Im doing this thread to share my experiences with the community n the forum
ive known about gaming for about a year,

My previous experiences in this field is not great i had problems with approach anxiety and getting nervous ,recentlyfor the best 2 weeks ive been doing 2-3 approaches a day maybe 4 times a week, i feel my anxiety is slowly fading and i feel more confident i think overall ive done less than 30 approaches in my life most of them were indirect conversations just to feel more comfortable.

My challenge is to do 100 approaches from may 20 to june 30 so its around 41 days where i try to ask for the number or show interest im hoping that by the end i would have the ability to get a number and feel more confident about approaching.

my pickups will all be in streets and malls not in bars or clubs

so in my journal im wont go in details but i will summarize each approach and what happened hopefully writing my experinces on forums will push me to do it

one question. why?

i look foward to your reports. I myself am at 9 cold approaches during the day in the last week. I'm not going to say they were fantastic or i got numbers but don't take in more than you can handle.

at the beginning it was a goal for me just to open a girl and say hi to random people walking by. as long as you are making steps you are winning

Hey great idea man! I think I might do this as well. I've just started with approach and opening. And have a lot to get over, a lot of confidence to find and self-esteem to build. I think going to 100 could be a great milestone to reach before moving on to the next area of my game. It will defiantly give us a good grounding in openings.

Best of luck!

Remember the three second rule, I'll try to remember it as well!

hey so i started today i did two approches i didnt close for any one it was just talking:

app 1-i asked a random question and talked for a bit no more than one min then i complimented she smiled and i left

app 2-i approached two girls sitting in the park one of them was friendly and didnt speak english she spoke french and the other was giving me bad looks but she had better english ,i talked with them in english and french since my french was really limited anywyas i asked them their opinion about my clothes since i didnt prepare anything before i approched then i talk for 2 min i shook their hands and left

my comments:

app 1 -closing her could have been possible but i wasnt really attracted to her i should have spent more time and asked for the #

app 2-it was one of my few time i approach a group so doing it was the main goal ,the problem was the language sine my french i kinda limited i couldnt talk more if i could i would have teased or talked more and the bad looks from the other girl made me feel uncomfortable and nervous anyways

my overall preformance:5/10

anyways it still early but i need to up my game fast

ok so i just did one approach today

app 3- i complimented her and she was really shy she looked like in a hurry so i walked with her we were talking and then i ejected i told her i have to go i think i shouldnt have left coz she seemed kinda intersted the only reason i left was because i wasnt sure if i approached this girl before coz one she told me her name and it sounded familiar

comments: im still having AA and i think i should approach when they dont see me coming and i shouldnt care about the people looking at me orr hearing what i say but its hard to do that anyways i should try to force myself to approach more at least 3 approaches per day hopefully tomorrow is better
