One night can change your life

[Daruff12]

This is just to introduce myself. So im gonna keep all these little facts short.

I am your standard AFC.

I've been lurking these boards for a little while.

I'm def not bad looking at all and I do ok but ive always had anxiety about approaching and calling and closing... well you know AFC!!

I went out last week with an old friend of mine that is a natural DJ. We had a blast and I learned alot.

Went out last night with my roomate (even bigger afc than me!!). and I stepped completely out of my comfort zone. I approached every set I saw that didnt have guys with them. Must have been at least 20!

I only got 1 number and took 2 of the most harsh rejections I ever took.

Feels awesome!

Thx guys.

Nice job man.



... I'd be interested in hearing what how the rejections went?

If you aren't getting rejected at least some of the time then you aren't doing it right. Although I would like to hear details too .

1. I was BS'ing wit HB5 and HB7, that was the first approach I made. We were having an awesome time laughing our arses off and kino'ing like crazy. I left wit no numbers. Few hours later they were at the same table with their hb9 friend... so I go back over. Things dont go as well this time so I leave after a quick minute. As im leaving hb9 catches up to me and taps me on the shoulder.... Im thinking, "sweeeet". She says with a straight face "were not fvkin interested, dont come back over here."
I thought I had a real bad fear of rejection, but this didnt kill me and I walked away smiling.

2. HB8 outside smoking: I say "Hey whats ur name? Here by yourself?"
I get... "im here with my bf, and your lame" This might have been due to me smiling too much. For some reason when I get nervous I cheese hard.

Good news is, you're unlikely to get worse rejections than that. So now you "survived" them and moved on, you can be that much more confident.
