Is there any way I can get rid of the fear of approaching girls?

Ah, yes. A fellow introverted chap like myself. Indeed, I do ponder these questions on a daily basis. I posit that men who are successful with women have good genetics (optimum body physiology and resilient neurophysiology, desirable somatotype (Mesomorph), optimum male hormonal patterns (Low Cortisol, Higher Testosterone), and/or recieve leverage from the media. For example, African American males are perceived by society/media as genitally well-endowed, confident, and athletic. No matter how untrue these assumptions may be, these archetypal, and temperamental traits are ascribed to a group of people ( In this case, African American Males), and permeate throughout American culture. Perhaps these men that are successful with women naturally have a sanguine or choleric temperament; thus allowing them to easily arouse interest. I do believe that temperament can be altered, but it will take a good amount of work to change it. But to sum it up in a nutshell, I suppose that men who are naturally successful with women express the archetypal features (Physical, emotional, and mental) that are desired in males and have leverage from media/society.


I found this link about how males with lower levels of Cortisol, and higher levels of testosterone are more likely to be found attractive by the opposite sex. This makes sense, however, I could be wrong; Huffington post isn't the most reliable source of information. Good luck on your journey in improving your skills at getting girls.

Go over to someone else's robot and ask, "How are you two doing?" (Assuming it's women working on one.) Watch the other guys, see if they're chatting with women, and if so, watch how they go about it.

Alright, so when we're working on the robot, everyone usually specializes in one or two areas. There are programmers, CADers, people who monitor the mechanics of the robot, people who monitor the electronics of the robot, people who arrange donations from companies to get money to support the team, etc. I guess you could chat up some of the girls if the topic is related to robotics. When we start working on the robot, everyone has to be serious and dedicate all of their time and mental effort on contributing to the construction of the robot. After all, we are going to be entering into the FTC robotics tournament later this year.
