Good for you, are you suffering from anxiety? I just wanna understand the context
[–]Taurusamazing92 14 points15 points16 points 5 years ago (10 children) | Copy Link
Generally? No. In that moment? Yes
As I said, everyone was with their friends and I went by myself. I just felt so awkward by myself and didn't necessarily want to disturb people when they're with their groups.
My anxiety creeped in really bad I guess

Ok, that's good then, its a start, now you know your minimum... 3 people, next time make it 4.

Only a pleasure mate, i know how approach anxiety can hit you hard especially when you by yourself, like you it took many attempts to finally be comfortable with being by myself when i go out and approach people. Im now a "natural" lol

How did you become a natural?
[–]blackoxymoron 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
It took me a long journey of self discovery of knowing the true self, knowing every deep dark corner of my soul to finally have real confidence in myself.
Once i had inner confidence i started to practice, o had severe approach anxiety, i also made an effort to seek out mentors who are better than me to teach me(at no cost) how to be a better man, learned that focusing on my life goals and not chasing women meant women chased me and as i interacted more and more with women i learned their nature(its highly important to learn female nature).
Coz once i knew my self and started working on my lofe goals and stopped chasing women, and also learned female natuee, it finally clicked, i was like Neo im the matrix, i wasn't afraid anymore of the "agent smiths" and i embraced my masculinity and that ia how you become natural... Hope it makes sense

Thanks, yes, that helped. When did you start your journey and how old are you now? I'm pretty much at the same point as OP.
Forget that, don't measure how long it took, my time definitely not good to compare because its not gaurenteed you will have the same time. What is important is that this journey is never ending.

Protest isn’t really a place to sociallise. Go to a party or at least something fun!
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Why would you do that at a protest? Church is way better
[–]sunshineandhail 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
3 is more than 0!
Keep at it and it will get easier. And like you said, at least you did something.

Good for you buddy!!! Just keep at it! Talking to 3 complete strangers at a protest...that's awesome man! 👍🏽

Going to a protest to meet women doesn't seem like a good idea... Protests are filled with people in a negative mental state. Not saying the people are bad, but their mood is not in one open to finding what you are looking for. Unless you both like being in a climate of yelling about what you hate.
Protests are for complaining about a problem and sending a message for everyone to see that other people are upset too. Not for making friends or to talk. You'll get more attention if you take off your shirt and start chanting something though.
I would stick to grocery stores or fun activities that aren't so emotional.
