end (in a loving couple connection).
It's why I actually stopped trying to do dating, amongst other related things.
