Why wait for her to lead? I mean, it's nice if the girl initiates now and then but most want the man to go for it.

Stop that. You're the man. Not her.

I know this. I just have a problem with nerves, I think. This girl in particular called me out before we did anything to a mutual friend as being 'scared'.

So just in the middle of awkward silence I should move towards her and kiss?

Don't let there be an awkward silence man. Kiss her right after you're done talking.

It's harder than you guys make it sound, I'm telling you. I always say go in my head then I just pause. Followed by awkward silence and me rubbing my face alot. Then her smiling and starting up another subject.

Tell your head to STFU and just go for it. You've gotta be confident.

Joey, being with a new girl is the scariest thing in the world, and the most exciting.

Let the excitement take you over, not the fear.

We can't make the move for you, you gotta do it yourself bud.

Ooh ****, I know. Balls up and all that good stuff. Scary shit.

Thanks though, fellas.

I think having confidence in myself would be way easier if I was naturally Awesome or had just gone through all the hard work that buck has been putting into a healthy life style. I don't have much to be confident about. But I guess that is just on me.

This.

Confidence is all in your head.

Hey dude...just try it once. See what happens.

I'm betting she'll like it. I'm almost 100% positive she will.

Along the lines of confidence. If the girl is into it, it won't take much to initiate something. Try touching her in different places (don't go straight for the cooter) and see how she reacts. You'll know whether she's into it.

Confidence isn't something cooler is going to get by reading your posts on this board or just flipping a switch. It's easy to say it's easy when you have said confidence, but when you don't it's pure hell.
