What am I so afraid of....?

I'm looking at the guy and I really want to approach, and yet there's so much trepidation. I don't even know where to begin to explain the situation in full because the thing is, in a way, there is no sitaution. There's nothing going on, and yet there could be. But there isn't, and yet there could be.
Does this sound confused - it should do - I haven't a clue where this is going, where my 'situation' is going or where I want it to go.
