So, guys, Derek, more placeboard 8.com. Today we're going to be talking about why you shouldn't feel awkward going out alone.

So when you are first getting into pickup, PUA, whatever the fuck you want to call it, I don't know what it goes by nowadays, to be honest.

I guess it's kind of a joke when you refer to it as PUA. It's hard to take

it seriously. At the end of the day, though, it is meeting women and building a high-quality

dating life. How do you not feel awkward going out alone? You're not always going to have friends

who want to go out, especially if you're doing this very, very often. Sometimes it's even more time efficient for you to go on your own.

So you don't have to, you know, figure out rides.

You don't have to figure out who's the fucking designated driver.

You don't have to be the DED for your friends.

Ideally, you would have friends to go out with because it's a lot more fun.

But there are going to be the nights where not everyone is available,

where some people aren't available and you end up like you're trying to put in fucking work

and you need to go out by yourself.

And this is what I recommend doing when you first start.

I don't recommend, well, first off, once you get good of this, you can integrate this into

your life rather than set aside giant blocks of time for approaching

or uh you know like sarging or whatever the fuck it goes by now but um you still have to go through

that uh throw yourself in the fire phase where you do absurd amounts of exposure therapy to get

to the point where you can even integrate this into your life

in an efficient way where you can at the drop of a hat go approach chicks that you see during

your errands during your everyday activities without having to dedicate the blocks of time to

you know going and approaching fucking 20 plus girls in a night or whatever it is you're doing
