You're right I was out of line with that comment. I'm just saying what a lot of people want to tell the loser guys. Personally I think people would really like to say to guys like the OP. I actually have more to say on this thread but I'm stuck on my mobile right now.

Those guys would have no reason to be on a relationships forum.

Most men probably get rejected more than they succeed. You may run into a women who's married, has a boyfriend, on vacation etc.. Those are all rejections but you have to keep moving forward believing in yourself. You also learn to play the percentages meaning if you talk to 10 women then you might get 2 to 3 phone numbers or dates.

Sometimes I go out I may get 3 numbers then I could go a month without getting another number but I still keep trying cause I believe in myself.

I'm a decent looking guy, i work out a lot and am in good shape, but i'm no movie star or model. When i was younger, i used to go for very pretty women. I got shot down left and right, but i guess that is to be expected when you go for gorgeous women all the time.

These days, i go after average looking women, with less-than-perfect bodies. I don't even bother approaching the prettier-than-average women anymore. I still get shot down all the time, but it's not because the women i pursue are out of my league.

So what about the rest of you who get shot down a lot... do you have trouble getting the ladies because you go after above-average looking women? Or do you just have trouble with ladies regardless of their looks?
Who cares if you get rejected a lot. All it takes is one Yes. There is no league system.

How tall are you and what is your ethnicity?

Do you try to get to know them?

I get rejected over 1,000 a year, so what?

I am not even Caucasian nor I am over 6'0".

Approaching the most attractive woman in any environment, is a win win situation for guys, becasue it says that you value yourself and are confident. Even if she ends up rejecting you and you take it in stride, your chances with other women who are around are now much better, becasue you demonstrated that you think hihgly of yourself. It works like a charm.
That's right. Don't assume things. Go for every opportunity if you got the time and its fun.

not that social, don't have many friends mainly due to High-Functioning Autism, Asperger Syndrome, so not many opportunities to meet new people

The most important part about picking up a woman is not giving a **** what she thinks or wants. Just be you be direct. No bull**** lines no compliments just say hi have a superficial conversation and ask her if she wants to get out the hell out of this ****ty bar.

Most of acceptance and rejection upon approaching gals is out of your control guys, unless your being an obvious moron. Approach with i don't care attitude and don't place your value on acceptance or rejection. Understand that the first approach is much like this.
