Worried about dating?
Im 15 and kinda am worried about dating and stuff. Im a dude and i always was a shy kid, it took me all year in 7th grade JUST to ask for a girls number. My armpits sweat when im nervous so i want to avoid that. I had only one kinda REAL relationship. I met her on the dating app meetme. I met her once in person, just for a few because she was at a friends house and her friends parents weren't there. We held hands and talked, hugged before i left. Then her dad goes thru her phone and looks at ALL the messages. He hates me and i did nothing wrong. Usually i get pissed at parents that try to do that but i was polite and nice, you know tge whole yes sir yes ma,am stuff. But he said that she can only date at 16 and he's mormon. She doesn't want to be. But i find out that the dude i was friends with on there was her ex, apparently she dumped him for me, told me she was single, i got to talk to her again and she didnt fight for me. But my question is how can i not be nervous, gain some confidence, and get out there. Btw im home school because of all the school fights (not my fault), and i dont have much to any friends or a way to get around. No siblings advice, sisters out of town and brothers in the army.

The more you get out there and socialize, your confidence level will increase and you will be less tense. A good way to start is to participate in a club or other adult supervised youth group with other kids your age that share your interests. You'll be more comfortable socializing if you are engaged in an activity that you enjoy.
Additional: A lot of parents don't let their children date until they reach a more emotionally mature age, but 15 is a good age to be thinking about and preparing for dating. That's one reason I suggested adult supervised group settings. It's a safe environment, but you have enough freedom to develop social skills and friendships with members of the opposite sex.

First you should realize that girls are normal like you care, if you keep that in mind you can be able to approach girls easier. if your sweating you should get a good deodorant that lasts all day.
as far as getting around you can always find a place to go around town close to both of you, or take a bus some where that can help too.
just don't think too much about it when try to talk to her, keep your mind clear and just remember what i said.

What is appropriate for a Mormon girl (and boy!) at 15 is to go on group dates, like dances or other group activities. Ask her about her church dances. Or ask her if you can attend Young Men/Young Women with her. It is a weekly social activity for teens.
I was very shy, but attending YM/YW helped.
