Default My interaction experience with women is very low

I feel like it will take tons of experience to be able to get a girlfriend because of this.

I have other things needed to focus on though. e.g. work.

I cant seem to find a solution

Hi ultimate.

Each person must set priorities in his life. Man can't always have everything.
But i always thought that when man wants someting, he always can get it. So that would mean you can get what you want.

Each person must also have a stable situation. Man can't always work, man can't always sleep, man can't always eat. Each person needs to have multiple actions to do in life.

You are surely not working 24/7 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That is nearly impossible. You must have some spare time don't you? If you have other priorities in life, then use that spare time to fulfill those goals.
__________________________________________________ _____________
You don't explain much of the problem. But i may have an idea on what it is.

If you actually have spare time, but you still don't understand why you can't get a girlfriend, maybe it's because of low self esteem, maybe that you are scared to fail in such experience.

If this is the problem. Than i have exactly the same problem as you (but with a different condition, check out my thread i posted not long ago). Many people tell me that success is obtained by a repetitive amount of failures, but without losing motivation.

If a task is too hard to achieve, then split the big task into smaller tasks, easier to achieve.
(Example : the big task of getting a girlfriend can become :
1/ Find a girl
2/ Be-friend with a girl
3/ Get a more intimate relation with a girl
You can also split those steps into more steps etc.)

This way, you will never be "scared" to achieve a goal.
__________________________________________________ _

I hope i resolved a part of the problem. (Yes, the rest is up to you.). See you

That's a really lame excuse.

Everyone has to work and still has plenty of spare time. And you obviously don't have kids taking up your spare time :-)

You just need to expose yourself to more social situations where there are some woman around. Find some clubs to join in your area

You always come here to complain about not being able to get with women. What if you were to devote your life to trying to inspire women, rather than trying to "get" them?

Find an activity where you'll be surrounded by women..

For me, it's markets where I sell prints of my artwork..

For Will in About a Boy, it's a single parent group..

Also, possibly Yoga?

Or you could just hang about the ladies toilets,... OK, that last one, probably nto such a good idea

If you don't feel as though you have alot of experience with women then just start somewhere and build your confidence from there. Women aren't all that different from men. Plus there are such a wide range of women out there that I'm sure there has to be a group of women that you can relate to on some level.

It sounds like you throw yourself into your work to occupy your time so you must spend alot of time with your colleagues. Why don't you practice on your female colleagues - just strike up a conversation. The good thing about this scenario is when there's an awkward silence because you've run out of things to say, or you are simply bored, you can use the good old 'better get back to work' excuse.

People love to talk about themselves because they would know the subject matter well, so if you are looking for conversation starters, I would try those ... Ask them about where they grew up, school, what they studied/studying at uni, what do they do for work, interests ... Then look for common ground to expand your conversation further, you get the idea.

I usually avoid these kinds of threads, because it seems like everyone is an expert on giving advice on this subject. In fact, nobody is, except people with "practical experience" (read, "pick-up artists"), and researchers of this subject (yours truly).

But the fact that you post a thread like this says something about you. You are acting like a person who will never get a girlfriend. Don't do ♥♥♥♥ like this. Get the ♥♥♥♥ off the forums and enjoy your life, with our without women.
