Hi I think I'm a pretty okay guy. I mean I'm normal, funny, kind, well-behaved when I'm with my friends, but when I like someone I just dunno how to be myself. I get tongue tied and dunno what to say to her. Can't crack jokes and run out of things to say. I get extremely quiet and all I do is doing her favors i.e. giving her stuff and driving her. Plus I get carried away and neglect other parts of my life. All my focus is on her. It gives her a lot of pressure and she finds me weird and feels awkward hanging out with me. So, question is, how does one behave like one's normal self around someone he/she likes?

Well it's you who is putting the pressure on it, not her.

 

If you think of it, aren't you a bit sick already of having to think, pretend and all that? Just go with the flow ;)

Yea but how do I stop myself from being nervous and go with the flow?

Step 1: Remember to breathe. Breathe in a 4 count, hold 4, and breathe out 8 count. Your brain needs oxygen to think. When you see something that excites you (like a girl you like)... what usually happens? You start breathing in shallow breathes. So be aware of your breathing.

 

Step 2: Don't be attached to the outcome. Be carefree and stop caring about the results. Similar to Eastern Philosophy of unattachment.

 

Step 3: Talk to everyone. Practice being social with everyone and it will become a habit that carries forward when you start talking to the hot girls you like.

 

Step 4: If all else fails, give her my phone number and I will straighten her out.

Yea I tend to want to impress her because I'm afraid of losing her if she thinks I'm boring. And I do usually end up being boring
