So yes, some of you may agree that it is a bit too young to be reading PUA in Highschool...only a sophmore!? What can I say. Last year and up until now, I've faced some serious frustration. What frustration you ask? Well, I've never had a girlfriend! I try to be social, outgoing, I'm on the Football team and beginning to seriously workout and try to get in shape. However, after reading PUA I felt a bit overconfident...and yes...sometimes come off as an asshole. However, I think coming off as an asshole sometimes is better than being the pudgey nice guy. However, I don't know what to do or where to start. Only one girl has been attracted to be in Highschool so far. Under all this fake confidence i'm a lost guy. How do I begin to attract girls? How do I TALK to girls? How do I approach girls I don't know, basically. And the worst thing of it all...I've liked this girl since last year(who I was clearly in the friendzone with). However, because of certain circumstances, being in a relationship with her would be awkward and she has never shown any signs of attractiveness to me. I tried to isolate her off...only replying to her text messages and calls not initiating on my own...and sometimes acting like an asshole. Now I feel like all of that has just backfired and feeling lost about our friendship...forget a relationship.
SO. After this long wall of text. Any words of advice?

Don't let anybody know but I'm in 9th grade I'm still fairly new to this and can't give too much advice for I don't know that much. But first things first, nobody likes and asshole, people like a confident and masculine man. They deal with the asshole on the side. You just need to talk to girls more, I might suggest some reading too. If you know how to download torrents I would suggest finding some PUA books that interest you. But that is illegal so take the risk if you want. I'm sure plenty of people on this forum would send you books through email. I would suggest doing the Newbie Mission, you just go somewhere heavily populated with women of all different looks. Then you smile, make eye contact, and wave/say hi to everyone women you pass. Not just the attractive ones but all of them. Gunwitch has a very interesting theory about attraction, you must be a little attractive by doing things like exercising, eating healthy, being in style, and having a good haircut. But he also gives you ways to arouse a woman by being masculine and and dominating her by being a manly man. But the Newbie Mission has good feedback and should cancel out you approach anxiety. I still have not mustered up the courage to do it because I'm a little bitch, but I have made little progress from joining this community and reading books. But the most experience you can get is from actually doing it yourself. Good luck.

10th grade was when i started learning this PUA stuff too, one thing i can say is not all of these rules about seduction apply to the classroom(plus people gossip a lot in HS which can make it tough to work). its generally made for anywhere else but school, but women are women anywhere so some things will work(take what you can from this)

but the answer to most of your ?'s:

How do I begin to attract girls?
How do I TALK to girls?
How do I approach girls I don't know?

^^all comes from practice, its like riding a bike, you can read up all day and nite about how to do it, but actually doing it is another story. soome guide lines that might help are:

change your style a little, be original and set yourself apart from the other guys in your grade

you have to talk to girls like a man(hard to really explain but) keep a clear male/female interaction evident

most girls i know say they like a guy to approach calm, and genuine, no pick up lines just a, "hey how are you? im _____"
hope it helps
