"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Ice882, you're a dumb c*nt. Rather than hurl virulent abuse, how about just sticking to answering my questions. Better still, stick to the highschool forum, boy. ****ing little idiot.

Everybody else, thank you for your comments.
Everyone else said the same thing, bud.

"Social anxiety"
"Paranoia"

those are things that you should get help for.

Let's see what I said....

"Get help". Seems pretty consistent.

Also, way to be far more hostile than I was in accusing me of being hostile.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Also, remember the more haters you have, the better. If they considered themselves superior to you, why would they bother to hate on you? What would compel them to do so? Appearances aside, the vast majority of guys in the world are AFCs in all walks of life: professional, women, everything.

When a man makes up a mind to rise above, he also becomes a target. Remember the "barrel of crabs" analogy?

I can relate to the OP on this.

Miserable b.astards will always try and drag you down to their level. It's quite funny as when you are really having a bad day you will tend to get left alone.
I find that when you're in a good mood, some tosser will try and mess with you. Usually they'll say something like; "Cheer up, it might never happen", or some s.hit like that.

Also it can work the other way around too. Like when you get some over the top, and obviously faked happiness from some self proclaimed 'wacky' idiot in an office. And the rest of the staff are rolling their eyes and thinking, oh please f.uck off with your false positivity, you're bringing the rest of us miserable f.uckers down with it. :D

It's hard to believe you're complaining about other people being hostile when you do something like this. Sounds to me like you're the hostile one.

Basically all the girl did was give what you interpreted as a dirty look, and you cuss her out like a psycho. You have no idea what the girl was actually thinking or what she and the other girl were discussing. Sounds to me like you're paranoid. Even if she was glaring at you, she did not deserve the treatment you gave her. Not acceptable social behavior.
What the OP did is something I capable of doing. I've actually spat at a girl in a nightclub knocking her drink down my back and then laughing about it, I don't think that makes me a pyscho and neither is this man, he just needs to do what I do now and have happy thoughts, soaring doves and the usual works. He's got social paranoia though, I recommend you look into this OP:up:
