So, I went to uni this past year, which involved leaving my friends in my home town.

But back then, I had status, and my my first impressions didnt come off as weird.

During this year, I've been thinking about what I want in my life, and generally sorting through my inner game. I feel comfortable as person, except round girls now. I seem to give off this "If you don't like it, fuck off" attitude which i never had before, as well as a a sense of shyness.

I have tried to go out there and be as adventurous as i can, but I haven't got any decent results in field, and end up in the friendzone/yourjustweird section. I don't know weather I should just try and make a bigger group of friends in uni, or just focus on gaming people I have never met before.

It kinda crushed me when a mate told me this girl I was trying to game thinks I'm weird, in a bad way :/

I've tried the game, and Richard La Runas book, whilst I understand the concepts, I don't use them right? Maybe its them not me? Maybe I just need some new shoes or outfit or present myself differently. I duno, I feel like a failure right now, and don't know if I wana carry on...

Only make a bigger group of friends at Uni if you can guarantee that you will stand out from all of them.

As for the weirdness thing, I think that just takes practice. You've gotta be different enough to stand out from the crowd but not so different you come across as a whackjob. Go out and try lots of pickups. Try different outfits, try different lines and see what works and what doesn't.

This is something you'll refine from experience more than anything.

Hope that helps and the advice isn't too vague!

Good luck!

Without more details it's hard to tell what exactly is going on, but I can draw on my own experiences.

"Wierdness" is usually the way people perceive you if you just sit there observing without interacting. How do you behave in a social setting? Do you get out there and mingle or do you prefer to observe from the comfort of a wall? You have to avoid the temptation to be a wallflower, because no matter how hard you try to hide at a social event, you will be noticed and conclusions will be drawn based on how you behave.

How do you look at women? Do you look them in the eye, keep the, keep eye contact and alternate between different parts of the face? Or do you undress them with your eyes by scanning up and down?

What's your facial expression? Do you smile or do you keep a poker face to stop people from getting in?

The two simplest tips I can give you are as follows:

1 - Smile

2 - Talk

You have to keep on talking. No matter how awkward it feels, you've got to keep talking to them. The more you do it, the better you get at it. As for the smiling, it doesn't have to be a big bright beam. A cheeky grin is usually enough. I'm the kind of person that can find it hard to smile, especially for a camera. But I find it a lot easier to just give a gentle grin, and that's usually enough to change my inner frame of mind. By the time I start talking, the grin becomes a smile, and if I'm having a good time it will grow into a wider smile.

Practice, practice, practice, even with the ones who think you're weird. They'll come around eventually, and soon you'll hear them saying "He's actually a nice guy once you get to know him." In fact I highly recommend engaging with that girl again, but this time do so with a view to getting her into the friend zone. That'll overcome a big mental block you seem to have developed where she's concerned.
