Alcohol

I cannot speak for everyone, but I'd have to say that, for me, alcohol works the best, aside from medications like pain killers (such as Vicodin or Tramadol). Drugs like Ativan and other pills made to reduce stress have done nothing for me perhaps because I have 0 stress in most situations to begin with. Sadly, I can't really take pain killers or drink because I'm taking antipsychotics and antidepressants. Alcohol inhibits the part of the brain that inhibits you from acting in ways you wouldn't normally act; it can help, but it heavily depends on what kinda person you are. It can make your situation worse if you aren't aware of how you react to it. If you can handle drinking and if it doesn't turn you into an idiot, then go for it. I tend to like drinks with rum the most. I agree, a little is effective and considering how many people drink alcohol for similar reasons and how common phrases like Dutch courage are shows how effective alchohol is.

Research essays. My procrastination. This is kind of related to what you said, wasting time on the internet.

Just relax and talk to her tommorrow. Forget about today. The more you fuss over something the worse you will act, try to focus on the project you have to do.

That is silly I mean the content on it was not really that risque to begin with. The name makes it sound worse than it is. yeah, maybe we should have called it 'private' instead of 'adult'. or private parts. ;D

I get anxiety sometimes when I am walking down busy streets by myself however If I am feeling anxious I just try to rationalise it, why am I afraid, is that a good enough reason to be afraid etc.

As far as I see it for a man to be shy when it comes to attracting women is the biggest put off, many otherwise fine men wouldn't get noticed or never have the confidence to approach a woman. I have seen men do so much better with women simply because they know how to act and what to say so I agree OP it sucks being a shy male I know.

Hey Thomas! I would love to know how you overcame your shyness. This, how did you do it?

I missed out also on many oppurtunities but at least I had some great friends (and still have them) in secondary school which made life much better however I am quite inexperienced for my age (21) and in college I never really made any great friends or people who I will likely stay in contact with and now I feel very immature in some ways compared to everybody.

I guess the only way I would ever find a girlfriend is if she asked me out. I think that does happen to some men. Everything is cool with this woman, I'm enjoying it. It's just the crappy gossip at work that gets on my nerves. It rarely happens though, say what you want about society but generally it's up to the man to ask the woman out and you will have to get the courage up to ask her out.

Obviously the answer is 'yes' but I think if I asked her she wouldn't be pleased. And our 'friendship' would be over. Yesterday she mentioned playing golf again, seemed real keen on that. But that's just friends isn't it ? She never mentioned anything else. I think if she wanted anything else she would have said something. My brother said 'you've got to be able to read the signals' - I just didn't see any yesterday. Nothing blantant anyway. She kept she how much she was enjoying the golf and I said, shall we do this again ?' - she said 'yes' - and then when we parted she said,' we'll play again real soon' So I want to keep this friendship going, I don't really want to go 2 months without seeing her again. I don't think you can have it both ways. You are either content with having her only as a friend and nothing else or you aren't. This is the problem with trying to get in through the friendship route. It nearly never works. A girl will friend zone you and that is it. No chance with romance with them forever and you end up wasting huge amounts of time on someone who doesn't return your affections. Seriously, I think you should work on finding dates with other girls and not put so much mental energy into this girl. Are you asking any other girls out for dates? I agree completely with Missklew and think she hit the nail on the head. You seem like you really like her and deep down are not content with just being a friend her so I think you really should just ask her out on a date. If she says no then move onto other women (and if advice I have seen online is anything to go by just cut her out of your life).

It's not really the cell phone's fault though, lol. How do you know she changed her number? Also if she did change it and didn't bother to tell you, then it's a sign that you should move on. There's no point trying to keep calling her. It sounds like moving on would be the best thing to do also.

I wouldn't really say celebrities only since this trait I have seen in a few people in RL and a few celebrities. Ambition, ambitious people seem to succeed at a lot of things and never make excuses for their failures. If I was to pick a celebrity who I admire for their ambition it would be Arnold Schwarzenegger, look past his funny accent and he has been one of the most successful film stars of the 80's and 90's, has won a bodybuilding competition numerous times, has been elected to government (I don't know how his career went since I didn't follow it), has started a construction business, you don't have to agree with what he does but he has led an impressive life.
