I asked out over 200 women. In the end, I got 60 numbers, 2 dates, and 0 lays.

I’m a high school student (18yr virgin), in good shape, lots of passions, and a crazy amount of work ethic. In a past life I was really, really, really, shy and beta, never saying how I felt, incredibly stifled. So to make up for that, I committed myself to learning game. I would approach everyday, using a direct line like “You’re Gorgeous. I’m gorgeous. We should go out.” I got positive responses, and numbers, but then the “I’m just too busy for a relationship,” rejection would come by text, or the “Let’s just be friends.” These were not total strangers; most of them were girls at my high school, who I knew by first name.

Advice? I’m a snappy dresser, but have the face of a chubby ostrich (Has been confirmed by reddit and friends, but I’ve made my peace with it.) I’m running out of girls I vaguely know! Where else can turn, and how can I lose the v-card? I don’t have access to parties, other schools, or college campuses. I’m considering an escort, but I’d prefer to lose it through effort and struggle, not a few crumpled bills I can’t afford to throw away.

Any suggestions? I’m open to anything. Fire away.
