From what I can tell, there's a whole bunch of guys reading this SoSuave forum that have got honestly dire social lives. With few to no friends, or friends of a very low standard.
Well that pretty much includes me as well! Due to a whole bunch of things happening in my past, I became very shy around people generally. Now I could still pull girls (cause my urge to be with them drove me on!) but girls who fancy you make very temporary pals.
I think you gotta realise that people aren't half as scary to meet as you think. I took my backside down to a pub this evening (all by myself) and just started asking pairs of people if they wanted to play me at pool, two against one. I met some great people and walked out with two phone numbers. Not phone numbers of girls who fancied me, just people to meet as friends.
The key was believing that it wasn't as hard as that to meet new people, all you gotta do is say hello and make some simple small talk.
Now some of you might wonder what the point of this post is, cause it seems to have nothing to do with pulling girls. Well, if you don't have friends, you'll not be happy, which will make it harder. Also, you'll have no social proof (which might be especially important in the UK, where I am).
I just wanted to encourage you guys that it's easier to meet new people than you think! Now drag yourselves away from the TV in the evening and find a friendly pub!
