Alright, a bit about me before my report. I've been a long time lurker and have thoroughly observed different PUA methods and approaches. They have helped me a little bit but I have found my own method that seemed to have worked. I wouldn't even call it a method, its really just a situation of go for it and have a good time. this obviously will only really work in certain situations. I am a 24 year-old fat guy (312 lbs, lost 28 so far, well on my way to my weight loss goal). That being said, I've always been very insecure and self conscious. I still have my V-Card and it has bothered me until these past 3 months that I have been going out. Anyways, I've always enjoyed the club scene as I am a huge fan of EDM. Not the best location for approaching the ladies but I figured it would be a good place to start - giving me a good challenge. I have been a frequent patron of this club and the staff all know me because initially I was "That Guy" that hung out in the corner watching. They worked on getting me out of my shell and I became more open. Yes, I was a creeper all due to my awkwardness and social retardation at the beginning. I had opened up a bit but I still had approach anxiety and was still very self conscious. Hell, I was still awkward with hugs to be honest, due to my extreme lack of experience and physical interaction with women. I had danced with a few girls that would drag me onto the dance floor but that was it.

Now we move to this past Saturday night. There were ladies everywhere. Don't know what was special about this night but there were countless more an usual. I approached 2 that I found attractive and seemed cool, only to find out they were with their boyfriends. No biggie, brushed it off (rejection used to always haunt me). After observing, everyone else was in a group and I figured the night was over as far as chances are concerned. Music was blaring, and I figured well, I might as well enjoy myself while I'm here. I began to dance to the music, by myself. Now whenever I had danced before it wasn't much. It was fun but I always felt awkward and self conscious. Well, this past Saturday night I decided, I don't give a fuck. I came to the realization that I am here to have a good time and if anyone else stares, laughs at my horrible moves, whatever - that's their deal. I started going at it, moved onto the middle of the dance floor. After the first song or two, I began to notice I was drawing attention to myself. Soon enough, after another minute or so, everyone on the floor had noticed me and started dancing with me. The ladies were all over me. I had never "grinded" until that point, was interesting to say the least. Guys were cheering me on, it was insane. The DJ knew me and I got a couple shout outs over the speaker system which fueled the whole situation. Did I mention I can't dance at all? I was just jamming to the music. Now picture this fat guy that is sweating his ass off, out of breath, having a blast. I can honestly say it was the best time of my life.

Out of this experience, before leaving the club, I received 3 numbers from extremely attractive girls who I never would have dreamed of approaching to begin with - who wanted to go out sometime to grab a drink or hang out. I was invited to 4 different after parties (was only able to attend 2 unfortunately). At the first party I was able to obtain 2 more numbers. I didn't use any approach methods - just had a good time dancing to the music with people and I was the one being approached. At the second after party, I had my first kiss with a girl. Yes, cheesy but I had never kissed anyone before. She was an 8 - gorgeous brunette. Final count: 5 phone numbers and 1 kiss.

So, after that novel - the moral of the story... What worked for me in the end was not giving a single fuck about anything and just diving right in to do what I enjoyed. That openness and cavalier mentality got me attention that I never imagined. I know this will not help everyone but I hope it at least help those who are in a similar situation I started in (having difficulty getting out there and just "doing"). If you are worried about rejection, understand that it's going to happen, why not get started now and work on your methods. If you are self conscious about doing something that you enjoy - understand that everyone in that venue is there to have a good time. Nobody cares what you do or how you do it. As long as you enjoy yourself and meet your ultimate goals, go for it.

TL;DR - Fat guy here, initially very awkward and self conscious, decided to go for broke and ended up getting numbers and a kiss without even trying and having a good time.

Edit - Response to All: I did not expect anywhere close to this kind of response. You have no idea how much I appreciate the input from everyone. Saturday night changed my entire perspective on everything social in nature, not just PUA. I had been told a couple of times prior to by people that noticed me sheepishly hanging out in the corner or at the end of the bar doing nothing but standing there with my drink and ever so slightly getting my groove on to the awesome music - "Get out there and have fun, that's what we're all here for". I listened but it never actually clicked because I was stubborn. It has given me a level of confidence I don't think I would have had for months if none of this happened. I have received responses from 3 of the 5 females whom gave me their numbers. I met one today for coffee, nothing more than getting to know one another - was a good time. Have an outing planned with the second later this week and the final wants to meet up for dinner with her group of friends this coming Saturday night prior to attending the same club. I have transformed from a socially awkward guy who cringed at the thought of being rejected and too scared to make a move to I don't even know what... All I know is, it's awesome and the feeling is absolutely incredible.

I hope this was inspiring and helpful to those who had a similar situation. http://i.imgur.com/TALVv.gif
