    Hi nofappers,

    Most of my friends are too afraid to do this. Just share your experiences. Let us motivate eachother to try to do this, is better than watching porn and fapping your semen away alone doing nothing

    Honesty! At least for me, as someone with some self-esteem issues it was always(the few times I did in public and it actually worked) the best when I just accepted my fear and all the things that could go wrong and talked openly about it with the women in question. For example "Hey there, this may be weird and I'm quite nervous about it, but I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if i hadn't at least asked for your name". Just be true to your nature and work with that, as pretending to be someone else will fail at one point or another anyway ;)

    From there, if she shows some sign of interest, you can ask her if you can walk a few steps with her(if she seems a bit busy, but don't push it if she seems like really busy ;) ) and ask her some things, just don't unleash all the boring questions about age, occupation and so on at once. Maybe just if shes from here and then go on playfully. Always depended on the situation but never forget to have fun and that we're all human and everyone has the same basic needs, but most of us don't want to get either bombarded with compliments nor be interviewed about every detail of our life by a total stranger.
    And most important - don't let rejection get to you! It is to be expected that not everyone will be interested in you or just has other things on their mind right now and of course theres people that are more skilled or simply overly good looking but even they don't get landing permission on every airport.

    Simply go and talk to her without sex in your head, like if you were talking to another person, a man.

    The first time is a bit scary but after a couple of times you lose the fear and gai some skill. There is always a bit of fear the first times, no way to avoid it.

    I'm sorry, but thats a bullshit excuse and even if it would happen, the chances of getting hit by lightning are probably equal assuming that you behave like a reasonable human being. I'd strongly encourage you to get out of that media bubble and experience the real world. Most women are just people that won't sue you for showing signs of interest you know.
    And I really mean that, because it makes me sad how many people are buying into this. Peace!

    It is just an excuse for fear.

    The reason most of us fap is propably because we are single, so try to approach some women and get a girl friend or wife.

    True and I don' want to blame anyone because I know how powerful fear can be in terms of rationalizations and keeping you from living. But fear is just the worst adviser and I hate to see peoples lifes getting destroyed by it, myself included.

    Most men are afraid to approach female strangers in public, some men do it but very few.

    Don't expect anything, just be curious. Say 'I never know' to the thoughts coming to your mind and stop them right there. The things making you anxious are those thoughts and questions that you can't find an answer.

    First work in yourelve to be your best version. You are going to attract more woman been in your best version than in your worst.
    Once you are in your best woman that like you are going to make it obvious to you, that's when you just need to go and say hi. Look for red flags and if she don't have then you can go and date her and have fun.

    If you just go and apprach random woman, most of them are not going to be attracted to you so you are going to get rejected no matter what you said. That is going to make you have fear of approaching a woman.
    But if you just apprach woman that are showing sign of interest in you, your success rate is going to be a lot higher and is going to be easier to do it.

    Or we could just approach and learn to handle rejection ?
    Or we men should just aoproac
    We men could try and learn to handle rejection. Thing is if we dont do this approaching female stranger in public there are not many options to meet women, you gonna wait a long time to meet women.

    I think what's helped me to develop better communication skills and to remove fear was through a wide range of customer facing work experience. Having a job which requires you to speak to people on a regular basis (both men and women) will help you immensely, you can approach them at work to ask them if they need any assistance. I even do a lot of small talk with them just to either pass the time or because I'm bored. This has allowed me to be a lot more confident in speaking to people. Another good way to think that you're better than anyone else on this planet and that they are below you (don't take it literally, just use it as a way to condition your mind to be more brave) so you don't feel like your little in front of anyone. At the end of the day, even alpha women want a male partner who's more dominant than them.

    I prefer to do the work and wait and have amazing relationships with woman that are really into me.. you choose to be with the first woman that give you the time a day because you don't want to work and you are desperate to have woman today. As a man that have already been there, and also do the job to be in my best version, I'm advicing everyone to be patient and work on themselves to have great relationships tomorrow like I'm having rigth now.

    Of course you can. Just ask out woman that show interest in you, not every walking person that walk besides you with long hair.
    An more importantly, never stop working in yourselve, people aften stop working in theirselves when they found a woman and get stuck with that. Only date woman in your free time, spend most of the time in improving your life, the more you improve it the more woman are going to be interested in sharing it with you.

    In some situations if you want to know if the woman is interested in you, you must approach and have a chat then you will know 4 sure, some women dont give signs untill u show interest.

    When a woman have high attraction to you, she is going to make it pretty clear she is into you. If not, then she is probably not that into you, I don't waste time with woman like that.
    After dating woman that have high attraction for you, a woman that is not is not worth your time.

    Besides that, after she make it really clear that she is into you, is your job to approach her to talk and confirm that she is into you and also if there is chemestry enough to ask her out or ask for her phone number.
    She can be all over you, she can be smoking hot.. but if after 10 minute talking to her is boring I personally prefer to walk away and look for another one as hot as her but fun to be with.
