I still lack confidence, guts and charisma.
I have a long story that I am not keen on posting on a moderately mublic message board. Basically I had three chances to try and pick up a bit of loving (not necessarily on the night, I mean down the road... one of them was the girl behind the bar, so the best I could hope for was a bit to eat at 7-11 but no matter). But no, first I strike out because I overcompensate my usual problem (never comfortable and so get tongue tied - last night I just talked and talked crap). Then I let an opportunity pass by because I judge her out of my league. Then finally (this is the bar chick) I chat, I do really well but as I had no balls I just left. No ask ffor a drink/7-11/anything. Just a "well I might see you round, nice to meet you".
What a fucking softcock.
Pardon my language. Just not happy with myself.
So anyway does anyone have any words of wisdom or motivation?

not really.  dunno? us females don't always make it easy anyway, so don't blame yourself. i guess you just have to use those balls of yours and go for it. not much choice, is there? |

welcome to the club....i'm pretty sure i'm already a high ranking official. Basically, my experience tells me that you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. Of these two options, damned if you don't takes less effort. It does mean, however, that you may die wondering.....
also, watch that tv show Ed...its always going on about this sort of thing...

I think that you should ask the bar girl out [cause obviously you will never know otherwise] I wouldnt worry about it. She works there so you will see her @ the bar again. When you do, just go up to her and try and gauge if her look is saying: "oh.... him again" or "mmmm theres that hunk again... " It will work more in your favour now that your asking her out now, rather than the first moment you meet her. It will just seem as though its just dawned on you that shes a real nice PERSON so you realise you'd like to spend more time with her, [yes, wasnt her rack that got your attention at all ] rather than talking to her for the explicit purpose of asking her out. If that makes any sense :crazyeyes: |

good advice katey! ;D Evan: if she is a skimpy...just don't ask her to do the $2 trick for you...might lessen your chances if you know what I mean... |

The bar was at the Grand Hyatt, and I'm never there, I was ony there because I'd been upstairs at a dinner with fancy industry types. (OK I'd been helping out at the Titans dinner, but that doesn't mean I can't hang around with the CEO and other important businessmen if I want to get into the industry)
