I'm a 17 year old high school senior and ive got problems. I started learning about all this stuff a year or so ago, and I think its the answer. Ive never had a LTR, hell i've never even kissed a girl legit, and I can't take it anymore. The problem is my friends and my skool. Im at a small private high school, only like 200 something kids in my high school, where everybody knows everybody. All of my friends think this stuff is total BS and give me a lot of shit every time the topic arises. They also say getting girls doesn't matter, but I still feel like people look down on me because I have zero game. The other problem is that all the kids know me, and know my personality, and i don't know how to start doing all this stuff w/o getting talked about. (Yes, my inner game is pretty screwed up.) I know people say that what ur friends think doesn't matter, but I can't ignore it. In a nutshell, I don't know where to go now. Do u guys have any suggestions?

I use to go to a private school of 100. Let me say it was tough because of the situation you brought up. Everyone assumes they know you but they really don't. Now on the LTR etc., your friends are right this stuff is BS. Innergame is just trusting in yourself. As of people looking down on your because you have no game...thats just a fucked up view. (You have all everything you need, just trust yourself.)

If anything your trying compare yourself with other people and thats wrong. Why? It doesn't apply to you, your coming from a different place they other are.

Now on suggestions; write down positive assets about yourself, then find out what your passionate about (what you can do everyday), and then finally look @ yourself in the mirror and smile. (sounds retarded but it makes you face yourself as well as good for facial expression.) This should keep you busy for abit.

I went to a tiny high school in a little town where your social status was more or less set by the time you were a sophomore and rarely ever changed and even though I had the privilege of being in the "cool group," I was constantly surrounded by people who talked poorly about anything I wanted to do that was ambitious--which was a lot of stuff! So I know where you're coming from.

The simple fact is, anybody can sit on the sidelines and tell you why something will never work, why it's a bad idea or why it's a waste of time. It takes courage, on the other hand, to do anything new, because there is always the risk you might fail. I know you have the courage it takes by virtue of the fact you're here, and you have the good fortune to be embarking on a journey thousands of other guys have made with success. You won't fail, and when you don't all those guys who are giving you shit now will be asking you for advice.

"Those who lack the courage to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage yours."

well thanks for the help. i'll give it a go.

Ok dude, I know you've heard the four letter G word a million times but you should ACTUALLY DO THIS! It only takes like 5 minutes.

Write out 2 or 3 daily goals (I guess thats 5 letters huh?). for example:
1. I will talk to one new person a day I wouldn't normally talk to.
2. I will smile at 3 complete strangers.
3. I will appreciate something in my life I usually take for granted.
yatta yat

Simple goals you can accomplish daily makes you feel GOOD! If youre friends think its BS, don't talk to them about it. I only have one buddy out of many I talk to about this stuff cus my other friends are go nowhere losers, haha (sad but true!). Also, don't tell anyone your goals, they are for you ONLY, and telling others diminishes their worth, plus you have to play defense if someone thinks different- fuck em, ya know?

People who try to change overnight, come off as incongruent because it is impossible to do, but going out of your way to be friendly, and slowly stretching you comfort zone BUILDS CONFIDENCE. Think of every goal accomplished as as a small brick in your palace. You have no bricks right now, you are at the bottom. But before you know it, if you stick to doing these things, you will notice a positive aura coming from you and others will too. Then re-establish another goal or two. K.I.S.Sucka

Its really a small and simple thing, but big results start to snowball. I forgot who said this quote but it is gold. "Its not about finding yourself... its about developing yourself into the person you want to be."

(Anyone know whose quotes that is??)
