Today I approached a woman. She was coming from the opposite direction. She passed by me, and I took a turn and went up to her, smiled a bit and said a calm Hi. I don’t what she was thinking. She had her earphones on. Anyway, she pulled them down. I just rephrased myself once more. And she replied back with a kind of shy, scared ‘Please no’. I felt kind of weird. I just left her alone. Rejection is part of the game. I will try on the new one that comes my way. And yes, I am not that great in approaching women. It’s still one of my sticking points. I am trying to overcome that, damn it.
Anyway, I’m very happy that I did approach a woman. I was getting a bit complacent with the fact that I am being regularly approached by women and that I get to know girls through my social circle more often. Yes, attracting someone towards me is not that hard anymore. But I need to do the cold approaches nonetheless. I want to be PERFECT and also meet some new cool people on the way.
I just figured two ideas while I was on the bus to a shopping mall. Actually I was trying to figure out what might be great opener on a public vehicle.
