    Try not giving a sh|t. Take a risk, and see if she laughs. If she doesn't, nothing lost. If she does, bingo. Take out one highlighted word (worry) and the other two will go as well.

    stop worrying.
    you are paralysing youself.

    and one tip, you have no idea what other people think, so stop making your own mind up about it.

    Thats a good point! I think we are all guilty of that at times!

    You know, I have a friend who has a great saying and I feel that it's really appropriate here. To quote the great Doyler: "Chill the **** out". By which i mean, don't worry. Be yourself. If a girl doesn't like you for that, then she's not right for you. Act yourself and you'll someone who will like you for it.
