I haven't been here in a while, thought I might as well post this. I did a successful cold approach yesterday, but I didn't close. It was successful for me because I was able to get over my usual anxiety, start a conversation and maintain that conversation (working on various things related to small talk). She was visiting from the UK, and I noticed I automatically adjusted the conversation, the vernacular, to fit as I was born there (wasn't there for long) and have relatives out there. It was interesting how easily I switched "modes", but it got me thinking. Maybe with enough work I can be whoever I want to be? Do you think acting classes could help with seduction?
