Okay, I'll be the first to admit that I'm still an AFC but everyday I feel more and more on the right track. For a long time I dealt with AA. Before learning about Puas I could just ignore it because fearing women was just natural. But, now that there is a name to it and I understand it better it hurts that much more to chicken out. Well, this afternoon I went to starbucks and saw a possibl set consisting of 2 girls. At first I was petrified and broke the 3 second rule in the worst way. What I found strange was that I didn't select either of them as a target. They weren't even the most attractive of girls but I really wanted to practice my game and Style has emphasized approaching girls even if you aren't attracted to them to eliminate your fear and compare your reactions. Well, if I couldn't approach 2 girls that I didn't find attractive how could I approach HBs? Finally, I decided that rejection had to be better than the lurching feeling in my stomach and I approached.

Me: Excuse me, I need an opinion on something. Who lies more guys or girls?

This was a legitimate canned opener that I'd finally put to use! Their reaction viewed me as innocent enough but all of their answers left me with nowhere to go in the conversation, and to make matters worse they were seated in side by side chairs with no place for me to sit and attempt inner game. So, my body took over and forced out a quick close.

As I walked out of the coffee shop I was beating myself up "Stupid! You did so many things wrong! They probably think you're a creep!" But, after a few minutes it dawned on me. The epiphany I'd needed. All I needed to do was ask one simple question...

"Who cares?"

It's not like I'd ever see those two again. Besides, even though I screwed up big time I had actually approached. I wasn't really worried about myself other than being concerned I'd had an adverse effect on others. But, I didn't have to please them and I'm now able to focus on the fact that now I actually have confidence to approach even if my inner game is nonexistent I can just take things one step at a time right? I'm gonna work more on approaches and soon I'll have this AA thing gone for good!
