It wasn't easy when I asked my sponsor to be my... sponsor. I'm naturally an introvert. I didn't realize this until a few weeks of sobriety. I had to steel myself to ask him, and that was after a few I chickened out on. I'm glad I did, it worked out fantastically. I've never felt pressured; the 5th step was a relief in ways I couldn't have imagined.
Also remember that as a sponsee you're helping your sponsor. It's really a two-way partnership. After a certain point you're getting more out of the program by helping others and passing on what you've learned. By seeing someone else get better like you did.
