Listen boys, it's going to be rough for a while. It'll hurt and embarras you and you will want to give up

It's different for everybody. If the reward is not worth all the effort and pain, sometimes it's better to just go enjoy other things in life, use that energy and drive to make yourself something better. Build your own kingdom. Sometimes you can dabble in it, and test the water here and there. Keep it light. But if it's totally bringing you down and you're putting huge effort and time into the pursuit, it might be best to take a long break. Some guys have stronger emotions too, it's rough feeling stabbed every time. It gets to the point it's just not healthy to keep doing it. You can only take so much. Being more casual about pursuing or keeping relationship stuff on the back burner can help tremendously though. But it's up to each person how much 'abuse' they can take. If you want to keep plowing ahead and think you can take it, know you'll make some progress and learn more as you go, by all means do so. But always know your limits, and take breaks if needed. Or you might end up a broken wreck.

Your comparison has encouraged me to rewatch 127 hours

Gotta desensitize yourself to fears of rejection.

Do you get a lot of rude rejections? The few times I do approach I get totally destroyed

the one thing I find about this pickup thing is it requires a ton of patience more than any other skill someone is trying to learn.

I've been going out day-gaming and night-gaming and some days at the mall I won't even do one approach due to not finding a chick I find attractive enough after driving to the mall for half an hour. Same at the club.

Then I will have some days and nights where I approach a ton and get to practice my skills and learn what I need to work on. But the downtime in between is probably where patience requires the most because say like last weekend, my night at the club was an absolute bust. I missed out on two women I should have approached but it's been a while since I went out gaming before so It may have been a bit of anxiety that prevented me but regardless, now I gotta wait an entire week to go out again.

I'm itching to get back out to the club again but I gotta wait till next Saturday lol.

I've been single for 10 years, been without sex for 3, and in a year I've gone on 2 dates, they were about the same time but since then, about a year now, nothing.

It's not about giving up, its about not wasting the time. It's like waiting for christ to return.

OP, you're a legend. Rock on and never stop being aweseome

If you really want to get results you need to aim higher. Stop trying to just entertain her, stop trying to just get her number, your goal is to get her in that moment. When she’s on her way home she needs to think of your interaction like it’s the meet cute moment in a romantic comedy so you need to carpe diem. Aim for this kiss and your whole approach to game will change more radically from that than anything you’ll read on this sub, doesn’t mean that you’ll get the kiss but it means that you’ll be failing in the right direction. If you’re still aiming for a nice moment or the phone number, this journey will be a lot longer and more excruciating that you even realise, because after you consistently get numbers you’ll have to deal with flakes and if you think getting rejections is bad wait till you get 20 flakes in a row, it’s hell trust me I’ve been there. Practice only makes perfect when you’re practicing the right things.

Everything you said is cool but it’s all the way you look at it, you see it like it’s this BIG HONORABLE mission, while others see it as another day in the office…perhaps you don’t have to suffer through anything, maybe you don’t even have to use the word “rejection” ever again cause really , it doesn’t exist….A different view could change the way you go about this shit, unless you like going about it the way you do, then do you .
