What does dar cosa mean?

ExpressionColoquial

to feel awkward about something

To make you feel awkward, embarrassed or a little uneasy. It is vague on purpose: the cosa goes unnamed because the speaker couldn't say what it is either. Very common, and hard to translate.

Me da cosa escribirle tan pronto.
Nothing in the way but a feeling.
