Is it normal that i can't talk to/about women?

So, I am in high school, and I have a /VERY/ hard time talking to girls my age. It is worse if I like her, but even if I've known her for a while, it's still tough. I can't really talk to my friends about girls either. Just feels... wrong. Also, even if I do (by some force of God) talk to/about a girl, I /cannot/ say her name.
As per the advice of my friend, I texted (or technically IM'd) the girl that I have a crush on (very much so!), and my heart rate was higher than it's ever been. So due to that, I highly doubt I could ever talk to her in person, even though I need to.
Is it normal that I can't talk to women? Or is something wrong with me?

    You'll get better at it with age/experience. Don't worry. (:

    The best thing to overcome timidness is to make a complete idiot of yourself in front of some girls you don't know. If that's too much for you, start with just saying 'hello' to strangers to build up some courage.

      I don't know, that still seems a bit much for me...

        When I first started attempting to talk to strangers, it was like my mouth was filled with plaster. As difficult as it was I had to nut up and blurt out that first word, now it's easy for me. Every guy as little bit of an ego, that's why it's difficult to talk to girls. Forget about your ego, drunks don't have an ego and look how confident they are.
