Goofed up badly. Dem girls!
Been waiting for a chance to talk to a girl, maybe get her interested in me, ya know? I am like, 20 here.
I wrote a compliment on a piece of paper and gave it to the first person that caught my eyes.
I left, without giving her my name or number, just walked up, gave it to her and left. I have no idea how that is suppose to "help" me get a girl, so don't ask.
You know what happened? Next day I saw her AGAIN at a downtown festival. Strange! I quickly wrote two little jokes on there and wrote "nice to see you again!" and gave her the note the same way, and walked away. Later that evening she found me and started talking to me. Obviously this is my moment to win her over. Green eyes. Adorable.
Here's a pro tip, when you get the chance that you've been waiting for, don't blow it. Like I did. I completely stuttered and cowardly flabbergasted this conversation. All I really said was "hi" and "how are you" and nodded here and there.
I need practise. Sorry if this felt like a blog, I felt like sharing a story. You should share a story too.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Marinade [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Darkm0d I've never understood why guys are so bad at holding a basic conversation with a woman. [/quote] My honest guess at this point is that the guys who do that over think everything they are going to say and end up second guessing themselves to the point where they just don't say anything. Remember guys, women are people too. Don't over think what you're going to say, just be yourself.[/quote] There was a Ted talk on something like this. It was by, Phillip Zimbardo I want to say. But he basically said that guys are becoming so desensitized from so many forms of media (mostly -blam!-) that they can't connect socially/emotionally with women.
