The One Who ALMOST Got Away
As any desperate enough guy can tell you, developing “crushes” on beautiful women doesn’t take long when you hadn’t had any in a long while (or in my case, ever).
For me, that crush was on the hottest girl in our dorm - GOOD FREAKIN` JOB, BRAIN!
So when I was invited to a dorm party that I knew she would attend it didn’t take long for me to accept the offer.
I decided that I’ll be rocking one of the outfits that my friend picked out for me but I’ll be honest, despite having all sorts of NSFW fantasies about this girl as the party day got closer I didn’t really expect much.
I mean I was still pretty shy and very nerdy and she was… well, SHE.
So imagine my dumb-founded face, trying to figure what the hell is happening when the night of the party arrived and it was HER asking ME to go onto the dancefloor with her!
Is this some elaborate prank the whole dorm is playing on me?! If I say Yes, will everyone start laughing and shouting “oh my god, he actually fell for it. What an idiot Hahahaha!”
(Did I mention my low self-esteem at the time?)
Anyway,
I actually refused the first time but she persisted and after seeing her turn down other guys (I mean have you seen this girl?! Of course there were other guys trying to get into her pants!), I gave in and went to dance with her.
You should’ve seen my goofy face!
I promise you, at that moment I felt like the happiest man in the world!
We ended up making out that night and… that’s about it. For the time being.
But,
When you go from being looked-through and ignored by women despite how hard you try to having one of the most attractive women you’ve ever met show the initiative, take the first step and even persist to get with you.
Well, let’s just say its one of those moments when your brain starts re-thinking your whole life.
And you know what the difference was between that night and all the other nights that happened before it?
No, it was not some elaborate NLP routine or new kino technique.
I simply changed my image, how I dressed, how I presented myself to the world.
After that night understanding image, style became a passion for me, almost an obsession.
I wanted to learn and understand how something as simple as the clothes we wear can so tremendously affect the way we are seen and perceived by others, the way we are treated.
