^ i agree to his post, i'm also an asian, i kinda notice that part when dealing with people
asian people from another country are somewhat hard to game. I realized. There's this Japanese chick in my class and although she's extremely attractive, it's hard to bond with her. American humor definitely confuses her as I find her saying "repeat that again?"
It's a little challenging to find something to connect on for sure. Just keep trying and remember not to make any excuses to "not" pick up.
I get approach anxiety for sure but when I realize that my overall happiness has increased by meeting new people and being social, it's quite a breakthrough.
Think of it in a semi- consequentialism perspective.
Consequentialism is the idea that you should do things that gives the best outcome.
By approaching and constantly trying, you may fail and get blown out, but it's not about the blow outs. It's about meeting new and interesting people. Just keep trying buddy. It's the effort that counts.
