Hey guys,

About to turn 21 and I want to change my life around -- haven't had a girlfriend before and have minimal sexual experience. Virgin. Joined a fraternity but the experience hasn't wiped away a lifetime of low confidence -- the deep-rooted confidence that isn't easily noticeable upon first glance in a social environment but remains persistently. Also, I have a tendency of prioritizing academics over my personal life and this year I intend to maintain a right balance and developing my social life.

We grow angularly, at light-year speed in one aspect of our personality while stagnantly in others. So here I am, playing catch up on those aspects of myself that have undergone atrophy over the years. I'll maintain a log of my growth here and seek the advice of many of you. I'm at a point in my life where I realize that beneath my limiting beliefs is something beautiful that prevents me from having deeply enriching conversations with women; it's not exactly the fear of rejection as it is a medley of self-limitations I am trying to eradicate.

Thanks in advance for all the help this community has to offer individuals like me.

Hook 'em,
Wanderlust
