I've seen the film, and good example.

I'm not too worried about rejection at the moment. From where I'm at now, managing to approach seems like a success in itself, so what happens after that doesn't seem to matter too much.

I've not made any emotional investment in the girl at that point so what's lost?...nothing.

Times when I've been gutted by rejection is when I've made an emotional investment in the girl before even asking her out. This has happened to me a few times at work. I think I came across as needy and desperate.

This is why I got interested in learning PU - to be better able to find out quickly if a girl is interested and if not move on to the next one. That was the objective anyway.

But realising now that getting there involves a lot of soul searching and facing harsh truths, self-acceptance, etc. It's much deeper than I expected.

I suppose it's manning up. Which is no bad thing whether or not it gets girls.
