I used to have confidence, I didn't mind approaching girls and here and there I had some successful closes.

Now I just lost it..
I don't even feel like sarging..
When I see a pretty girl, I usually just convince myself that I don't want to talk here, as opposed to when I actually wanted to and either approached or was left with a feeling of regret.

Has this happened to anyone else?

I've been here for just a couple days, and have seen multiple questions like the one your asking in relation to situations you're facing as well....I suppose everyone goes thru some down time...its alright man, dont beat yourself up over it..

I've recently been dumped by one of the few females that I've had the pleasure of knowing yet...and it fucked sucked..But I found this place and already I'm feeling tons better just from reading shit on here....I've found advice on situations similar to my own right now.....situations i've faced in the past, before I knew half of what I know now...situations that I hope to face in the future.....ya kno..just reading that theres so many people out there going thru the same shit...and then reading so many things by people who successfully conquered the same situations makes me feel better and more confident for next time I encounter a situation...

Its all about working on yourself....Read thru this website as I'm sure you will find several posts that reflect your own feelings and situations..

Identify why you feel this way and what/when happened you started to feel this way..

Then you'll be able to pick the pieces back up and change what you dont want.

Its obvious that your current thinking no longer suits you....so throw it out in the trash and build a new way of thinking...a positive one
