First off i'm a college student so alcohol is quite a common and almost essential part of your night out...

I got very drunk last night and while doing so I happened to get out my phone and start filming myself and my friend. Looking back at it now is quite embarrassing as I can see i'm shouting and probably one of the drunkest guys in the bar. I remember at the time y confidence was sky high and I would approach any women without fear given the chance, however I must have looked bad and i'm sure no girl would be interested in me at that time.

I've realized that if I want to pick up women I can't be that drunk even though a lot of funny things happened. I want to be able to have a good time with my friends and have the confidence to approach women but I always feel pressure to get drunk to feel that confidence you get. Normally i'm not that talkative but when I start drinking I 'open up' a lot.

I've come to the conclusion that 'Drunk Game' doesn't work. When I was talking to women last night I wasn't as sharp as I would be sober in conversation, but if I was sober I wouldn't have the confidence to approach her.

I'm not going to rule out drinking but i'm also not going to get really drunk from now on. I guess what i'm really wondering is what midset/energy I should be in before I go out and start talking to women.

Appreciate all replies,
Thanks.

I think you should do some AA training while sober, so you don't feel the need to be drunk to open girls.
It's good to choose nights to do something specific like, today I'm gonna get drunk and laugh with me friends, tomorrow I'm gonna have fun but gonna stay good enough to get the game going.

As I have learned, the best way to get better in opening and losing the fear of rejection is to go after girls, rejected or victorious you we learn to deal with failure.

Hope I Helped

there isnt anything wrong with drinking before going out.
Its all part of the fun, just like dancing and hitting on girls
but the minute you lose coherent thinking and start blabbing out
diarrhea from your mouth your entire game is ruined unless she's also
drunk.
from experience, never mind how confident I felt I always had better results
approaching sober than drunk.
What i do when i need a boost is go to the W/C for 2 minutes, fix myself up
and as funny as it sounds I think about all the times I hooked up with someone
and how fun it was. Usually this gets me in the mood, maybe it'll help.

The only way to get over it is just go outside your comfort zone whilst sober. Have a few drinks to loosen up to start with if it helps.

Music gets me in the mood. Up beat music that'd you'd find in the music charts. I'm talking about the likes of Flo Rida, David Guetta etc. If you don't like that type of music (I used to hate it) listen to it and learn to love it. Once you do it will put you in a really upbeat mood. Make sure to turn it up loud.
