“I've been watching all my friends getting into relationships since middle school, and yet somehow it feels like no one's ever felt that way about me. I've been interested in many different people, over the years, but I'm afraid of trying to take the initiative because I'm worried I'll mess up the moment I try making a connection. I don't really know how to deal with this. Do I just go for it or should I take a more deliberate approach?”

Focus on becoming an attractive person. Not physically, though that helps, but someone who people enjoy being around. At some point, statistically, you will find someone who will enjoy spending time with you - naked. It's a numbers game, man.
