Hey everybody,
My friends think its time I tried my hand at this business. I don't really have issues with women as such, just confidence issues I guess, which I'm sure a lot can relate with. Just that first "hey" when your out, a lot of guys seem to be able to pull it off with ease but I usually just end up saying some random word instead, like "turtle" or "cabbage patch kids". I’m told I’m not ugly, but by friends, which means diddly squat because, well, they won’t turn around and say horrid things, they are friends. Currently 168.lbs, which IMO is about 20 over what I would like to be… Blonde, blue eyes, no relation at all to the Hitler youth… Erm, yeah that’s about it!
Not exactly new to being in a relationship, had a few serious ones, last one was 3 years which ended in May last year, one before together was 5 years. Like I said, I guess I just lack that initial confidence thing most guys tend to have.
Anyway, just stopping by to say hi etc! Can't imagine there are many from where I am on here, but you never know!
Thanks :p

Hi there, im new to all this too. Its kinda weird eh
Im not really sure what im meant to be doing. I know what u mean by the initial hello thing. Even tho i am female, we do get it too. I have many male friends so i am normally quite comfortable talking to guys, only thing is most of em think i wanna be their friends lol. Whats a gal gotta do? lol Hope you find some luck on here. You seem like a nice AND good looking guy on u pic. ( You dont often get that combination
)Trying to upload mine at the mo, not sure which one to chiise, sexy or normal? I bet i know which one u gonna say tho

Whichever one shows you off as you! What more can anybody ask for :p
I know females get that shy feeling too, its horrible... Makes me think just how some guys really can just go up to anybody and say anything, and get the right reply they want all the time :s Maybe with "looks" comes "uber confidence"
Thanks for the compliment, I really don't feel good looking, never have! They say that its whats inside a person that matters most, shame I'm usually shunned away before anybody gets to know me

If you yourself dont think you're good looking, you will never have the confidence to approach a random chick. Because, thats all they are, a random person..with 9/10 chance of you never running into them again, what does it matter if you get told 'No'? you might aswell give it your best shot. After all, if you ask 15 girls you'll atleast get 2-3 numbers. An thats what counts, right? After a while you'll get used to it.
Though, it does help if you can sort of read their facial expressions before you speak and after you speak so you can base your initial 'hello' on that.

If you dont feel ur good looking and lack confidence, than that can send out a bad signal. Either u start trying to build that confidence up,or u fake it to start off with. When ur going up to a girl, pretend u are completely confident and smile. I bet u will find a better reaction. Then hopefully ur confidence will start to build up

Though dont smile if you have bad teeth, thats usually a deal breaker right there.

Yeah, if you have bad teeth, just put on a poker face and wink from time to time.

lol WTF? Yeah, I have just gums :p
It sounds spot on what you say, still takes some getting used to, but in an odd way your guys are right... Chances are never going to see them again anyway, so who cares.
Hmmm... Maybe I should just try it, you never know right.

Gotta say, went out last night and tried to be a bit more relaxed about things. Was nice to see the old cheeky Gav come back into play
Spoke to a lot of random ladies and even though I didn't strike it rich, I think I made a nice impression.
Guess it really is just that first impression that matters most to people, I just like shy women too for some reason? Plus romance, I'm an old fashioned guy, which sadly a lot of women don't seem to be into any more, so looks like its time for a little change!
