It is four minutes in. I am reading the first webpage in "How to Talk to Girls," and already I feel like the worst sort of person for even trying.
I know that there are methods for starting a relationship just like there are for changing the oil in a car, but that fact has always bothered me for some reason. I hate it. I hate the song and dance that goes into starting a relationship in general. I wish there was more honesty.
Still, this is the world we live in, so I guess I'll learn to play by its rules.
Okay, it is after the 30 minutes. The 2nd website I clicked on was "Psychology Today," and the article was posted by a legit psychologist that wasn't shoveling douchebag-scented pick-up-artist shit. Thank God.
Despite the fact that the advice was actually advice and not a scam, I still felt very nervous reading it. I have a nervous tick in which I more or less twitch my entire body in order to pay attention. I had to do it 3 times while reading the articles this author wrote.
I know I will not be able to retain all the knowledge I consumed, but that is okay. The important thing is that I get thinking about relationships more, and get comfortable doing so. Even now I FEEL much more prepared to go looking for relationships and dates. I am comfortable enough lifting weights in the gym that I like to "play around" and see what works. Now I need to get to the point where I am capable of doing so in relationships.
