I have rejection anxiety, and also anxiety about disappointing the other person, as if there is some weird cosmic energy out there that I shouldn't "waste." It's perfectionism and because of it I haven't opened a girl or really left my house much.. more than a few times.
I have success from online dating, but I want a lot more social success. A lot more. A tremendous amount more. At least for now... Let's call it the social success plan of 2013
Now that I've properly humbled myself, and shown my disgusting perfectionism, even spiritualism, I can move on to actually doing this.
Who am I going to open first? And what am I going to say?
Because of the whole "I don't want to disappoint them" thing, I have to make sure that even if I fail in my mid game, that they still have a decent opinion of me more often than not, because of my initial game.
Now I really have no idea how to make the first time less awkward, except for maybe waiting until I sort of naturally accidentally open a girl. Ironically Michael Jackson's Beat It song is saying over and over "Don't think twice" at this very moment, lmao... I suppose that is applicable.
Actually here's an easy way to do it. I dress myself up till I look great, and I open up a girl that is a point lower than me. Problem solved.
Damn, writing this down was a great idea. I'm glad these forums are here.
