There's some guy I talk to who believes the theory that the top 20 percent of dudes get 80% of women, and that because he doesn't have a brad pitt jaw and isn't 6' +, he might as well just hate women because they'll never like him anyways.

    I'll let you in on something you may or may not be aware of.

    Fwiw in the US and other western societies, men are generally expected to make the first move. So don't sell yourself short. Especially if you've caught them checking you out or staring at you.

    Go up and say hi, introduce yourself and feel things out.

    You won't know if they want to talk to you if you never try man

    Edit:Man is expected not the woman

      Go up and say hi, introduce yourself and feel things out.

      I am 100% guaranteed to humiliate myself if I do this.

            Yea, but you'll never leave square 1 if you don't go up at all

                Yeah you will, as someone who's been both a man and a woman, I can tell you that you definitely will. We aren't some foreign creatures, we're people just like you. Dial back that anxiety, keep the ability to take a hint, and you'll do fine. To cringe is to grow!

                  No, I'm on disability and it instantly makes every woman I talk to uninterested in me because I don't work. No way around it.

        Fuck I meant to say man. Wasn't thinking.

        Sorry! Was distracted.

        Basically if this guy doesn't try, he'll never know is what I'm saying
