<human>: Whenever I have a chance to initiate really anything romantic (kissing, spooning, even holding hands -_- ), I freeze up and become a lump. I know that she's into me and everything, she's even expressed frustration with one of my friends. It has become so bad that I almost talked to her about why we don't really do anything (super awkward) instead of trying to do something (almost assuredly less awkward). I have been able to overcome the problem in the past, but it's always so difficult, and its been really bad lately. We ARE in a romantic relationship, just not openly to our friends, or each other, really. Now, my hesitation could come from anywhere; the fact that my parents never really advised me on girls, or openly showed affection for each other making it seem like an awkward interaction to me, that I'm worried about how quickly college is approaching, or that I'm just not too smooth at this kind of thing. I don't really care about any of that though, I need to know how to overcome it and fast, we're hanging out tomorrow and enough is enough (too embarrassed to give the full story on how pathetic I am). How do I get over this paralysis. And please don't tell me "don't be a pussy", I'm earnestly frustrated and am trying my hardest...

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: 17M can't initiate anything romantic with a girl he is obviously interested in, who is obviously interested in him, even when we are hanging out alone for extended periods of time.
