SUMMER BREAK MOMENTUM UPDATE:

Fuarrkk.. Idk... fuarrkk I need help brahs.

I'm still struggling with AA. It's a bitch. I'm not necessarily afraid of rejection, but I"m afraid of everyone watching me get rejected. So I realized this and told myself that I needed to do exactly that to overcome it. I started doing it and it was working. I felt AA going away and I could open anyone up. But I was up 3 to 0 or something, I was with my boy, and I had to wait for him to open too. I'm not just going to leave him behind. And his AA was bad... we were walking laps around the mall and he still didn't approach anyone. I'm like "c'mon bro". Then he started getting defensive at me, SMH. And when he did it (approach) it was a boring approach. Then after all that waiting my AA came back and we just kinda went home.

I saw a lot of cute girls I wanted to talk to, but I was straight bitch mode.

Mehhh it was one of those days.

My question to you experience guys out there, it's clear my biggest problem is people watching me get rejected. Would it be okay if I purposely went out to the mall or something and got rejected for the first x number of sets... Just until my AA went away?

I will say that overall, my confidence is higher than before I started this Summer Break Momentum thing. I can actually say something to strangers on the street. Before I wouldn't even do that b/c I was an extremely shy guy when it comes to girls IDK. I only knew girls from mutual friends and social circles... not through cold approaches.

God dammit! Fuck AA. Piece of shit.

AA is a bitch. It goes away through practice and being rejected, but if you get rusty and sit out for too long, it comes back. There is a good tip for dealing with it. "3 second rule". You decide on an approach 3 seconds after seeing a girl. If you decide to do it, you force yourself to go through with it. Only having 3 seconds to decide puts pressure on you to make up your mind and not overthink it. I think, the best way to get over AA is trial by fire. Go direct and open the way we talked about earlier. You're going to have to feel the burn of rejection before you get numb to it.

Ahh fuck you're right. I need to seriously implement the 3 second rule cause I 2nd guess myself 10000x times. It's ridiculous.

On top of the 3s rule, maybe something between me and my boy. "If you don't approach that girl you have to give me a dollar" and we'll go back and forth. Something like that... IDK.

I will try the 3 second rule and if that fails I'm definitely doing the 1 dollar game.

Thanks for the advice and wish me luck brah!

Compensating...
OK, maybe there is something to be learned, but I consider WWE drama for men. Just dont over do it. LOL!

Approaches can lead you places man, don't make excuses like "my friend has to say something first, I won't leave him behind!" and whatnot. An excuse can be found for any approach.

Crazy shit happened. Random shit like you wouldn't believe.

Got an invitation for a political meeting with a free stay in a hotel ---> meeting a guy there, exchanging contacts ---> going on holiday together ---> once there I opened up to a girl on a terrace in Slovenia ---> disco in Brussels ---> beautiful girl ---> professor in South-Europe ---> catholic priest in Amsterdam ---> giving lectures for Opus Dei ---> getting a book.

I'm curious about the 3 second rule and a possibility of backfiring.

If you make say 5 approaches, and get rejected the other women in the area will pick up on your body language when leaving the rejection. Would this not lower your value?

I'm all for not delaying the approach, but if you are spamming a club with approaches and have a run of bad luck your body language will show it.

^^ You just need to be cool and not outcome dependent. You're really not that important. You make the assumption that you approach one girl, then all five girls in that area are going to be staring at your interaction. People around you don't give a shit, same applies to day game.

Exactly - nobody gives a shit.

Not even Badr Hari when a Russian fighter knocked him down - he just sat on his knees waiting for the referee to count him out.
