So yeah, Im 25, never had a relationship before. I have a big package from my family, which resulted in me wanting to have a love life, but not letting anyone close, nor trying to get close to someone, because I hated myself so much that I didnt want the burden of being with me for anyone. A few years back I started therapy, and I worked out a lot of shit. Well theres this issue that the whole of my teenage years, and first half of my twenties, when everybody was learning how to flirt and date etc, I was heavily concentrated on not killing myself.
I occasionally find women who seem to be interested in me, but I somehow unable to tell if they like me as a friend, or more a potential future partner. I got to the point where now I can ask them out for a coffee or something similar, but I am too afraid to ask them out on a date. (On my native language, we dont use the word dating as casually as in english). So here I am again, with a girl who we've been texting since last November, and all I managed to do a few days back is to ask her out for a coffee, and now going back and clarifying that this coffee would be a date seems like the worst possible option.
Anybody who came late to the party, and had do pick up these skills in their mid-late 20s, Id appreciate some advice on the topic, because I feel like Im hopeless.
