I agree practice makes perfect :smile: you will soon become more confident round girls and be able to ask them out :wink:
I know this sounds strange but what about chatting and going out with really close female friends to start with, that your not attracted to but you feel comfortable around? :smile:
i think its kinda cute when guys do that, actually:biggrin:
i'm like this too, i don't feel comfortable around girls, full stop. Bad times!
An ego helps.

*not a good thing though*
why are you suggesting it then?!

Well an ego can give you confidence, false though it may be. Better to just know that women are *humans*, and like good conversation just like anyone else. And never be scared to be who you are, no ****** point trying to suck up.

Pedastalising really, really doesn't help.
yep, my mind is trained that way though.

**** the negativity and force yourself to be confident with your thoughts. THis isnt about girls, its about your own self esteem/confidence. Fix that first. Strength is hard to get, but also difficult to lose once you have it.
i'd love to change it but it's easier said than done (as i'm sure you're aware of) i never notice any improvement. i just don't get why i'm like this.

i just make myself look like a fool infront of ppl im attracted to. or i get really bitchy and harsh
either way its a bad tactic.

It's strange, it's worrying but I act in an antisocial manner in front of girls I'm attracted to. That is exactly what you don't want but it's happening to me. It is preventing me from achieving a lot of happiness in life. Does anyone else feel the same, that is get antisocial in front of the opposite sex that they like?


First off, WAIT! Don't change a thing, shy guys are really really attractive, and makes a change from the usual IN YOUR FACE tactless, over charming, forceful, fake guys...:mad2:

You just need to know how to channel that kinda appeal, you've got a good think going, don't spoil it. If the girls you like don't appreciate that side of you, then keep on steppin' bro:cool:
