If I were to pick a representative photo of the general attitude towards picking up women in this sub, it would be the photo of that kid with the giant, bulging vein in his forehead. Guys. Guys. Guys. Do you like women? No seriously, does it make you happy to chat to them?

Now, for a lot of dudes here, the answer is very obviously no. They fucking hate women. Talking to them is regarded as a fucking minefield of gibberish that they need to successfully navigate because their dick still thinks women are ok. And those weirdos will die mad. But for the normal people, what I'm saying here matters. Have fun. Getting to know new people is fun, and exciting, and scary. It's a rollercoaster. Try and relax. Your demeanour matters. It influences everything you do. Chill. You're fine how you are. Sure you're a work in progress, but no art is really finished. Go and meet some interesting people. Listen to what they say. Find out what's important to them and why. It's fascinating. I promise. How you approach scary situations says so much about you.

Have fun.
