I used to suck at talking to people, even outside trying to date. Then I got into Second Life, cause I thought if I suck at having any romance, I can at least fake it on there.

Ended up, most of the people on there dislike someone who can't playact at being romantic. So, I had friends I made train me at roleplay, and being attractive with how I talk. Turns out that works wonders in real life.

You don't have to be gorgeous, or jaw dropping hot to get anyone, I ended up finding out being charismatic, and sweet works just as well, especially if you compliment someone for having great style, or give em a quick smile, then look away. At least, it worked for me to be more social and listening to others more than talking.
