Dating tips for a shy awkward 27 year old female who has never really dated before?

THANK YOU SO MUCH! That was very informative and helpful! I do have some standards, mostly that the kind of guy I want to be with needs to be ambitious and have goals and/or are working towards a career. I worry that I’ll never find a guy like that, that I’m attracted to, who will also be attracted to me.

I have been working on my confidence, slowly but surely. Surprisingly enough not wearing make up has helped a lot with feeling beautiful for the first time in my life. However I do worry guys won’t like that, that it “lowers my beauty” or that I’m prettier wearing make up. But oh well, I guess.
