im new to the pua stuff but i have always been really good at approach open and small talk, but now that i have been using some of the tech you guys have provided girls are closing me, asking me to take their numbers, and then texting me minutes after i leave their sides telling me how it was wonderful to meet me. I have been invited back to a few girls houses recently as well... but to be honest these girls were like fives and sixes, so i guess my standards have gone through the roof because i just didn't want them.

Im a good looking guy, probably a 7 or 8, i dress well, but i could probably use some flair, and getting very good at opening groups and recognizing ioi's, dealing with amogs and such but, when i see a 10 i can barely get the nerve to approach, i know they can sense that i put them on this pedestal and i am dropping value. I guess what im asking is what steps can i take to relax and genuinely not care if i get rejected by a ten?, im fine with average girls and even really cute girls but the really hot ones i get all flushed about. Im just recently out of a two year relationship and i don't want a girlfriend so i shouldn't care what these women think about me even if they are super hot!

One more question, sometimes i run out of stuff to talk about, and i just excuse myself and walk away, usually i still catch them looking at me later in the night but its like, if i can't figure out something to talk about then i feel like they were not putting in enough effort and i get bored with girls if their energy levels are to low. Is that weird? you think i should start push/pulling if the convo gets stagnant?

I don't know if any mpua's read these posts but thanks for so many tips on dealing with social anxieties. also thanks for helping me learn that women shouldn't be the ones qualifying your value, that's one of the best tips i think anyone can learn as a pua.
