I have noticed recently that I have a lack of motivation to approach, and whn I finally want to, I start making up a million excuses why I shouldn't. How do you guys just make yourself get passed those feelings, say f-it and approach anyway?
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
How do you push yourself to approach?

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Do exactly that, say f-it and go approach.
Its also called the 3 second rule. In the first 3 seconds of being attracted to a woman you should approach, any longer and your mind'll come up with tons of BS to prevent you from getting them digits!

Approach where? In clubs and bars I used to be pretty ****ing drunk, so approaching wasn't scary...
I've gotten relatively confident being able to read the right signals, so I feel okay acting on them. It still can be a bit nerve racking, but nothing can be more fun than a conversation with several new girls, or a group of folks.

Three things:
Something she's DOING
Something she's SAYING
Something she's WEARING
Pick one of those and make a comment on it. If you're in an especially fun mood this is even better. You don't need to think of any lines or conversation starters this way, because she's providing YOU with all the material you need.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Theres an easy trick. I used to remind myself that men have actually been known to face down things far more scarier than a girl, I heard some even faced machine gun fire. If your pride and ego doesnt win out after that then you may aswell cut your balls off and throw them away, you have no business pretending your a man and you'll actually confuse people who may happen to read your drivers licence and other day to day paperwork that require you to give your sex.

Make a mental image of the most creepy AFC guy you know. Everytime you feel like hesitating to approach, remind yourself that if you dont do it, its one more step towards you becoming this AFC guy.
For me, I'm not so much it's fear of approach as much as it is fear of not knowing what the hell I'm going to say after "hi". I'm a bit toward the introvert side as it is and can have some difficulty sparking conversations with people I don't know already, even guys. Unless I already know they are people I have something in common with. I generally am just not the type of guy who is talkative and gregarious towards random strangers. It's just not my personality style. Number two, I hate small talk. You have no choice but to do it sometimes, but I don't enjoy it and my brain sometimes just shuts down and I just have nothing to say to people's mundane comments about the weather, tv, blah, blah.
All the PUA tactics seem to be geared toward people with extroverted personalities and nothing toward people like me.

Drewskie,
you need to ignore all of this emotional internal mumbo jumbo advice that you are getting in this thread, and listen to me, as I have successfully tested the following technique to PUSH yourself to approach:
train yourself like a dog (I am serious), condition yourself to get treats for good behavior and punishment for bad behavior
example? sure thing - make a deal with your friend that for every hot girl that you want to approach but don't approach, you have to give him $20. Maybe the first girl or 2 you will still not approach, but you will learn quickly that it is a sure-fire way to lose all your money. You are going to have NO CHOICE but to start approaching.
what's the treat that you get for this good behavior? (aka approaching girls) you get to meet hot girls that you might possibly fvck later on, aint no better treat than that!

I'm giving them an opportunity to meet me...
Plain and simple, why would I be so selfish to NOT create those opportunities for them. You're walking and see a chick, she's waiting/hoping to get that chance to meet you so go CREATE.

Well I've been approaching for a few years and I think if you're a naturally witty person then going in with nothing to say is ok. Juggler advocates doing this too, he calls it "go in nuetral".PHAT Rabbit said:
However, I think it's always good to have something prepared. Remember, it's not what, it's HOW you say it. A canned openor is just as good as a situational one as long as your showing interest in the girl. Having something prepared helps take some of the pressure off thinking of what you're going to say so you can focus on other things like Body Language, Tonality, or just plan admire her more...
Oh and nervousness only works in daygame and actually helps a little. Nervousness is not endearing in bars and nightclubs and will sink you like a stone.

What's important to me I'm finding, is to shed the false self-image that I am beyond AA. That I've 'beat' it. When I get high on myself like that, I end up not approaching so as not to deal with the possibility of that illusion being shattered. So I have to embrace and accept that I have the anxiety, and then start small. A "Hi" here and there, then maybe a SMALL conversation, and then finally going in for a full approach. Its not pleasant at first, but you just have to force yourself.
