Post subject:  Very humble beginnings (sort of)

To call this a day 1 would be a bit disingenuous but it was certainly my first solo sarge attempt in the evening. Writing it up seems cathartic, even if it wasn't a success.

I've had AA for ages, (long story .. ) but have periodically managed to approach and open girls (including direct in the day time and getting numbers, dates) but it's been very inconsistent and I'm starting to feel the F in AFC. More than that I want to change for the better. I want to live my life to the full.

Recently I've been feeling quite negative and have been getting tension-like headaches when wanting to approach. This is especially annoying as I'm more comfortable in what I want to say and how, the headaches just sap my energy.

Get into town. I know I have some m8s in town but I resist getting hold of them straight away. Just walk through town grinning up to the first bar. Hesitate a little then go in. Go to the toilet. Walk kto the bar. Consider getting a drink, taker stock of the situation and realise there aren't many women there. Use that as an excuse and leave. Feel pangs oftension/anxiety/nervousness shooting through my hands, it's f'cking uncomfortable.

Head towards bar number 2. Decide to tx to see if m8s are out. They are but they're in a shit rock bar and I don't want to go there. This takes a while, end up having a few brief insteractions with groups of people as they pass.

Head into bar 2, grab a drink and then leave not long after, just can't get a handle on nerves.

Decide to just walk for a while, end up having a few basic interactions but nothing I opened. Sit for a while considering what to do next.

Consider leaving but open some girls in the lift on the way back to my car. They seem friendly. Decide to try one last place..

Head in. It's half empty. Recognise some girls I met in passing last week , not hot but open anyway. We all start chatting it goes pretty well. Dance. Talk. Leave for another bar together.

Finally in the last bar I do open properly. Walking up the stairs to the toilet, girl walks past me. Brunette HB7 maybe. Do massive double take and then ask her name, we chat briefly and she seems friendly. Say I might see her outside.

Now, I know the next thing I did was wrong, however I did it because otherwise I might not have opened. I went straight to find her after going to the toilet. Spoke to her, it was too flat and functional. I was talkign to her as if I'd met on the street (day game) I had no energy and wasn't being that interesting. Meh.

I wish there was more to this story. There isn't. Said good bye to the girls a little later. TBH from the earlier nerves, a gym session and a run I felt shattered, wouldn't have been able tio get any energy togewther. Plus it was gone 2am at this point.

The positives I'm focusing on;

- I went out by myself
- I didn't just leave
- I did meet people
- I did approach
- I haven't been feeling good and I still did this

If you have AA or whatever I hope this helps. More positive reports soon, let's make this the first of many.
