You can't meet girls because you lack social proof

How do I find/meet beautiful women without social proof

build up enough social proof to actually get into these circles?

Hello MPUAForum, I've a question. Not liking introductions I'll get straight to it.

I met a natural not so long ago and have been hanging around him for a while, and what I've recognized is something I'm sure you all know: having beautiful women in your life attract more beautiful women. So I've been working on my self-confidence for a while, and like so many of you have achieved, have started feeling comfortable while talking. I'm ready to get out there, raise the bar and meet and pick-up women.

Now here's the problem, I don't have friends who like going out and picking up women, in fact most of my friends are more than a little socially awkward... even compared to me. As a result I either go out with the bunch of them, or with a group of girls I've sort of gathered around myself.

These girls aren't the best looking, so they don't do much in the ways of social proof. My friends scare off girls better than a scarecrow does vultures and I'm not the best looking guy, even if I do have a decent personal style.

The million dollar question being: How do I build up enough social proof to actually look attractive to the women worth meeting.

It feels like a bit of a vicious circle in which: You can't meet girls because you lack social proof, and you can't get good social proof because you aren't meeting these awesome girls everywhere, which you should be doing because of your healthy, socially active lifestyle.

Any thoughtful advice would be appreciated

TLDR: How do I find/meet beautiful women without social proof, or build up enough social proof to actually get into these circles?

Social proof is a tool in pick up, but it's definitely not mandatory to have. If you are interesting and charming, you don't need social proof. No woman is going to turn you away because you don't have an entourage.
