6. Actually, the shy angle can really work |
|
It's a balancing act. Being flirtatious one minute, then shy the next. The girl has to be in to you though, but it can work.

It's not that I am not good with girls being friendly, I am great at that, but "Hey "her name" here I think you're a nice and attractive girl, you wanna go see a movie or something"

to just keep it to 'lets do something' to first warm her up to the idea, then pitch the idea for a movie, or a hot love-fest in your bedroom. :D

21. I used to be in that boat John |
|
and in many ways I still am. I have social anxiety disorder, and I have to really force myself to approach attractive women. But you learn to do it, even when you are shaking in your boots, just like a soldier learns to charge an enemy tank with a molotov cocktail.
It works if you act confident in yourself no matter what, even if you are sucicidally depressed.

I have a lot of trouble approaching strangers, but that is not the worst part for me. I am always afraid i am going to lose my friends and that makes me very paranoid. I take an SSRI and it has helped some.

I have social anxiety disorder. I get nervous like a motherfucker. I have been laid many times and I still get nervous. There is a trick, and you have to work at overcoming your anxiety. But, don't let her see that you are not confident. Act confident in yourself, even if you are sweating bullets. You can even play the shy angle, but if you want to hook up, do not let her see you are anything less than confident in yourself. Girls like shy guys, but not guys who think they are weak. Try it, even though it is hard.

3. I am working way too many hours on a campaign |

to have a social life, including sex.
Besides, I can't seem to fall out of love with my ex-girlfriend. Which makes it kind of hard to motivate myself to go out and meet girls.

42. Not a one night standy kind of gal... |
|
I'm uncomfortable with the whole "dating" process, but I can't just meet someone and be like, hey, we're just going to be f*** buddies either. So I cause my own problem I guess...
Plus I have a kid, which to a lot of guys is similar to having syphilis--maybe that should have been the first reason! I sometimes wonder how I'll actually orchestrate sexual activity, because somehow I don't see it happening at my house!

I figure when the right guy comes a long, it will work out. He's kind of taking his time though.

I'm 26, just got a divorce from my high school sweetheart this past summer...:-( whom I was with since i was 19. I've been out on a few dates, met some nice girls... but no hanky panky yet. LOL... this dating stuff is new to me again! Oh well, I live in the town that is considered the best city in America to be single in, so... we'll see how it goes.
Basically, if I see a girl I like, I ask her out... rejection is not near as bad as the regret of not asking out someone you're attracted to and may never see again... so far, the rejection has been few and far between! hooray! Anyway... yeah... it's been since the summer since I've been horizontal.

scary for sure... Fortunately, we still get along very well (took her to dinner tonight) and you never know, we could be the weird type that get back together even though we're divorced. But... on the bright side, I don't have kids... so, it's more like a 'serious break up'.. I can't imagine doing this with kids.
I am the one that instigated the thing... so maybe I should keep my trap shut. Anyway... life goes on, time heals all.

I'm a girl and I enjoy sex. Growing up the only girl in the house surrounded by four older brothers and a Dad probably made me more "man-like" in my sexual habits though. I'm young and some would say attractive (petite build, good skin, flat tummy, sound mind) Finding lovers is not a problem for me. :pals:
