Hey Fellas - couldn't think of a cool handle so finally I chose Lothario Blue. I'm here because I'm an AFC. Been so for many years...What I've been doing hasn't been working, so I need to do something different. I'm 39 years old, 5'6", decent physique; highly educated.

Here's is a common problem for me. This afternoon I was in line at my neighborhood Starbucks standing behind this really attractive woman: mid-twenties, blonde, excellent figure, fun-looking. I really wanted to chat her up but instead focused on all the ways it could go wrong. She then noticed I was checking her out. I wondered if I was now officially creepy due to my 3-second rule violation. Like the hundreds of other times this happened, I chickened out. She walked out of the store and out of my life. 4 hours later I'm still playing what-if scenarios in my head.

I've got to get over these hurdles. I hope the Community can come to my aid.

Sincerely,

Lothario Blue

New myself and been reading a few of the intros on here and your 'common problem' below struck a chord with me. Been there many times mate!

Hoping that I will be sat across the table from the hottie soon!

Good old Approach anxiety. I love it and hate it, its like the adrenaline factor to PU!

The only way to conquer this is to approach, approach and approach!

Fuck all the hypnosis bullshit and all that go out, begin talking to women and I guarantee it gets easier with each time. Wash, rinse, repeat

Good luck my friend, get out in field, face youfear approach the HB's and conquer it!

Thanks for the advice! It's spot on. Bring on the pain!!!
