I've been lurking around this sub for a month now, reading a lot of things and finding out what works best for me.

Last week I've bought Mark Manson's book Models, and I have to say that advice helped me tonight.

Let me say first, I come from a time where I was too afraid to just talk to ANY girl I didn't know well.

I went out to drink with some friends, approached 3 women this night and the 3rd one was a hit, it clicked and we opened up to eachother. I made myself vulnerable by telling her life expiriences while still flirting with her. Bit by bit she became more comfortable with me and then I tried to kiss her.. She kind of rejected me.

I laughed it off, said her to have a good night and went back to my friends at the café next door.

She knew I was there and you know what? 10 Minutes later she came to that café with her friend, showing her interest in me again, we hit it off and I went for another kiss and this time she kissed back, then she invited me to her house for a afterparty.

What worked for me tonight? Just being myself, not take it too seriously, express myself honestly and even while getting rejected for the first kiss, not showing any neediness towards her.

Keep it up lads
