I sometimes find myself taking seduction too seriously. Remember that this is just a social game... that's why its called game.

​

Edit:

I should give some context here, I realized this because of my job. I used to have fun at work when I started and it was an adventure. As the years went by, I stated to take it seriously because everyone told me I should take my career and life seriously. Not only did this cause me to under preform, it gave me performance anxiety. This led me to become a boring, stressed and depressed employee. I started to change my attitude and I am doing much better at work. Being responsible does not necessary mean being serious.

When I say seduction is a game, I mean it is a game for you. You should be having fun with this... after all sex is best when you are having fun. When you stop taking it seriously, you will be willing to try new things, make mistakes which gives you much needed experience and you will have the ability to bounce back from rejections (you tend to not internalize failure if its not serious). If you are finding this journey stressful, it helps a lot to change your attitude towards it and see it for what it really is... a game.
