| Alright guys, first time poster here. I'm in need of a little help here and wasn't quite sure where to go. Hope this is the right place.
First a little background... My whole life I've pretty much been a beta. I had tons of gorgeous friends in high school and everyone thought I was really good looking, but I had the nice guy mentality of treating girls right and yada yada, never really hooking up with many girls or getting laid. I got to college, got laid, then started dating one of the first girls I had sex with. We dated about a year and a half and just broke up before this summer. I went abroad, completely changed my mentality with girls (mostly due to the ex being a little clingy and crazy) and hooked up a lot. I'm now a junior in college and after an awesome summer and a good start to the semester, I'm slowly creeping back to beta.
tl;dr... long time beta, broke up with gf and started doing alpha things
The problem: Last week I ran into a girl I had hooked up (not sex, but this girl is gorgeous) while I was dating the girlfriend at the time. We were both drunk and hit it off really well. Got her number. Started texting her a little. Since I had to wait a week until I could go out and drink with her again I asked her to lunch so it wasn't just texting, which again went well. This weekend is where the problems start.
I was planning on meeting with this girl downtown. I ended up getting really hammered, I blacked out and don't remember a damn thing. I woke up with the girl in my bed. Afterwards we talked and she made me seem really embarrassing. I was apparently buying her drinks all night, ignoring my friends to talk to her, repeating myself a lot, and probably acting more excited to see her than I should have. Basically doing dumb beta shit. Of course when I heard all this I paniced, again acting a little more beta than I should have, trying to feel out if she had lost attraction for me from it. We didn't have sex the night before cause I couldn't get it up. My friend who was with us all night said I wasn't nearly that bad, which gives me hope. So I texted her later the next day, surprised to actually get a response. We talked a little but I can't help but feel beta right now, like she has the upper hand, leading me along a leash because I don't know if she's attracted to me anymore.
Here's where I'm at out. I've got a whole nother week before we can drink and I can try to make something happen. Should I let up for a little? I was thinking not text her for a couple days then see if she wants to grab lunch again before the weekend? I know lunch isn't a favorite but I'm not trying to take it to seriously and would like to be able to talk to her over just texting her all the time. Or am I done for? Some tips would be much appreciated, I need to get out of this beta phase quick before I do any more damage.
