Quick answers
Is dating in a dense metro normal for Gen Z?
Very. Swipe fatigue and social performance pressure make nerves spike even when you want connection.

Use low-pressure taste games or short chats where the stakes are play, not proof.
What if I freeze anyway?
Name it lightly, ask one specific question, and give yourself permission to leave on time.
