TLDR; She deserves to know you like her.

​

I have approached in many ways. Whilst I always favour a straight approach (Imagine a straight line between you and the girl and walk it), I have done it every which-way. I've skateboarded through university campuses to catch a girl I've seen walking by. I've commando-crawled up grass hills through freshman parties. I've even chased girls down the street barefoot because I didn't have time to put my shoes on. And I've got laid each of those times. You think I'd write field reports where I don't get it in?

When I approach, I still get scared. Not always - sometimes I feel nothing. But every now and again I'll feel the cold rush of terror creep in when I'm about to approach. I find it amusing now, but (to be completely honest) it does fuck with my game A LOT since it's so strong physiologically even if I can push through it. I ask myself: "O.S...why are you getting scared" and I tell myself the same thing every time.

Because you don't respect her enough.

If you respected her, you'd be honest with her. You would grant her the knowledge that you admire her. You would provide her with options. You'd validate her beauty and maybe then her personality. Hell, you might even give her a story to brag about to her friends and family - the stranger who liked her. Even better, I've actually got aspirations to create and cultivate an amazing family.

​

Now, my Mum didn't raise a misogynist. So I'll be damned if I'm going to go around disrespecting women because I'm too shy to say hello.

So get out there and #respectwomen.

BONUS: What is the etymology of the word respect? "To look back at"
