Its easy to think someone is your perfect type and see this as a massive missed opportunity. But turns out life isn't that simple at all.

There's no one right person for you. There are people that will be different levels of good and despite that you'll still have to fight to make things work. And often the kind of person people think will be right for them isn't.

Basically there's very little to regret because there was no definite positive outcome. But there's an opportunity to realise a few things about yourself here, and maybe look into that anxiety/awkwardness.

(Maybe ask: What was your subconscious scared of?)
