Discomfort with the opposite sex

[Weiser]

Also, that attitude won't get you anywhere. If you are thinking that, women can tell.

yeah well i went out with my friend all week and it wasnt a good week, the one place there were girls he wanted to leave and the other place where i tried to talk to girls there wernt any. but still its all excuses from me...my problem is that if i drink i get depressed and lose whatever confidence that i have...its like my friend at the bar said i think too much, i have to just go do it...i need a stronger wingman, so he can make me do it, ,cause i wont on my own.

You don't need anything except the desire to stop making excuses and actually approach some women.

You wear your thoughts and behavioral patterns like a cheap suit and women just don't find it attractive.

BTW, there is no one place to talk to women because women are everywhere. You're missing tons of valuable lessons by passing up that woman waiting at the streetlight next to you, the woman in the produce isle, the checkout girl, etc.

There's women everywhere, talk to them, dump your personal agenda (getting laid) and things will happen.

well im now the last of my friends to not have a girl, my friend that visited went home and got one, so if i cant use that for motivation, nothing will.

DA, I'm going to pull your stuff out of this topic and move it to an adjacent topic as I want to keep this discussion focused more on what women look for in men and vice versa. I'm hoping this article will be the launch for a larger project so keeping it as close to the original item as possible is necessary.

That said, this post and my post above will likely be deleted in the long run as well.

This made me laugh....I know you didn't mean that the way it sounds...but still (actually it makes it funnier). Hope you're laughing WITH me, Duke.

Women, like everyone, like to be complimented. I mean Genuinely, not gratuitously. And we all know it doesn't really matter how you appear, as much as how sincere you are. For example, if a homeless guy came up to me and told me that I looked happily radiant, I'd question the motive, but I'd probably be more likely to give him some change.

lol, ya I realized the connection might be made but left it in anyway.

da, I had to split these posts from the original news topic discussionas it was detracting from the input I was hoping to receive. I also feel this is a far more adequately titled topic and hope you all can agree.

Just out of curiosity, have you gained any courage around gals or are you still a bit gun shy?
