I have a minor disability where I have a limp and a slight build on my right shoe that I was always self conscious of nearly my entire life but not so much in recent years and im 19. This killed my entire life scially in High School because I was so self-conscious I went into a deep depression and refused to let anything get me out.

But now that im a little bit older and breaking out of that and have been studying PUA for a while and have even had a few success stories because of it, but it's always been on the back of my mind when I approach a woman or walk with a woman with my limp that I still cant shake. This isnt like having an embarassing zit, or something like that but I can physically notice it every moment that im trying to do a PU and I still cant help being aware of it in the back of my mind.

It's hard to ask for advice or anything like that in this situation since most of you dont have this problem but does anyone have any stories of guys like this that 'beat the odds' or any ladies out there that frequent these stories if they could give their advice on how they feel about it.

I have a new confidence I've never had my whole life but I cant help but feel at a disadvantage when I have such a painfully obvious disadvantage and Im changing the way that I think about having this condition. Having this, I feel that it's sort of like a filter for women in my life. The women that wont look past my condition and get to know me will stay away from me and the quality women that look past this and get to know me will come in so having this will repel the lesser-quality women from my life. Thats what I believe anyway, if anyone has words of wisdom or any advice im all ears.

I've seen threads with pua's who have disabilities - some severe and have been very successful. I'm sure someone will give you a few links to them.

I would use the disability to my advantage. Conjure up a wonderfully heroic story which resulted in you getting a limp! If you want, make up a funny story about it instead, just so that she feels comfortable with it - just don't bring it up all the time because she might think you're trying to get her to feel sorry for you.
