scared to play anyone

I am a self-proclaimed intermediate player. I have been playing off and on for years. I grant you, I am not very good; I tend to make huge blunders because I play too quickly, and I don't analyze the board completely. So, I've been playing the computer for about a week now (since I found this site), I've been beating level 5 pretty regularly. The thing is, I am scared to play anyone live. Has anyone else ever had this problem as a newbie?
