I've only ever had one female friend in my life, I'm 18 and a freshman in college, I can't figure out how my friends get so friendly and touchy with women, and how women seem to get excited when my friends come around, yet I can never get that same enthusiasm.

I can't ever get conversations past "hi" with the women I see, and this is crippling me because I can't try any of this PUA stuff if I can't keep a woman around long enough to try
