I'm kinda on the shy side.

What if most of the time you're outside the house, girls smile at you and give you the 'look' whether you were smiling at them or not, or they look dejected if you don't notice them.

I tried pua stuff for a little bit a few years ago and felt like an ass. But, recently, I got into David DeAngelo's stuff and figured out some of why it wasn't working.

I was de-escalating by going to 'approach mode' and rapport building - even when attraction was sparked initially.

I was doing things to try and impress the girls, which made me look like a fucking loser cuz I was trying too hard to get her approval.

I need to learn to go direct right away.
I want to jump in bed with decent girls on the first encounter.
I'm sure it happens. I've done it twice. That was around 8 yrs ago.
But I need consistency.
I've been approaching a lot of girls, but it's kinda mickey mouse stuff: kissing.. .etc
Can someone help ?

For more info on where I'm at in the 'game', I posted something a couple days ago in the 'introduce yourself' forum.
