A little about me: I'm a guy with a good education and a decent job lined up after business school. But for some reason, I'm terribly self-conscious all the time (maybe because I have a stutter in my speech and also worry about how I'm coming across to people) and this is affecting my interactions with people and especially with girls. I'm 30 yrs old, but still freeze up some times when I meet a really pretty girl that I might have a crush on. But other times, I'm just fine. It often happens that I'm fine talking to a girl the first few times, which gets her interested, but later, I just start second guessing myself and wonder if she'll like me, and mess up my conversations on future dates. I also find it hard to be entertaining and interesting throughout a date -- there are times I get quiet and there are awkward pauses. Is the guy always supposed to be entertaining? I mean, isn't the girl also supposed to join in and help the guy out if there's an awkward silence? How do I improve?
