I've been working on myself a lot and developed a good amount of confidence and have been speaking with strangers and other people a lot more. I feel I am very close to the level where I can do some cold approaching.

I have read a few books and watch many videos, but as I started reading Models, I understood that if I am still needy, or "crazy" that is the type of women I will attract.

I am going to be honest with myself, and admit I have a lot of neediness and insecurities inside still, and I don't want a woman like that because that is what my ex-wife is like.

IE: Constant need for affection and validation

I definitely need to work on myself and become a better, healthier person first.

So, if I can advise anybody of something, be sure you are the type of person you want to attract or else it is going to be a cycle of crazy unwanted relationships.
