I want to date but I’m shy

bl

So I’m 21 but I never had like dating experience.in high school I was always in a talking stage but never entered the dating stage.

Now I want to date and get to know someone but I’m shy 😟 I get really really shy and I won’t say anything unless they come up too me.

Like at this point I was thinking about downloading a dating / friend app or something like that. I don’t know how to not be so shy
