Hi all,

First, let me start by saying that this is a great community to be involved in. It's great to see people being helped and people helping others in whatever problems they might have about themselves.

Now, to my problem:

I've had a few relationships in the past with other girls but now (24 years old), I find myself in a position where I'm starting over again as I can't seem to build up the confidence in to speaking with another girl at a bar/club/etc without me thinking 'I hope I don't get rejected again'. When I do speak to girls I never push them or never imply that I want to pick them up, I just am myself.

I always have a hard time finding ways in asking for their number or initially saying Hi to a girl. I always seem to get my friends to help me with the initial contact but I'd like to develop it so I can do it on my own. What sorts of things would one talk about when trying to get a girl interested?

There are so many beautiful girls in the world and I can't even find one. My last few relationships ended in disaster as the other girls weren't honest with me about a few things.

The only problem I seem to have is my speech. I feel like I talk way too fast and mumble all my words up or I can't say certain words without stuttering. I just don't know what to do with myself. My last girlfriend said I wouldnt get anywhere in life and one night she said to me 'I can have anyone I want, you cant'.

Worst case scenario, I can live my life alone. That's no problem... I'm used to it already

If anyone can give this Australian man (from Melbourne) any help, it would be much appreciated!

Cheers,

SG

Or you could practice speaking more clearly.

Just come to America and girls will practically throw themselves at your Austrailian accent!

But if the trip is too far, maybe you just have to realize that rejection is part of the game. Like applying for jobs, you might have to send out 100 resumes, but the only one that counts is the one where you land a job. Each failure is one step closer to success.

And pay no attn to what your ex said... that was just mean. She might be able to get anyone she wants initially, but they'll dump her soon when they figure out what a stuck-up beotch she is...

I'd gladly deal with a stuck-up bitch if she gave me sex...
