MODERATORS
Just ask them, word for word, "do you want to go on a date sometime?" It's no more anxiety-inducing than anything else, and you don't have to do any weird pick up artist stuff.
If they are actually interested in you, they'll say yes.
I don’t like approaching strangers I fucking hate it in fact I’ve been forced to do it my whole life and it literally just feels like work,but I’ve done that plenty of times I always had to be fucking wasted to do it and I just can’t be fucked to drink anymore. There are also other factors that just make men unattractive like being very depressed and being unable to gain employment or hold steady employment. Anyways these are my personal issues other people will probably have different ones.
I’m aware all of this is just in my head but so fucking what lots of people have issues that are just in their heads and still get taken seriously whatever 🤷♂️
