I said those things. But at the time, I was in a bitter place. Now, my attitude with women is improving and I let some of the bitterness go.

I concur. I would also refrain from asking them for advice on anything ever again.

And they can get dates with women and sleep with them with ease. I don't get it.

All the guys that I dated were people I worked with, went to school with, or met through friends. Take the pressure off yourself. Just relax and don't think about asking women out or dating. Just get to know people. If there is chemistry there - let it develop on it's own. If you have chemistry with someone, a lot of the time you won't have to ask her out - you'll just end up sort of asking each other out.

But BE NICE to these women - especially if you end up taking them out.
Some people, though, just have very little luck meeting women through happenstance and everyday life, and for those people, learning to cold approach is a useful and perhaps necessary skill to have. I for one would find it difficult to develop a relationship under the circumstances you mentioned, first because most of the social activities you do in that context (volunteering, concerts, etc) are with tons of people, and I feel nervous approaching in those contexts compared to a cold approach in a quiet place with few people around. Also, meeting women when volunteering or at school leave less time or opportunity for personal discussion or flirting, since things should be kept professional (same goes with meeting a potential partner at work, this is assuming it isn't awkward there already).

You missed my point. He needs to walk before he can fly. I'm not talking about flirting. I'm talking about simply talking with out the goal of a date. And I'm not sure why meeting women when volunteering or through school would leave less time or opportunity for personal discussion. How much time do you need? Why do you need to be professional? Can't you just be personable?
