Approach anxiety. This topic has been beaten to death, by me among others.

You just have to do it bro. There is no other way. It's a long road you have ahead of you, so start walking.

I suggest you don't focus on technique, cause that will trip you up and compound your problem by making you think you have to say the right thing. Just forget about it at least until you become more comfortable being social. Just be normal, outgoing and friendly. Focus on making the initial effort. Be chill, or fake it. Forget about what happens next. I know, this seems impossible, but you have to find some way to get through that and then you will see that it is embarassingly easy.

Girls are my anti-drug.

Next time you see a girl you'd like to talk to, tell yourself this:

"I'm scared, but I'm going over there anyway," and just start walking towards her.

That's how I finally put myself on the road to recovery last January. I didn't know what I'd do when I reached her, I just knew that before I could even worry about doing anything else, I had to get that part of it down.

TD Phone Game Creepy? 2 Chicks Say Yes...

I've been here for about a month now. In 3 weeks of sarging, I've gotten 17 phone numbers. I have yet to have a single day 2. I think I'm beginning to see why.

I had taken TD's "Phone Game" post to heart. Basically it says don't worry about appearing needy, call whenever you want, call 3 times in a row. The idea is trying to be a challenge on the phone is useless cause she's not sweating you even if you are cool, so you might as well pester her into meeting up with you.

It seemed to make sense on paper. However, it simply does not add up based on the experiences of myself and those I know.

The moment of realization came when I had one girl, and then another, respond with something along the lines of, "Fuck off never call me again you creep." There was literally nothing that could have possibly given her such a harsh opinion of me except the frequency of my attempts to contact her.

This was 2 messages, and also I have a voice mail that I can't really understand because of the thick french accent. On the one hand, she says she wants me to call her, or she will call me "and I better answer." On the other hand she sounds kind of angry.

Maybe I've misunderstood. I mean, I think TD is the shit. I believe he knows what the fuck he is talking about when it comes to game. So what is different about what he was doing? Is he just so alpha that it doesn't matter? WTF? It just doesn't add up.

So I've been shifting my strategy. Now I'm playing hard to get bigtime. I've deleted all my numbers except the ones that are actually calling me. I basically view a girl attempting to contact me as an opportunity to blow her off. I wait 1-3 days to respond to a text/phone call. If I do pick up, it's "Oh hey, blah blah blah, hey listen I have to go, can I call you back in an hour?" Then I call back in several days.

My friend down here, who is one of the best guys I've seen, swears by this shit. And so far, it seems to be working for me. This one chick has been filling my phone with texts. I have like 20-30 texts from her. She texts me on average 1.5 times for every time I text her. This other chick... She called when I wasn't available. I've been meaning to respond... After 3 days right when I was about to call her, I got a text from her asking me to hang out with her tonight. My response will be: "Aww, you like me.  Sorry babe, I have plans tonight. I'm doing some errands Sat afternoon. Come with me."

So from now on, when I get a number, I'll call it, leave a message, and wait. And wait and wait... MAYBE try ONCE more after a week, but that's it, and if I don't hear back, NEXT.
