this is going to sound like a complete PUSSY but apparently there are more guys out there like me than you might think....RSD Tyler talked about how when he first did cold approach pickup, it took him hours walking around just to rack up the balls to ask a girl for her number or something.

similarly, I, a slightly, youthful looking young man (get haaaaardcore ID'd) am intimidated as FUCK in areas populated with attractive young women. it is more intimidating for me to walk into a bar/club with women around my age dressed INTENTIONALLY with the purpose of getting a man to want them to have sex with them, and surrounded by throngs of men who want to do that exact thing.....than it is for me to walk into a gym and start being sassy with the 270 lb gorilla behind the counter.

once i get in there, it's like even though i know i am going out with the intent of finding a girl to have sex with, and that i know that inner primal horniness is buried deep down, the anxiety shuts it clean off so i can't even let anything like that carry through in the conversation or pickup itself. not even words, just the whole vibe disappears because i am anxious.

i am not a virgin (i have had sex with 2 girls) yet even amazingly still i am intimidated when attempting to initiate flirty conversation with a totally random and intimidatingly hot girl. it seems the most obvious solution is to convince myself i am awesome and that i am still good enough for that girl, yes THAT pretty girl in the corner. but easier said than done my bros

what do u think?
