:crazy:Hello! :D So I'm 20 now and have never been on a date. I... I actually haven't even had my first kiss yet.:unsure: This is a problem because i'm a huge hopeless romantic. I want very badly to be in a relationship but I can't even begin to fathom how to do so. I'm really bad at both flirting and understanding when someone is attempting to flirt with me. I also tend to shy away from those i'm super attracted to and when I do engage in conversation i'm often very flustered and act like a weirdo. :frustrating: In short i'm painfully awkward. So my question to you, my fellow INFP's, is how do you go about relationships? If you have ever been in a situation similar to mine or even just have some good tips i'd love to here them! Thanks for your time! :happy:

A big suggestion though is to better stay away from the easy way - jumping into dating anyone, just to learn how to be in a relationship. Odds are it will fuck you up to a point of no return.
I really think it's worth waiting pure and not ruined from previous heartbreaks or mistakes. This way you will have much more to offer to the relationship too.

I wish I had not felt the pressure from people around and myself to enter a relationship and prove that I can. Have one. I've dated too many wrong people, who have left me hopeless for my future and damaged my self love. It's not worth it. If I could, I would take it back.
@AmisAmora you are right. I wrote it from a subjective point of view and knowing how personal INFPs can take problems and hard we tend to be on ourselves.

But it does depended on the person. Maybe trying out once, twice, getting your heart broken once, would help her understand herself in relationships, her problems, if there are any, if she's stromg enough to look at it rationally.... But be careful, still............

I can sign under what Elli is saying. You gotta be in the right mindset, and in good relationship with yourself before you put yourself out there. Otherwise you might misunderstand your own desperation of proving something to yourself, with "I'm ready to wisely, fully yo into a relationship".

I put myself out there out of desperation and that made more problems than anything else. While I still look back at my experiences with a smile, if I had had them when I was in a better relationship with myself, there would be much more gain and much less pain!
