So I feel it's a pretty basic issue that gets covered in the main sub a lot, but not always covered in depth.

Basically as I'm starting out my journey and as such have no plates, Fwb, or can just go out and pick women up, which is part of the problem. When I go out with friends I have an immensely hard time not focusing on trying to pull, which I'm sure hurts my chances a ton when I'm actually talking to them. The only way I've found to not put most of my thought on pulling is getting pretty drunk.

Case and point yesterday I hit it off with a woman after drinking all day, and was pretty drunk. It still went well, I got the number and lots of touching/ positive body language. Got her back to my place, but by this point im long gone, she leaves and I must have fucked something up because she has pretty much no interest in meeting up.

Lost an interesting, cute girl because of being to drunk from not being able to not focus on pulling a girl like an autist, left with a bruised ego.
