I'm 57 now and thought it does not affect me so much, but I was so shy around women for years. I really don't know why but I ruined many a date because of it. Maybe because of my gender issues. Maybe because my mother always told me what she would do if I was bad to a girl. She never told how to be with one. Once I went to a topless bar with some coworkers and they noticed I didn't really get into it. The next day at work some of my coworkers told others that I must be gay (I'm not) because I didn't act a fool like they did. I really don't know. I'm glad my wife was the one who asked me out because I didn't see any others who wanted me. Anyone else feel like this ?
