Hey everyone, Ok so the thing is, im 23 years old and never had a girlfriend. I was overweight all throughout my childhood and highschool and even though Ive gotten in shape, my self esteem and self confidence has never recovered. I have no problem talking with girls, unless its someone I actually have an interest in dating. I never feel Im good enough, and always end up talking myself out of asking them out. Today I ran into a girl that I haven't seen since I was 5, and somehow she recognized me. I don't think that this is an accident, and I really want to ask her out, but I have no courage or confidence in myself. I need prayer that God will strengthen me, and allow me to do this. Im sick of going through life alone, I just wanna give it a shot for once.
 
Praying for you in Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Dont worry about being shy, many women find this to be a wonderful thing in a guy. :)
God Our Father created you as you are for the special one that He created for you.

God bless.

Many people feel inadequate, girls included. Rejection is tough but it is not an assured thing. Loneliness is a definite if you never put forth an effort. It's that simple. Acting on it is the tough part. For that I lift you up in prayer that God will show you your value and worth, grant you strength and courage, and bless you in your relationships. I pray that he will lead you to the one who is right for you and have all faith that he will do this.
 
You've got nothing to lose... If she says no, you'll have that much more courage to ask someone else. Maybe she wants you to ask her out...
