    NEW TO THIS FORUM ALL OVER AGAIN!

    Hi everyone...I've been gone from this forum for a while, so I thought I would take a minute to re-introduce myself. I'm here because I USED to share many of the same issues and problems that many of you are dealing with. I was lucky enough to discover my own...

    I've been doing some thinking these past couple of days...

    Will I ever be able to break this curse?

    This reply is meant for everyone who posted here...it seems to me that there is something going on inside of all of you that prevents you from just being yourself and allowing friendships to naturally progress. I have a few ideas I am happy to share, as I used to have a similar situation when I...

    I can't move past the beginning into real friendship

    Hey cruel it's time for you to seek out people who you have similar interests with. Acting stupid for the sake of fitting in doesn't sound like much fun...that's like me trying to act smart! Anyway my point is to find people who you relate to and visa versa.

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    With #9 what I mean is that, generally speaking, you'll be better off by moving on and not playing the blame game. Of course there are times when you are not at fault for something, and therefore have 0% of the blame to take. But...I've been around too many people who continue to blame others...

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    Waking up one day and saying...I'm flawed just like everyone else! Why not me? When you accept this truth...things become a lot more clear. I know it seems too simple, and maybe it isn't the answer for everyone...but it can work for many.

    How do you reciprocate interest from a girl?

    Cut through it all. Here's what I mean...suck it up...do whatever you need to do...but get yourself to a point where you are going to let it all hang out there and...get ready...ask her if she wants to do "something sometime?"! Then...shut up and wait for the rejection. If it doesn't...

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    Nothing special about it really...I was a dorky, fat, glasses-wearing kid from a divorced home in Upstate NY. Dad wasn't around to teach me how to defend myself, act, etc. So I had to figure it all out on my own...how to be a man...how to make friends...how to treat women...how to do it all...

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    Thanks MM! I want to use my 10 rules to help others...any way I can. I read a lot of these posts...and I see enough similarities to some of the things I went through- before I figured it out. So...if I can give a little back- that would be very cool.

    How do you deal with the pain of rejection?

    At the end of the day...you really can't control how others are going to treat you. As maddening as it was when she cut you off, it's her problem and not yours'. I had something similar happen to me in high school. I had a really good friend- one day out of the blue...he turned on me. From then...

    My theory on why people fail socially

    NIKE...I can prove you wrong...show me someone with none of those 3 but a willingness to throw back a few cocktails at a crowded bar- and I guarantee you that person will find a way in his/her buzzed state to make an acquaintance or 2 that night. I have personally seen this happen with an old...

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    Excellent point Stephanie! The way this one worked for me is that once I finally realized that I had shortcomings...just like EVERYONE else has shortcomings...I was able to better undersatnd and accept that as a simple fact of life. So...now that I understand that I'm not talented enough to...

    My Top 10 Rules To Finding Your Self Confidence

    I thought I would lay these out for everyone...they worked for me! Please let me know if you would like me to expand on any of these to apply to your specific situation: 1) There is ALWAYS someone better/richer/stronger/smarter, and there is ALWAYS someone worse 2) Sometimes you HAVE to burn...
