When I like someone, I act really off with them!

When I really like a guy, I get so nervous. I'm fine chatting to them on MSN or text, but when it comes to talking face to face, I just clam up! I really don't know why this is. It even happens when I know that they like me back; for example, recently I pulled a guy and we spent the whole night chatting, but when I saw him again the next night, I felt shy and ended up ignoring him! My mates say I come across to the guy as really cold and aloof, and I must look like such an unfriendly, stuck up cow! I'm really not like that at all, and I don't know why I do it. Please help!
I'm especially worried because I'm meeting this guy soon that I really, really like and I think he likes me back, but I just know that I'll end up beng really silent and aloof when we get together. I've mucked up loads of potential relationships through this weird thing I have and I really need advice on how to get over it! Thanks xx
Ditto.I'm always sooo cold and aloof to the objects of my affection and I honestly have NO explanation for it!
Nerves and shyness, obviously.

All you need to remember is that men are human just like us. Yes from time to time your going to say something stupid! i am sure we have all been there! Just laugh it off and start again. Just be confident! he is likely to be nervous as well if its a first date so your probably both in the same boat.
