Hi everyone, I'm a college student (senior) in Baltimore, age 21, and basically I'm fed up with social interactions with women being the only area of my life that really bothers me on a daily basis. So here I am.. I don't remember where I first heard about the community, but it was a while ago, probably around the time "The Game" was first published. My past with pick-up is really short, so here it is in full: In high school, my two best friends and I would go out to the mall and ask people for directions/the time in order to get over approach anxiety--we never attempted to escalate though, and always ejected ourselves when the conversation's pretext ran dry. My freshman year in college, I did a few school projects that involved getting the opinions of strangers. Even though I wasn't consciously trying to game anyone, I actually number-closed I think.. five or six sets of moderately attractive girls--completely by accident. Last year, I went with my friend up to NYC to try a sort-of more obvious newbie mission: to get rejected as many times as possible in one day. By the time we really got going though, we were so high-energy and confident that we failed at getting rejected, and instead ate lunch with complete strangers, and took about twenty photos with random chicks in times square. So here's where I'm at now: I've had a few girlfriends, and my social skills/circle are probably above average. My mid-game is actually really good--I can be very funny, generate good conversation with just about anyone, and even do basic kino--but I get absolutely paralyzed on either side of it...Unless I'm with a good friend I can't even say "hi" to strangers, and I can't bring myself to k-close or more, even with girls who are quite obviously attracted to me. To wrap up, my passions are neuroscience and philosophy (which I'm majoring in), and I hope to go to med school and become a neurosurgeon after college. I'm also a leader in a really great mentoring program for high school kids that are basically on the fast road to prison during their freshman year, and this has consumed my life probably even more than academics the last two years. If I could get over my approach anxiety and learn to escalate once I'm hooked in set, I'd be quite happy with my game, and my life. That's what I aim to accomplish, asap. Sorry if that was tl;dr |
