Dating tip: I once made a comment that I'd rather go three rounds against a super heavyweight than ask a woman out on a date.

I felt it took more courage just to approach a lady for whom I had an attraction than risk taking a tremendous pounding in the ring.

The fact is, 95% of all men are so intimated by a beautiful woman or women in general that they rationalize themselves into acute paralysis.

In fact, what takes more courage? To just be yourself and simply ask the lady if you could join her for just a few minites... or to watch her leave with some butt ugly goofuss who you know your are far better than for her AND to face yourself in the mirror the next morning and the next and the next knowing that all you had to do is ask.

Another fact, since 95% of men fear approaching a woman, that means 94.99999999% of men have taken themselves out of the competition for this lady ... leaving the field open just for you and that doofuss.

But, since you're better than that doofuss, guess what? She will likely be thrilled that YOU approached her with your warm, self-effacing, good heart instead of all the hitters in the room who don't care squat about her other than how they can use her as an easy-win trophy.

It is good to fear approaching women. It;'s really called respect!
And, yes! It does take some courage. That's because, to all of us, the overall prize is so worthwhile. Isn't that great!!

One more thing, why do you think this lady positioned herself to be found and noticed and cherished? That's a clue.

I find it sad to know, as I do, that so many great relationships die before they even get started with a simple, honest "Hello"
