I don't really know what to think about it, to be honest. I'm never going to be strutting my stuff as an uber-confident Alpha type, since I'm just not that kind of person, but apparently that's the fundamental key to building any kind of attraction with women.


First off, the Alpha male strut is junk science from the PUA community, itself a weird sort human brain hacking consortium for the awkward penguin types who've decided that p**** is more important than dignity. That's not to say some of it isn't interesting. But, the same could be said for the Unabomber Manifesto, too.




Marry me.


I laughed at that, FullOfStars. XP

Seriously, though, MrEGuy, thanks for all that advice. I mean, I really wasn't expecting anyone to go out that far with a pep-talk! But, I guess you're right. There's really no excuse for not being the best I can personally achieve, rather than straining to reach some imaginary ideal of perfection. Got to stand on my own two feet, so to speak.

As far as pursing the things that I love to do, I've joined an Irish language club in college, so I'll see how that works out. Since I have a heavy workload this year, I probably won't be dashing off to adventure right away, but it's something I definitely won't forget.

Once again, thank you sincerely for your words of wisdom!

Don't let the workload thing weigh you down. If you meet a great girl in the club, make the club your excuse for interacting with her.

Oh! And now notice this college thing . . . I had the sort of luck in college every aspie dreams of: I lived on a co-ed floor in a dorm. Do you have any idea the awesome opportunities to be had in a study room helping a freshman girl with her ENG 101 papers?!

College is a great place for just saying hi. I cannot emphasize that enough. Presuming you're not at some odd specialized college, you're outnumbered by girls at an astonishing rate and half the guys are either gay or in frats (which moves them off the board entirely when they're involved in all their guy-on-guy fun).

Don't let college go to waste. It's the easiest time in your life to say hi to girls. You're sitting in a hallway waiting for the previous class to leave, you see a girl, say hi. You get put in a study group, say hi. You sit in a study room, say hi.

And don't limit the say hi thing to girls. You'll meet some cool people just saying hi everywhere you go.

@fullofstars: Don't stake your future well-being on a single paragraph. :wink:
