I just got out a 6 year relationship and now im having problems approaching women. Holding a conversation with then is the easy part. I just get real nervous to walk up to them when I see one that I'm interested intalking to. Can anyone help me with my approach anxiety
You just have to work up the courage to do it. We've all been through the same thing.
you can also try this exercise. Picture a piece of wood. How do you feel about it? You dont have any feelings about it, its just a plain piece of wood. Now picture a set that would give you the most anxiety. For example a girl on a rush walking towards you and maybe shes with a guy and another girl. Try to remember this "not feeling anything" feeling from before and picture yourself approaching her feeling the same way. You might have to do this a few times before you can stop that automatic awkward feeling, but keep trying until you can picture yourself approaching the most scary set without feeling anything at all. You are training your mind to stop the anxiety. If you do this many times a day for 2 or 3 days you will start feeling a little less awkward in your approaches.
