Want to add, I work in a restaurant environment and it’s pretty laid back, fun, and touchy feely. I can just be that guy that seems too serious sometimes.

What are some fun easy ways to be less serious and more playful, fun, joyful, specifically with girls that are interested in you. Even with other guys though, too.

It’s like I’ve just come out of monk mode and getting back in the scene. Interest is heavy but it’s like I’m a little too stoic, and I can’t get past this hump in the mind. When the opportunity is there in the moment I’m usually good about it and more loose. But even still, it’s like something, probably some kind of fear, is holding me back.
