Ok, so I registered a while ago thanks to a friend who introduced me to the existence of such a community. Anyway, I read a few things, browsed the forums and eventually gave up. I haven't been on this site in months.

So today I went to a holiday mixer at a local bar. Very nice, upper class style. It was a cocktail party really. Anyway, the women there were smoking hot. I mean HB8-10s just about all the way around. Hell even the older women looked like MILFs. Normally that is not such a big deal. I see hot women all the time and of course do nothing because I am an AFC. But a moderately drunk associate of mine all of a sudden asked me, "Hey, you haven't met any hot babes (She herself was pretty hot) have you? Shocked by the question I simply answered, "nope".

Then all of a sudden she grabs one of her friends who was at least a HB10.5 and introduces me. She offers her hand as a polite gesture as we exchange names. Then almost immediately and awkwardly begins to talk to someone else.

I simply didn't know what to do. That is when it hit me that I needed to start my training so that something like this doesn't happen all the time anymore.

Thing is, I have tried a few things but I suffer from extreme shyness. I have done this on my own and it doesn't seem to work because I simply wimp out. I am thinking about finding someone to hang out with in my area to give each other support.

What do you think I should do?

Claymore! u aint that bad off...

Is this you?: Even if I wasn't shy, i still don't know what to say

ur 2 major problems seem to be these:
1-conversation skills
2-confidence / self-esteem


Build urself a social network, meet plenty of people: Guys, Girls, Shemales & Transvestites if u want to! U seem not to be used to being around plenty of people, so hanging around & meeting a lot of people could help u a mighty lot by building conversation skills.
Also, being around Alpha Males, u will natually be influenced by their confidence. Thus, hanging around them will naturally make u a more confident individual and girls will notice, become interested and attracted. Now that you'll have confidence (and attraction), you'll be able to apply ur conversation skills u been workin' on! 1-2 step and ur back in the game.

ckeck up what othas got to say, maybe they can pinpoint ur problems better than me (it's 3:30 in the morning here)
