Hi all!

I posted a while back about needing a kick up the ass. I've had the kick up the ass administered and I'm finally moving on with my life. I'm getting myself in better health, I'm talking to new people where I can and I'm feeling generally happier.

A sticking point however is building attraction. Flirting has never been my strong point, but one thing I have learnt is that girls seem to flirt with body language and physical touch before they say anything about their attraction. I used this to my advantage at a party the other night, however my morals cock blocked myself, she got very drunk and I was sober. I'm not in this for sex with drunken girls, I'm in this to improve my social skills and my ability to attract the girls I want to date and sleep with sober.

My question is how do you express your attraction and build on it, with someone new you're chatting too?

I find I'm a pretty genuine, down to earth guy and build rapport easily, but my conversations don't seem to go much further than rating their days and discussing our plans.

In the meantime, back to the gym and back to talking to random strangers and checkout clerks in supermarkets/shops/wherever!

Ta!

Edit: Thought I would add, friends have been known to tell me I've got 'blinkers' i.e. I'm oblivious to when girls are interested and also girls usually are pretty unaware I'm interested in them.
