Alright, story is as follows:

My friend has a massive crush on a chick, who I will generously rate at about 4, maybe 5 on a good day. He's not too great looking himself so you can't say he's shooting out of his league. The problem with this, is that he is too much of a punk ass to actually ask her out. He believes firmly that if he is friendly enough with her, and gets her alone for a moment, he can ask her out. Nevermind the fact that it's been 3 weeks since he said he'd ask her out. Nevermind the fact that when he gets the opportunity he literally shakes like a dude with Parkinson's disorder and gives up before he even attempts.

Being the friend I am, I just try to introduce him to this, stupid idea to thrust him headfirst into this, but he like a rather accepting person, who's open to all kinds of new ideas, but this place to him is a "cesspool of misogyny." I attempt to tone the message down, even break down the introductory messages on the side bar, and deconstruct the logical fallacies in his argument, I show him the success I have with women just working on what this forum has taught me.

His response is: "I don't want to play love games to get a girl man, I want someone to like me for me. If I have to wait until I'm 40 to find one girl I will do that."

I say, "Alright well let's just build your confidence and you can use my weight room, and you can clean up your face and looks with a bit of proactiv dude." and he gives the most BP response I have ever heard... "But that requires work dude..." and I'm about to just give up on this dude.

I attempt to use some Patrice O'neal analogies, on him to hopefully get him to understand his situation, but he literally calls me out in public, on comparing women to animals. (No one gave a damn, but still it's a dick move.)

Any of you think I should keep trying to help him out here, or just leave him to rot?
