ENough of this suffering

Try reading The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.

You sound like me at about 20 years old OP. Don't stress out about it so much, these things happen, don't force them. Put your self in situations with people and it feels natural and easy asking girls out.

OP, I feel for you, I truly do. /lit/ will probably shit on you, but pay no attention to them. To be honest, books might not be the best solution right now. If you need a book, I would recommend Steppenwolf for its brilliant portrayal of a profound light hearted happiness that you should strive for. In my experience, the thing that helped me the most is focusing on my self. Creating a strong self, with ideals that you truly believe in, so that you are not constantly basing your conception of yourself on what others think. Accepting your flaws and knowing your strengths with truly deep introspection. This is much harder than I'm putting it, and above all it takes patience, and a willingness to live and to interact with others. Don't try to perfect yourself in the eyes of others, try to perfect yourself in your own eyes, in what you know about yourself. Because you alone know what you are worth, and the judgment of others is secondary, as they only have a partial and flawed picture of you. Just know that if you are patient, and remain hopeful, and continue to try to love and understand others, that you can become a true person, can put your image and belief in yourself above the faulty images of others. Just reading this won't help you that much, but in my experience living by these words and trying constantly to see the world through this lens has helped me immensely
