Open Question: Afraid to talk to girl im interested in?

[feedcrawler]

There's this girl I see after class sitting down at the chairs just sitting down or studying etc. She has a nice smile, nice voice, and she's really pretty and I really want to get to know her and eventually go out with her but im afraid to go up to her and talk to her (I'm a really shy person). I'm 18 and she's around my age. I'm a nice guy and would love to treat my girl like the world I mean the worst you can say about me is that I have a huge foot fetish but I'm one of the nicest and sweetest guys I know and I've been told that a lot by other girls but I still can't find anyone. Girls, guys, any advice on what to do? What should I talk about? How not to be afraid? How do I approach her? i really need a girl in my life and I would be thankful to have a gf to talk to and hang with.
