An online friend asked me out and I said no. Need reassurance.

So I (22M) am a single fella and I'm not used to be flirted with nor asked out. I was the type of guy not to get any girls as I was largely unnoticed.

One of my online friends who I've been talking to, "Ana" asked me out. I didn't know what to say, so I said "Sorry, no."

I felt really bad. In reality, I did want to be asked out, but I have no idea what to say or how to be a good boyfriend. How do I ask her out without being awkward??

Be honest and basically say what you just said. And obviously apologize for the mixed messages.

The best answer here is just tell her you panicked and ask if she’s still willing to go out.

Just be open and honest.
