im kinda tired of being alone u kno? is the a step by step to do list? lol and how exactly would you make sexual tension?
Stumbled upon this because I, too, am on college campus. I'm also a pretty awkward person, in my opinion. But it's cool because I own up to it and just do what I want. I'd say that confidence is most of what is important on college campus, and there are many indirect ways to appear confident.
For one, openers aren't crazy important but I'd suggest doing what the other guy said and just sitting next to a girl and talk about her day. Learn about kino escalation, but if you're in class don't go all ham on kino. Playful shoulder touching is probably your max in that setting.
Two, if a girl ever turns to somebody else and stops paying attention to you, move your attention. Go on with whatever you were doing. Sitting there and waiting for her to redirect her attention to you makes you appear unconfident.
Three, breathe slower. Sounds stupid but proven fact that people that breath slower appear more confident.
And four is most important, make eye contact. This was so hard for me to break my habit of looking away. Girls tend to smile at me more. A lot more. A fun exercise for this is when you're just walking down the sidewalk on campus, hold eye contact with a random dude and when he looks at you, keep staring him down. It's like a game of chicken, but don't let yourself lose. Most guys will look away really quick.
