Its like speed dating but worse because the object is monetary, not sexual or emotional.
I used to be like this too, but not anymore really, atleast not atm. I walk around with great confidence (probably unjustified) in lots of different social situations nowadays. If you would have asked me back then, I'd have told you I'm just not up for such things, it isn't for me, etc. Now I have had to change that opinion. I think it has to do with a set of specific skills you need to develop to make social experiences more enjoyable, even the typically awkward ones. Ofcourse everything is always up for change with me. If I have something on my mind that I'm very interested in and want to figure out, I can focus on that to an extreme level and shut out every else, that's something of which I can say it's how I have always been.
Also, I much prefer blondes over readheads personally, even the fake blonde ones. I mean, just look:
