I hate being so nervous. I can not ask anyone to do anything with me. Do not tell me to be confident, or be myself, because those two can not co-exist. :ncool:

I have trouble with the asking part, actually I think I can do it with a fair amount of confidence... or at least ambivalence. But it's the details of forcing myself... even when I know it wont be terrible... even if she rejects me.

But comfort comes from just talking with women, just do it somehow... don't even worry about success. In fact assume you will fail, and just do it anyways. Talk about any stupid topic you can think of... but ask women what their opinion and feelings are on it.

I don't even think 'confidence' is much of a big deal... but not caring what others think about you helps. As weird as it is for me to say something like this, assuming that others will care and find interesting what you say... it helps.

It really helps to be in a place where I am really comfortable, where I can just say and do and be what I want. If you are this comfortable... it can't help but make you a little more interesting to women.

if ragtime were to call me a silver tounged devil, he might get a 3, but so far he is just a peanut gallery, so he gets 0/10 for having no balls.

Well, since I wasn't even campaigning, I DO stand at 0/10.

Kind of confusing why you rated me. I guess every male who makes a post in this thread gets judged as if he were flirting? I'm beyond the "rate me please" phase, which is why I haven't flirted in this thread.

Oh, thank you for kicking me in the balls. I'll bet you learned that in a karate class. May I come to your next karate class to watch your technique some more?

Just goes to show, if girls mention balls or their synonyms in any context, men get distracted.
(Or focused, depending on how you look at it.)
