Hello everyone, been a long time lurker here. Despite me reading all the information stuff on this sub, I've failed trying to beat Approach Anxiety.

Now, I'm a pretty social person, I have a strong set of friends at most of the bars I go to. Most of the bouncers and bartenders know me. I'm in pretty good shape and dress well. I can dance a little here and there too, what I'm terrible is making the plunge and going up to a girl. I don't expect girls to come to me (happens once in a while if I get lucky) and I can make a great conversation and hook up with them often.

So, here I am, coming to you guys for help. Although, it's something from within, do you guys know any way I can beat this? Even though I'm fairly confident in different paths of life, my game has been pretty shit lately.

Currently, I'm considering drinking a lot of alcohol and then just going for it today. But I know this is not a long term answer.
