Hello all, yes, as you can obviously see, this is is an introduction thread. So let me tell you a bit about myself!

My name is Mark, and I'm from Sydney, Australia. great place Like many other teenage boys here, I am at that stage of being a 16-year old virgin and yes, although I'm certainly not alone it doesn't feel like it, I AM THE WORST WITH WOMEN, EVER. Like never had a kiss Which is normal, but for me it seems like I actually never will, unless I come out of my current rut i'm in. So let me explain.

At school or out in public, I am an incredibly shy and anti-social individual. This is not the case online with gaming friends or at Army Cadets (youth organization) there I am well liked, confident and my real self. My classmates already have an opinion of being a weirdo, creep etc and it is very hard to change that. I find it hard not to conform to their expectations in these normal situations, I just feel uncomfortable/dirty for no reason. It's hard to remedy this by hanging out more out of school hours, due to attending a sports high school where I don't actually play sport it means I lack common interests points and these people live far away Going out has pretty much never happened for me, advice needed! Fitness and appearance are also worries of mine. Sorry, you must be bored by now!

When it comes to women, I am the worst one-itis, sissy, ever. My attraction to a girl will turn into obsession, leading to me humiliating myself by asking her out with a method even I don't expect to work, due to an inner belief deep down that I won't be able to manage a relationship, thus sabotaging myself. I will be then be rejected and this process will repeat itself with a new girl, I just can't be cool or casual like everyone else I desperately need to learn how to act around sets, targets, and people in general...

Fortunately, my awesome New Zealander friend recommended an e-book and this forum to me a few days ago, and I've been hooked ever since! I admire all the tactics and strategy this community uses not only to pick up women, but improve themselves in all aspects of life, socially and personally. This is want to learn, it is not only sex on my mind (although that would be nice)

I am , like many others here, the exact opposite of a natural AMOG, and need a little help, I'm here to seek opinion all sorts of things taught here, I will most likely studiously listen and tell you all how it goes once I bring my self-confidence up. I crave your advice, criticism and support, and am glad to have discovered such a unique group of people. Thank you for reading this strangers!

(And yes, this thread contains quite a lot of personal information you could use to track me down, I'd rather you didn't.)
