Post subject:  Graze in the Game

Hey guys I'm Graze. I read the book the Game and felt my eyes have been open to such a wide degree to the truth I so blatantly missed. I heavily research the topic and am constantly looking for developing theories and concepts to explore. But I don't explore I chicken out and fail miserably. I was avoiding joining the forums because I already talk a good talk and have a strong understanding but my approach anxiety is through the roof and I feel I would just talk theory on here and have no work to show for it. I recently transferred to college as a junior and meeting people is a lot harder then I expected. I feel the game not only will help me with woman but with both sexes in gaining friendship and social acceptance that I long for. However that being said I need to get over it and talk to people and that is why I'm here. Knowing this, I am posting this to hopefully motivate myself and also have your support in getting over my stupid fear. So I am looking forward to taking a confident step in the right direction of my life and would love some support to motivate me to do it. Tomorrow is a weak class load for me and I have a solid time chunk to just approach people in general so I'm hoping to post tomorrow night or Friday morning of my experience, either successful or failures, and use them to make me the better man that I can be.

Post subject:  Day 1

So my first day started off not so great. There was a 3 set of girls in my one class. I approached and opened simple and easy, but I got so excited that I did, that I literally ejected immediately.

After that I had plans to go to out during the day to try, but I kept holding my self back and just disappointed myself. I kept saying I would do some stuff at Cross Country Practice, but when I got there I was barely able to talk to any one, initially. During the run at least I handful of people would make small chit chat but nothing major. Fortunately a guy who ran my pace came up and we started a good conversation.

I was still down because I was epicly failing my mission to talk to and at least approach more girls. So I hung out with some friends I knew back in high school and talked about the game and as most people are when I talk about it they seemed interested and wanted to see it work. We went to get my buddies girlfriend who lived a little away. Its about 8 or 9 at this point.

And then it finally happened. A 2 set step out of the apartment building and my friends say go now! Not to look like a AFC after I have explained how it all worked, I started walking a brisk pace and caught up to them, and using multiple things to not come off creepy, as I pass them I drop the opener. We talked for a short while when I realized I was walking mad far from the car and would have to run back, I simply went with, "It was nice meeting you, I have to get to my friends." It was a light eject but I did it. And of course I get back to the car and 2 more girls walk by, and they say do it again. So this process repeats 3 times total. On the third time I finally get the nerve to say, "Its a big campus and chances are I will never see you again so by chance would I be able to get your number? " There reply was they couldn't because they both have boyfriends. Now weather this is true or not doesnt bother me, I was just super happy that I actually openly asked flat out and the reply wasnt WTF or some over reaction.

I am criticizing everything I did so I can get better at it, but walking and talking is a lot harder then I thought. I think back to the show "The pick up artist" where the guys have to go to an area that people are walking and try to get a conversation going and how hard it was for them, granted they werent masters but as an AFC its nice to know that I was able to go a block or two before I would feel the need to leave.

Please comment or give advice, I am always willing to learn anyway possible.

Welcome to the forum!
I'm new to this whole concept myself so i can't help you with any advice (yet).
But it's still nice to see that you actualy are trying to change your life and are moving on with a small process!

Definitely, I don't need to be a total Player, I just want to be confident with the thought and some experience to know I can be a player. I feel PUA is something that any AFC should honestly at least look at.

Welcome as well :)

It's inspiring to read your post man. I have such terrible anxiety when when it comes to approaching. I'm also new to the forum and like you have been reading a lot over the past year. It seems like you're jumping right into the practical aspect and that's awesome. Keep posting, I'd like to follow progress.

Thanks Waltz. The best Advice I have learned from my experiences is: If you talk about the game with friends who are understanding and curious to see it work, when you go out with them, they become your biggest motivators. I will definitely be posting my progress over the next few months so thanks for the increased motivation! :D
