First day back in college, tried to approach an HB8 that I've talked to before in her group of friends in a lounge. She's 19 I think, and she always looks at me, usually smiles. Why my body locks up I don't know, in a bar I can do it no problem after a beer.

any quick suggestions on how to overcome the urge to avoid the situation... basically I approach and my body refuses to sit down to the side with her group of friends

after she left I managed to approach another girl from India, really cute, and really nervous or something, maybe language barrier. So it wasn't a complete failure I guess

If you can't see to approach women, perhaps you need glasses?

But seriously, if she's looking at you and smiling, what the hell are you worried about? Cold approaches are the ones to worry about, not warm ones when she's been eyeing you up and is probably already interested!

sorry, had 1.5 hrs of sleep last night and it reflects everywhere :/ I'm just sick of wasting time seeing her around school and not approaching her, I guess beauty is still intimidating. Which is strange, nothing really intimidates me in this world

makes me mad

Beauty may be intimidating, but if she's checking you out that's your cue to approach dude! I'd love to be checked out by a hot girl, I'd jump at such an opportunity - do it for my sake.

tbh it was only one of a few today but my game was horrible, again with no sleep and even my friends said I was acting goofy. But I have only been able to approach a few of them... and when I do, unsure of where to take the conversation

sexual escalation isn't really my forte

but if there are guys in this school taking girls home 1 every 3 days, they must be hella good at sexual escalation... do they just ask them what they're doing after school, or what?
