I'm trying to get rid of this "I'm not good enough, so why bother" mentality. It's this way of thinking that prevents me from asking anyone out or even being attracted to anyone. The last time I even remotely had a crush on someone was my sophomore year in high school. Since then, I haven't been attracted to anyone because of how I feel towards myself.

I've been talking to Saya almost everyday now, and she suggests that I talk to the next person I like, but like I said, I don't become attracted to anyone anymore, so there's no one to talk to. I'm also trying to refrain from online dating, because that won't help my confidence at all.

I need help before I just give up altogether and become a priest or something (and I'm not even religious)

Talk to people even if you are not attracted to them. Simple friendship is itself rewarding, encouraging, and will build your confidence and happiness.
