I went to college in NYC and developed all my PUA skills there. I now find myself living back home in a suburb with a private university nearby. All the students go to this one bar, where I sometimes run into old high school acquaintances (who were more popular than me in hs) but this bar is FILLED with girls, drunk and all sloppy all over the place.

My issue is I find myself reverting back to a shy quiet guy when I'm back in this situation, even though in NYC I hardly ever experienced AA anymore especially not like this...I find myself surrounded by all college kids who seem to all know each other! Yet I only know my two friends I come with, and no one else, and we don't go to their school so I just assume they will think I'm strange.
