Confidence...need some help

[Mazeman11]

Hi..
I'm 24 and I'm having a bit of a confidence problem.
I was away for many years for school and temporarily moved back to live with my family. I will start working in a few weeks.

My confidence has been affected because I don't have a job yet. When I talk to women I feel uncomfortable telling them I'm not working yet even though I will be eventually.

How would you deal with this?

If the whole fact that you don't have a job is ruining your confidence, then simply get off your butt and apply for jobs!

Think about it:

If you're hungry and you have food in the refridgerator, then you need to get up and walk to the kitchen and fix yourself some food to satisfy your hunger.

Likewise, if you want a job and you have opportunities to get one in a mall, store, theater, office, etc etc. The possibilities are as wide as the horizon.

PS: If talking to women seems like a problem to you, whether it's due to lack of confidence or undeveloped social skills, I say apply for a job at a restaurant...like Denny's, IHOP, California Pizza Kitchen, etc. You will meet a LOT of people, and you'll definitely meet some hot women along the way. Because you're required to talk to them, you get many opportunities to use ****y/Funny on them. Afterall, it IS your job to talk to the customers.

I have a job offer but it only starts in a couple of weeks.

The problem is not my social skills. It's the fact that I've been looking for a while (In my technical field) and my confidence has been down ever since.
