Most of the girls in the city where I live have English as their second language.

Although it doesn't bother me most of the time, I sometimes feel like it limits me to some extent.

I just want to know if there is any way I can get past this or use it to my advantage?

Damned,

Use this as an opportunity to work on your nonverbal game. Look to make whatever improvements you can on your body language, facial expressions, eye contact, voice tonality, and even kino. Think of it, even in a case where the girl speaks virtually no English, as a challenge to see how far you can take things without the usual verbal crutch.

Another thing I would recommend, if you feel you're encountering a shortage of women who speak passable English, is to find a wing who speaks the local language. Once when I was in Switzerland, I found myself in a small, rural town where English was scarce. But I was traveling with someone who spoke both languages. We went for a drink at the town's pub, and there was a beautiful girl there, and my wing helped with translation in certain spots and lent me an air of familiarity. I focused on my body language, tone of voice, eye contact, and, of course, kino. After a little while, my wing made himself scarce, and by then the language gap between this girl and me didn't matter.

I know what you mean. It is difficult at first. But its been said. Practice non verbal game.

I live in a place where people speak bad english at best. My other PUA skills have gone up tremendously. People turn around on the street, I get approach invitations all the time. (No plastic surgery.) When I do come across a girl I can communicate with it is a blast! Let your non verbal skills grow, they are the important ones anyway.

I do speak both languages, so I alternate between the two. I just feel more comfortable in English.

But thank you. I'll definitely try to work on my non-verbal game then.

Is there anything you would recommend?

Im in exactly that situation, speak the language but feel better in english...

I would recommend working your inner game. Take the opportunity to reinvent yourself. Identify who you wanna be and realize that there is nothing that stops you from being him (or her ;)).

Get some new clothes, try out new hairdoes. Try improving your bodylanguage. Straighten your back. Get rid of all the things in your mind that holds you back. Practice smiling, it does not matter if you look like an idiot to most people some will appreciate it!

You are the main character in the film about your life. Take your place at the top, you are the star.

It's actually quite interesting that you mention this now since I'm already in the process of doing this and have been getting great responses.

The thing about smiling in particular is golden!

I've also realized that it doesn't matter what language they speak, they'll usually switch over to English for me 8)

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.
