I can't think of a better word than charming at the moment but basically I mean just sort of knowing what to say, how to say it, when to move, how to move etc to give yourself the best chance at building rapport and escalating romantically with women.

I've been with enough women and read enough literature that it really should feel quite natural to me by now...but actually I still feel like a fucking high school student in many ways.

I still overthink everything and nothing feels effortless, in some ways I feel like I'm actually getting worse at connecting with people.

Maybe that's just how it is, and maybe the change I need to make is more of an internal one i.e. stop giving as much of a fuck about gaining other people's approval and start expressing myself more - saying what I want, when I want etc ...but I'm pretty certain most charming people you meet are a bit more calculated than that.

Does it ever become easier and more natural?
