“I Want to Date… But I Have No Idea Where to Start”

You see other people pair off so easily chatting, laughing, making plans.
Meanwhile, you’re wondering:

  • How do I even let someone know I like them without making it weird?

  • What do I say when I ask someone on a date?

  • What if they say no? How do I not feel crushed or awkward afterwards?

If you have autism, ADHD, social anxiety or you’ve just never had much dating experience, these questions can feel huge.
It’s not that you don’t want to date, you just don’t know the steps.

And that’s frustrating.

Dating Is a Skill Not a Superpower

Here’s something most people don’t tell you:
those “naturally confident” people?
They weren’t born with a secret talent.
They learned what works… usually by trial and error.

You don’t have to go through all that guesswork.
You can learn the steps up-front and practise them until they feel natural.
