Man....how big is your school, anyway? My school is 20,000...and if yours is anywhere near that, it'll be pretty hard to be the "weird guy" on campus, unless you do something notorious. I hate to relate this to you, but it's one of the facts of life. YOU REALLY NEED TO TAKE SOME OF THE ADVICE THAT THE PEOPLE IN THE THREADS HAVE GIVEN YOU, and try them out. You will be rejected, not by everybody...but it's not a big deal, really. Rejection is not meant to be anything personal. Why worry about a girl that is not even interested in you?
Another fact of life is this: you will learn by experience. That is the only way, and the best way you will learn. I think you're just afraid, and it's understandable. But untill you take some sort of charge over yourself, your feelings, etc., don't expect anything to happen. Believe me. You need to take some intitative and try. It's trial and error. You'll figure out what works for you. You'll be able to read women. You just have to try it. Reading advice is great...but it's hard to conceptualize it untill you go in the lab (real life). Please, just try it. Make a goal to get 5 women's telephone numbers this week...and go for it, bitch.
***Read This Carefully***
- Practice makes perfect.
- Make small talk with women, for instance (you are in line for food at a dining hall, you see a girl standing beside you), say something like: "Hey, how are you?" <--simple and harmless (if they blow you off because of that alone, they are a beeyotch and don't worry).
- Open doors for girls
- Smile at one that passes by you
- By small and simple means, are great things brought to pass. That's the way it rolls, man. Don't worry about the big scheme of it all, just go with the flow, and take one step at a time. Baby steps, Bob! Baby steps!
My success story: on Friday I was in a dining hall eating by myself. It was realitively dead, not a lot of people there. I was sitting at a table by myself and I saw a woman reading a book, next to my table. I thought she was sort of cute, and so after I finished eating I made my approach. I said: "What are you reading? Is that a good book?" and she told me, and I had her explain a little more about the book. We had a great conversation for about 15 minutes and I got her number and IM name.. Heck, I don't know what will happen, if anything, but it was all good. It's really that simple. Don't fret.
Cripes, if you'll just spare making these YAGTs, I'll become your personal trainer/coach/therapist/whatever. As long as I can get a special title, I will do it. So, instead of making 1000 threads monthly, just PM me.
