Gents: the past week my life has taken a turn for the worst. I found out a girl that I dated for a year (HB9), who I eventually broke up with about three weeks ago, starting dating other people. I know what you're thinking..."you broke up with her, why do you care?". Great question! I wish I knew the answer myself! However, I can't get this girl out of my head and she is not letting me back into her life.
The main purpose for starting this thread is so that I can review and look back at my progress over time. I'm starting with No Contact on my ex (currently on day 3), and will also start to journal my approaches and self improvement as I rebuild myself. I started posting in the No Contact Challenge thread but figured I'd like to have everything in one place.
A little about me: I have a lot going for me...Amazing job for my age (31) where I make over $300K. I recently moved a couple thousand miles from my hometown to southern California for work (part of the reason I ended the relationship as she stayed back home, but wanted badly to move with me), I drive a BMW and a Range Rover, I have Master's degree. Very athletic body and in shape. I'd say I'm at least average to above average in looks as I've dated a lot of beautiful women.
The above paragraph is by no means meant for me to brag on myself, it is for me to point out that I have so much going for me, yet this girl has turned me into a complete p***y. If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone.
I think the primary issue that separates me from getting any girl I want is my approach anxiety. I have been somewhat shy all my life when it comes to approaches. Once I already know a girl I have no problem laying game, but it seems like I need to be drinking to get the courage to approach. The challenging part is, I need to drink enough to get relaxed and get the courage, but if I drink too much then I'm not effective. My and my friends like to call it the two drink window haha. My approach anxiety didn't really impact me much in my hometown because I already knew so many people that I could find ways to start conversations, but now that I moved somewhere where I don't really know anyone, the approach is crucial.
In order to improve my approach anxiety, I'm going to be performing the challenges from this thread:

I'm too late to join that competition, but I'm going to start with week 1 this week, which is to approach and compliment 12 strangers. The compliments can't be anything on body parts or beauty and at least 8 of the 12 have to be at least HB5s.
After I post this I'm going to copy my first few posts from the No Contact Challenge thread to get everything in one place so you can see what I've been dealing with in regards to my ex.
I welcome all comments, questions, advice, criticisms, etc.
Wish my luck bros, my journey starts now!
