Hello Pick-up-artists,

My real name is Matthias (I'm looking forward to have a pickup name one day)
I live in Belgium (yeah that's a country).
I am 24 years old, not a virgin anymore luckely, but still very unexperienced with girls.
Until college I never had a single relationship with any girl (I was one of the less popular guys from school).

Then I met a girl from the internet, I dated her and started a relationship (with sex) with her for 6 months. She dumped me afterwards, even though I really tried to let things work out. I was (and I still am) the good guy.

Afterwards I still had a 6 month relationship and 2 other "interactions" with girls.All of these girls(kinda pretty girls tho) I discovered from the internet.
The last girl already dated from 2 years ago, so I think I can say that things don't really work out for me as they should.
So I have always been the good guy, trying to do always good as much as I could.
I got dumped everytime. I was and I still am an AFC.

I gave up the whole internet dating thing, because I don't really like it anyway.
I realised it would be far less time consuming and far more rewarding by just starting to new girls from real life.
But then the question was: how should I start? Because I've never been that guy who started to talk to girls in real life. (it's so much easier from the internet)

It was december 2012 on a cold day (I really don't remember the day, but in december it's always cold here), when I hit on some publication of a book:
"The Tao of Badass". I downloaded it and prescribed for their website. I learned quite a lot of things there.
There, they also talked about Pickup 101 of Lance Mason, so I went to the website and payed for the stuff (it costed me like 100 EUR each month for 6 months),
but hey getting better with girls is worth everything right? Especially since I made enough money.
So after that I started to talk with girls from time to time, pushing myself on the edge with some daygame. But I was kinda crappy at it.
Last month I went on holiday for 3 weeks, a lot of beautiful girls there, a lot of chances, but I still was the good guy, the guy that talked to people but just in a friendy way and leaved it there. So I never even kissed a girl there. (I think I could have done a few times on different girls, but hell I didn't)
It was also on that holiday that a (new) friend advised me to read "the game", which I started doing previous week.
I am now more than halfway in that book and I'm gonna finish it soon off course.
It's just... I was wondering the things they do in the book I'm sure they worked out for Style, but do they still work out?

Furthermore I've still a few other questions:
I live on the countryside, we have some bars here, with some (beautiful) girls in it, but I don't really have a wingman, someone who wants to do the same as I want.
So should I just go alone to this bars and start talking to the people? (I already did before, but it still feels kinda akward)
Should I even do daygame or for now only do approaches in bars/clubs? (until I got more experienced)
What openers would you use then?
I am probably gonna move to the city soon (alone), but it will be the same problem: I will still have to go out by my own to get some girls.

So thats a lot of reading for you guys, I really hope you can help me out and that I can become a PUA soon.
That would really mean anything for me.

Thanks in advance, guys.

Regards,

Matthias
