So all my life I never cared about girls to the point where I had pretty much solid MGTOW views and said girls and sex aren't worth it I'll just get an arranged marriage. These were my actual views till I was 19. Never even interacted with them or anything. Never had a female friend. Everything I know about girls is from seddit.

I learned a few things here and there but failed miserably and had eight straight rejections (even though I did manage to get a few numbers. No dates) Then I fell into deep depression, cut off ties with all friends (so currently no social circle at all) and basically all my confidence got shattered and I locked myself in my room studying and doing dork shit all day.

Anyways here I am. Ive been lifting and been talking to random people for the past two months to rebuild my confidence. Today I went to my first meetup and I realized I still got it. I have the confidence to go upto random people and talk to them. And that's a big victory cause im confident that I can do this. I'm not doubting myself.

However here's the thing. I've only got a month to ride this high wave before school/work starts again and it comes crashing down. I NEED to see some success in this free time. At least a date or two. Here are my problems:

1) No social circle and no real time to get one that'll help anyways in that timeframe. No club/bar experience or money for alcohol. Plus that won't help going at it alone. So basically don't know where/how to meet women for approaching. This is the biggest problem for me atm.

2) Sucky social skills/game. Even though I'm confident, I can approach random people and talk, I'll say something but it'll be awkward or out of place. Its like I'm not on the same frequency as the person I'm talking to. Like I see it as a chess match and it feels to mechanical and if I'm making the wrong move. There's just too much game to be learned in a month and I can't internalize it. Its not natural what I'm saying and at the same time I don't know what to say besides that cause I've never interacted with women before. Any ideas/crash courses for noobs on this issue?

3) Time Anxiety. Mind is telling me "Your fucked if you can't figure this out now at the prime of your life. You'll be foreveralone" This shit really shows, throws me off my game and causes other things like approach anxiety and laziness.

So I'm pretty much starting over from scratch with a little more added problems and a month to figure this out. Any suggestions on how one would tackle this?
