Daniel Radcliffe: 'I struggle with dating'

Daniel Radcliffe has admitted that he gets nervous about taking women out on dates.

In an interview with Out magazine, the Harry Potter actor said that after ending a long-term relationship, he found it hard to readjust to being single.

"I was in a relationship with somebody for just about three years, and we broke up just shortly before we hit that mark," he explained.

"But [the breakup] was very amicable. At the moment, I'm just being single and running around chasing girls. I'm not getting too many responses, but, yes, I'm having a go."

He continued: "It's quite nerve-racking because it's not something I'm used to. Not that I struggle with talking, but I have this incredible anxiety about awkward silences and pauses and all that stuff, which I think everybody worries about.

"But I get quite wound up about that beforehand. I do actually manage to get quite chatty in the end - probably too much - and probably a bit boring. I just try to make girls laugh. That's really the only thing I'm particularly good at on dates."

Radcliffe was recently linked to Harry Potter producer David Heyman's step-daughter Olive Uniacke.
