Another 'OK' night. Went out with my wing who I haven't seen for ages.

First place we hit is the Salsa bar.....where I did fuck-all. Was feeling too intimidated by the venue, and not relaxed enough.

So after a while we head on to Proud, and things go a little better.

Rather than posting the details of interactions, I'll summarise what I learnt from this evening:

1) Hesitation is fatal. I had ANOTHER scenario where a girl was into me (she wouldn't let me go!) and I failed to escalate. An hour later she was in the arms of another guy.

2) Still not doing enough approaches & taking more risks. No risk, no reward - simple as that.

So as you can see, these seem to be recurring sticking points.

Sooner or later (but preferably sooner) I am going to have to take a MASSIVE step outside of my comfort zone.

Tomorrow: Essex. Stay tuned....
