I've been on here for a couple of months now but after reading various books, posts, journals and articles I have decided my initial introduction did not sum me up properly. Now before I continue I don't normally take myself so seriously, I am just having a mini epiphany.
Now back to the game face:
It is fairly common knowledge that in the u.k. and Ireland there is a highly alcohol dependent culture, this could explain why these countries top cardiovascular and suicide rate ratios. I obviously have been drawn to this culture along with many of my peers, but why is it that we started consuming copious amounts of alcohol
1. For the craic! i.e. to let go, reduce cares and have a good time
2. Social lubricant: so that we can approach, talk to and bond with people we otherwise may not (because of differing lifestyles or pent up social fears)
I know I am not speaking for all, but my motivation for drinking mainly stems from point 2 in relation to HB's.
I am not embarrassed to say that; recently I have become frustrated by my sexual dependence on alcohol, by that I mean without alcohol my sex life would be at a minimum. Fair enough I had sex before I started drinking but as I have grown I have become more dependent on the sweet stuff to 'chat up' women especially the hb8,9 and 10's. Without the stuff in me I feel like I haven't got a clue what to do. Furthermore
not all HB's go to pub's and clubs! Hence my wanting to improve on the sarging.
Now don't get me wrong I am comfortable in the company of women, I just feel like a tool approaching women when sober.
So my first main aim will be to cure this approach anxiety and any other social phobias I have built up. . .
Let the journey begin
