MAN that opening paragraph hit so close home (to all of us I guess). But actually, he could have written this and it would still have been the better scenario of the two. Check out this scenario boys, for those of you who aren't quite there yet (me included):

*What should happen: *

You get up off your ass, you walk over to her, smiling all the way, call out

'hey!'

she turns around, you come up, *say something silly from the top of your head, she smiles but you see her thinking 'errrrr this guy is a bit weird why is he coming up to me like that?' You try teasing her about her hand bag, she gets slightly annoyed, says 'ok sorry gotta go now' and walks away. Oh noes! You shrug, say whatever, and return back to your buddies who watched you crash and burn and are all laughing. You join them in the laughter as you tell what exactly you told her and how it did not go very well. Everybody had fun, and you learn that some girls can be sensitive about their hand bags and you shouldn't start teasing before you have at least a bit of rapport. Beers for everybody! *

See? Even that's a waaay better scenario then rationalizing, doing nothing, and ending up frustrated when she leaves. So if you do not have 'solid game': go out there and have some fun interacting with strangers, they are just strangers after all, who cares :-)

I'm just a little through it, but in case some one decides to just read the comments here instead of the post, they're missing this awesome link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wJ-js_NLV8

“People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.”

Sick Quote.

This just gave me a funny line to try out.

"I'm a man and I like pretty things and you are a pretty thing. Who are you?"

Also I really like "Happiness is not a destination, its just a means of travel." This reminds me of my buddies who ride motorcycles for fun. They have no destination they just want to enjoy the mode of transportation.

This has been a great read. Skipped a few lines here and there but read most of it and I can relate, the comics were a touch of humor needed, for me at least. This past weekend I approached many girls at the bar/club and had some negative responses but had some great responses. Got a number, a dance and in general a good time. Reading this article has helped me realize I'm progressing very well and I'm pleased. Thanks for the read!

Fucking hell, this post is good. The Bill Hicks video aswell complements what you are saying PERFECTLY. Fuck, why leave this post's validity confined AA? This should be a sticky on every forum about any type of anxiety.
