I've joined this subreddit roughly 3 months ago. After experiencing some really bad events with 3 girls in a row, my mentality was at it's lowest. However after joining here and reading some books I started to gain confidence and said "fuck it". I did what I wanted in my high school and ignored all the rumors that spread though the 3 girls.

I did wacky things with my swim team like wearing a speedo over pants to school. Skateboarding in the middle of the hallway. My senior year in high school ahs genuinely been enjoyable for the first time.

I saw this girl in my math class and started talking to her. My mindset of "would she be a good fit for me" allowed me to be who I truly am when talking to her. I still had anxiety of taking the next step of asking her out and today I did it. I told her on snap that I though she was cute and wanted to meet up during spring break. The 18 minutes it took for her to answer has to be the most stressful 18 minutes of my life. When she replied with a smile and a yes it felt so good. SOOO GOOD.

Thank you so much everyone

If there is any advice for dates or what I should talk about during it, please let me know. I welcome and and all advice!
