Success with girls (specially if they are very good looking) is a numbers game.
Thanks for all the good advice, its been an intense week, trying out new methods and learning so much. I guess its like using a muscle that you have not used for a while, the urge is to try do too much too soon. I am feeling alot more confident now and positive for the future. I can see that the odds are heavily against me suceeding on this particular occasion but the key is to keeping trying, to keep getting up again after been knocked down. This is what I've been avoiding in the past, I've had a fear of rejection. It feels weird as I don't think today went particularly well in relation to the girl I am interested in, its not just me being negative which I end to get sometimes but I just felt things weren't right. Sorry its hard to describe but its just a sort of gut instinct. I'm not backing out at all, I'm still going to give it my best shot, but it was probably a realisation that this may not work out. And I felt fine about it. In the past I've worried that 'this might be the one' and I'd become anxious not to mess things up in case I'd never have another opportunity. I've come round to the view that if she doesn't like me its no big deal, I'll just keep on looking for someone who does like me.
Lobo, thanks once again, I was just going back over all the advice you have provided me with. Its great stuff, you have a great pool of wisdom. What's your story?
