I don't know if I should just have on running thread or a new thread for each day but oh well.

Day 2: Trying to improve on from day 1, open more than just one chick a night lol

FR:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Found a new club to go to (usually one far away like I always do).

Nerves got to me a little as I drove a little before I parked (less this time than last time).

Got in, wasn't packed but there was only one seat open in the bar. There was a guy next to me(bit on the beta side), but he looked like he was alone. Good I thought, he could be a buddy while I'm here.

There was a mechanical bull, I asked him if there were contests every night, he didn't respond, great I thought I can't even get this guy to react.

Time passed at the bar, we watched some idiot get on the mechanical bull, he look at me and laughed. I tried asking him the same question as last time, and this time he responded, we had a short conversation about him waiting for some friends, and maybe going to a strip club after.

I got up close to watch the bull rides. Felt uptight like I do in social situations, wish I could be yelling like everyone else that was watching without thinking about.

I walked around a bit, till I saw a girl (party girl) who I could tell from her body language was more than receptive to me. We held a conversation, I would run out of things to talk about, she would turn back to her friends, I would think of something else to talk about and sure enough she turned right back around to face me.

I went to a bartender to get a re-fill. She was a hot 8. I have to talk to her I thought.

So I asked, "Any other good places to go around here to drink on a Sunday?"
She seemed excited that I was starting a conversation with her. We talked for a bit, and it ended but not in an awkward way.

I stood by myself again just looking at the crowd. A group of some hotties were walking around and stopped next to me. "Ok" I thought, "say something say something" I thought I could say "You guys look lost" but I was afraid of coming in all awkward and stuff. Before I knew it they were gone.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

That was day 2, I learned to read people's body language more before opening.

My day didn't end there. I think I only stay in a place for about 1 to 1 1/2 hour before the awkwardness/anxiety builds up so much I can't even function. So I leave around then.

I went to a strip club after the bar, which in hindsight is a bad idea. I could say something beta or stupid and the stripper is going to give me positive re-enforcement.

I also had a beer at the bar, cause I was too embarrassed to just get water at the bar. No more. I hate drinking, even if its just one.

Hi

Im pretty new so i dont really have any advice but i feel like you are about as skilled as i am! I feel a little better knowing someone else has the same kind of experiences i have and even though progress feels slow (for me anyways) from what i hear it will eventually get better! keep doin what your doin

Well...that message felt a little like a bit of a put down

Haha, but thats okay, thanks for the support!

I didn't go out yesterday, well cause I wussied out but not going to do that from now on

Haha sorry i didnt mean to i was just sayin its nice to see im not the only 1! i just posted a field report look at that! it took me an hour to be able to do

I have gone out multiple times tellin myself im going to talk to anyone and i never even do that so i know how u feel about wussin out. I have decided not to do that as well so let the good times roll... and the scary times
