Hello everyone, this is my first post on a Saturday night at 3am after another failed attempt and picking up a woman. I feel like I'm at the end of my rope here and theres only one place to turn to. I've read "The Game" by Neil Strauss (Styles) and it really opened my eyes on what an average guy like me who has been hit with the LJBF routine all my life can do. I have Mystery's book on order and in the mail, and I'm hoping the community can help me in accomplishing my goal of simply enjoying my time in college.

My biggest problem would be the ability to keep a conversation going (be it with men or women) and the inability to create any kind of interest or attraction in a conversation. Many times I freeze up or just idle in small talk which quickly causes disinterest and eventually rejection. Because of this I'm too afraid to even open a set. Can someone please point me in the right direction when it comes to getting over my inability to keep a conversation going and bringing out my inner PUA.
