I keep hearing I'm not a bad looking guy. And although I assume all things told to me are lies, I've seen uglier guys than what I see in the mirror. But regardless, there doesn't seem to be any magical combination of my looks that will result in a woman making the first move towards me. Realizing that I prefer to be in control, I doubt a female that did such a thing would be of any use to me anyway.
The case at hand is I am always 100% paralyzed as far as talking to women. I will spend hours upon hours at a bar or a party and not talk to any woman there, no matter how attracted I am. I come up with all the normal excuses, she's in a pack with her stupid friends and I have no idea how to approach that, she looks like she's here with someone and I don't want to have to beat the shit out of a jealous boyfriend, or she's too fat or whatever, even though I established being attracted to her already.
I suppose if anyone had a method of getting over that first hurdle of just approaching a woman, that would be interesting to me. Getting rejected over and over will always feel like shit, and it's the only way to learn. But if I literally stand there for 3-5 hours in a bar, saying nothing, that gets nothing accomplished.
The last time I met up at a bar with two female friends, I sat at a table with them, trying to find any fucking topic I could get them talking about. Eventually she told me some story about being mad about some guy sneaking up on her the other night and putting his arm around her. After that story, the topics dried up, she and her friend eventually got bored and went walking around. They eventually found that guy she was mad at, and flat out ditched me for him and his friend. Now, the amount of homicidal rage I feel when such a thing happens is neither here nor there. It's safe to say I can almost channel Hitler at that point. But it seems to me she might have been giving me cues to start touching her half way through the conversation, but I didn't and that's why they got bored.
Past this point I'm just going to start trailing off into pointless babbling, so I'll stop. If anyone has experiences that might be of relevance, I would enjoy hearing them. Anything besides "quit being a pussy and DO IT!". Because I know I'm a pussy and that's just not going to matter.

Jack, you're quite messed up.
Let me tell you something, girls very rarely approach you and make the moves. You might get the odd exception but it really isn't efficient for one to rely on that only.
You make it sound you have some unique hinderance for your lack of success. You are simply at the beginner stage of pick up. You have approach anxiety. This is something everybody has and will never get rid of it. But 10,000+ approaches later I have control of my AA instead of it having control over me.
Models - Mark Manson , this is kinda the bible on pick up these days since things have evolved from 10 years ago mystery method style

Read my sig thread and take your life by the balls. I was angry virgin like yourself but I have worked my ass off at this stuff.
I met this 'model' last night. I pretty much take home a girl 9 times out of 10 each night I go out. She didn't burn my bacon though:
These days, women are just not even an issue at the slightest anymore. Gotta put in the reps bro, though
