Mike's blog from the other day inspired me to write one about The Game, reasons for getting into it and more, so here it is;
Theres thousands of reasons why I wanted to get into the game, the biggest one is probably to become socially able to talk to girls without wetting my pants a little bit, or even stuttering. I actually shit myself when approaching a girl, 90% of the time I blow it and walk straight past, the other 10% I ask for the time, like thats going to get me anywhere. The only thing I can do to a stranger is smile, most of the time I get a smile back, most of the time. I really don't understand how to hurdle the social barrier, what the fuck do I say? I can't just walk up to them and be like "hi," they'd probably think I'm really weird or something, and very well I'll introduce myself, but then what? After they know my name I'm not gonna keep them standing around asking them every question under the sun about themselves when they've probably got somewhere to go but are too polite to excuse themselves. I honestly don't think anybody knew that I had a massive problem approaching strangers. All the girls who I've told that I have this problem were like "whaaat? You're fine with me and I started off as a stranger," you didn't, you started off as a mate of a mate, and I just introduced myself from there, I had an anchor point when I introduced myself, I could easily say "oh I'm Josh, a friend of blahblah, I'm pretty sure you know them aswell?" and it'll go from there, plus thats behind a computer screen, I can do ANYTHING behind a computer screen and not feel stupid, in person its totally fucking different, I really doubt I could hold a conversation with them in person, even if I got introduced by our mutual friend.
So, I decided to do something about it, seeing as I'm now 18 and the ability to talk to strangers will help me out so much, I've gone through years in life thinking I'm not attractive, out of shape, no personality, so many things that have lowered my self esteem along with my confidence. And now its time for a fucking change. When I've mastered a few techniques and actually tried them out in the field I'm sure you'll notice a change within the next few months, a massive change. Once I've clocked this, I'm going to seriously sort my life out, get a little job so that I've got enough money to join a gym and go out every friday, look for an apprenticeship if I don't get into college, start learning a little hobby (which will probably be skateboarding).
Don't get me wrong, I can talk to girls, as long as I talk to them behind something rather than in person, like a phone conversation, Facebook, and other lame things. Once I'm comfortable talking to you I'll have no problem when I'm out with you, I'm comfortable enough going in for a kiss, as long as I'm comfortable with that person. And when it comes to getting someones number, I normally can, as long as I've got a few drinks in me and I'm not my concious self, the only problem with getting the number is actually using it. Every number that I've got I don't think I've ever given them a call or dropped them a text, I'm so shit.
So yeah, thats basically the reason that I got into the game. To build confidence, know what to say around the opposite sex to get them interested in me, and a tonne of other reasons I can't be bothered explaining right now.
Now, time to indulge in a bit of reading, cya.
