Why are you just browsing seddit looking for answers. No matter how much you read it comes down to approaches and practice of the basic principles that we all know. Its not rocket science. We must take action.

The pain period is the worst. AA sucks terribly. But all great things are hard to achieve. You MUST be approaching every girl who is attractive. Drop the 1-10 scale go with a binary. Either you'd fuck her or you wouldn't.

You don't have to close every approach. Relish in that, you never have to make contact with this girl again IF YOU choose not too. Approaching and striking a conversation is half the battle. Strive for progress not for closes or perfection. You may have natural chemistry with this random girl, who knows.

Think about this. You could go out today and completely change your love life. You could have 5 girls blowing up your phone to meet you because of the impact you made on the cold approach. Get the fuck out there and start living. Enjoy the process and learn to laugh at yourself. I know of my first approaches were so awkward now, but those lead to me to where I am. No regrets because every situation offers value through self teaching. Stop taking yourself so fucking seriously. Lighten up and enjoy the climb.

The only limits are what you place on yourself.

The girls are out there, and they are waiting for some one to sweep them off their feet. Time to step up.
