I've been on TRP/Pickup/etc. subreddits for a long time and tried some of the things. But I didn't have enough time to go all in on picking up girls, because I have a full-time job, full-time bachelors(finishing), go to the gym 3x a week and once or twice a week go out with friends. But I genuinely want to gain at least some experience in dating/plate spinning/etc., so sometimes I approach girls, plus I've set up a reasonably successful account on Tinder. But after initial pickup line and even on first dates, I'm fairly bad at texting/flirting, so I act kinda friendly and beta-like(even though I understand that it's a bad way to be).

TL;DR

  1. So, how do I learn how to text on tinder and practice part of picking up girls, while having a very tight schedule?
  2. How to I know that it's the right time in my life to do it? (I am also afraid that if I don't get enough experience now, at 20 y.o., it will be much harder to get later)
