Hi, I'm 22 years old and am focussing on personality development for attracting women. I would like to know how I can break my shell of shyness while talking with good looking women. Often, I blush or let my huge inferiority complex trample over me, like "she's too good for me" kind of thought. This really needs to change if I'm serious in transforming into a man from an adolescent. Any tips on how I can give up on this attitude.
No, that's the problem. You see, I'm way too shy picking up a conversation with women.
With guys, I have no problem. I could talk often interesting issues with men for hours on end. With women, at most I can squeak out a couple words. Why I've grown up this way, only god knows. But it isn't too late to change. How do I begin to change, that's what I want to know. How should I go about developing a different mindset. Show me the first stepping stone.

You are NEVER around any women EVER???????
I am not asking if you are "seeing" women as in dating them. I am asking if you "see" women nearby during the day, at school or work.

That's right. I literally grew up in complete isolation when it comes to women. My parents were Isolationist and gave me zero freedom to talk with women outside my family. I've recently moved away, and am exposed to this new facet of meeting women outside my family. I don't know how to handle the situation in casual scenarios. The only women I know and talk with are mom, my cousins, and aunts.
No...thats how you learn to do it. I too was once a shy and humble guy. Still am. But I can walk up and talk to anyone at anytime with no problemo. All they are is people. Just do it. It won't take long to build some confidence and before you know it...you can talk to anyone without giving it a second thought.

So I just go ahead and talk. I don't want to offend the other person, that's what I'm afraid of. I wont use swears, that's for sure. But men and women interpret certain phrases differently.

Ok, wow.
Well, the first thing I would advise is to practice talking to women you don't know in short, benign interactions with a specified ending, i.e. at the checkout counter.
For example, the next time you buy something at a store, try to get a female checkout clerk.
While she is ringing up your stuff, ask, "Has it been busy today?" Let her answer, then as you leave, say, "Well, have a great day!"
That's it.
Just do this every time you go out. It's quick and easy. The interaction is over when your transaction is over so there doesn't need to be any pressure.
