new girl

Post Reply New Topic

anybody else find it hard when they meet someone new to not be anxious and have to force yourself to slow down so that you don't ruin it before it even begins?

The internet I find great for this.

Girls confuse me.

Oh yes, i often have to remind myself to slow down .
part of me seems to want almost compensate for all the lost time that i haven't known them, by trying to get to know them way too fast.
then again, it's usually like that with just new friends in general too, not just girls.
i guess i'm just not too good with the whole "patience" thing sometimes

& the anxiety is also a huge issue. It's almost like my mind is trying to sabotage me sometimes . Sneaky little bastard, but i've come to learn it's tricks and how to deal with them.

Happens to me all the time. I've screwed up 90% of relationships by this. My advice-avoid getting worked up at all costs. If you know you are going to be excessively nervous when you first meet up in a one on one situation, reschedule plans if possible.

This is another reason I'd rather go out with women that I've been friends with for a while rather than relative strangers... I'm a lot less nervous with women that are already friends, and because I know them I know what interests them and how to keep a conversation going with them.
