I've been a long time lurker on this subreddit, absorbing information, theories, techniques for over a year now. I've been reading most of the books suggested and I had been feeling great and confident about meeting new women around town and in my college. There is a 10/10 model who studies in my college and I've always wanted to approach her and get talking. I've visualized the scenario over and over, where I would see her and go up to her and introduce myself. In my mind, I knew I could do it. Today, I had gone to the canteen with a friend to grab a quick bite and while we were eating, the girl came in with a friend and sat on the bench right next to mine. And I did nothing. Nothing at all. Internally, I tried to draw up everything I learnt from you guys over the past year, but I kept drawing blanks. There were lulls in the conversation they were having which would have been the ideal time to interrupt and say hi but I did nothing. I feel like everything I've learnt over the past year has gone to waste. The thousands of hours I spent, researching, reading, has bore no fruit. I feel as useless and beta as I first was when I started browsing this subreddit. I feel like I have failed you.
