or: Stop Faking It Till You Make It!

Okay, so you're frustrated that you can't pick up girls because you're not confident enough. But here's the thing: You don't have to be confident to talk to girls.

Just walk up to one and say, "Hi. I suck shit at talking to girls, but I just came over here to talk to you anyway." What's the worst that can possibly happen? Do you really think she's gonna punch you in the face and tell you to stop trying? Of course not!

Girls love it when you're honest with them. They don't care if you've got no game. They don't care if you don't have a clever opener, don't know any routines, don't know what a shit test is, can't dance, can't defuse their grenade friend, don't have a wing man, etc etc etc. You don't need any of that stuff.

Here's the thing: there's a voice in your head (called your ego) that's always telling you you can't pick up girls. Every tip and technique and theory you read is your attempt to convince your ego that you can. But your ego is a bottomless pit of self-doubt and you will never absorb enough theory or learn enough techniques to shut him up. But you don't have to shut him up. All you have to do is recognize him for what he is and stop listening to him.

So get out of your own way. Stop thinking you need great game to talk to girls. You don't. All you need is honesty and a willingness to stop trying to fake it. Your "game" will improve instantly once you do.
