Hi, first off I've been reading some of the stuff on this site and I've come to realize how much of an idiot I was with this girl I posted about the other day. I now know that even if she was attracted to me at one point the way I acted (always the one initiated everything, and being impatient and not waiting for her to reciprocate) pretty much killed off any attraction for her. So at this point I've decided to never initiate any further contact with her. If she decides to contact me again (which is doubtful) I'll act apathetic. Not sure whether or not to ever meet up with her again but that's a completely different subject all together. I'll suck to lose a friend but I never really wanted her as just a friend so life goes on. Well, whatever, my problem though is that I would like to meet some new women to at least practice and regain some of my lost self-esteem and confidence. But I don't know where to find these women, other than bars (which I hate, women there always have their defenses up because they are expecting guys to hit on them). I've thought about asking my best friend (who is a women) to help me out by introducing me to any cute single friends she has. But I don't know whether or not this is a good idea. As well, when I do meet a new women (or several hopefully) how best should I go about opening the encounter and immediately creating attraction so I don't end up friend zoned. Thanks.
