I think the difference is that 1:1 I’m pretty okay — it’s just when I’m trying to engage with a group that I start to feel uncomfortable.

Also a gay dude if that changes the equation? Especially at concerts, sometimes all it takes to start something is the right kind of eye contact.

Oh, interesting! I'd wager the other side being male probably helps a lot. I'd recently talked to some women about something similar, and only one in ten had ever hit on or asked out someone directly.

In any case, props to you!
