I never had issues getting past the conversation step. I always had issues identifying cues and knowing when it was "safe" to proceed further; or second guessing the cues. In my fear, I never asked any girls out even when the stars aligned. I'd smack young self if I could.
If a you like girl asks you to go to the biggest action movie of the summer on a 1:1 and throughout the movie cringes at the fighting and gore... you didn't just miss the cue. You missed the "you have no idea how much I like you" parade.
Worst part was, in hindsight, it was mutual. The fear of not knowing whether it was "safe" to proceed kept me from going further even though I really wanted to date her well in advance to this situation.
