Hi there Bri and welcome to the forum. I think you’re going to really like it here 
One thing about your situation that really strikes a chord with me and I want to EMPHASIZE for any guys reading this is how you are waiting for him to make the first move. A girl can really like a guy, but as it is in our societal conditioning if the guy doesn’t make that move the girl is willing to forgo the entire relationship because the man didn’t do what was expected. It’s really that simple guys. Here’s another lady saying it and yet I read everyday how guys on here are looking to mones to have them do all the work. Some guys actually think by wearing mones the girls will initiate the conversation. Sorry guys, from the mouth of another babe, NOT happening.
You see Bri I know the situation your in because I am that guy, well I used to be anyway. Growing up I would have the most beautiful woman surrounding me. I was super lucky that way always. I am amazingly charismatic and yet I could talk with anyone, especially the ladies. Where I fell short is that a woman could practically offer herself up to me on a bed of roses completely naked and I’d be to blind to see it. We actually have a term for it here: MPB - Male Pattern Blindness (Scroll over the word for the glossary). I doubly feel for the guys who are shy too.
I believe that IO would really work well for you so that you are able to talk a little bit more. One thing I suggest is to discover what your friend is interested in. Even if there is a moment of silence, think of that as a good sign. Most people take silence as meaning nothing in common. With you and him already establishing a friendship, I would suffice it to say that your silence is a testament to your amazing friendship. It just means you guys could sit there completely silent and be OK.
That’s AWESOME! Lets say he brings something up and you ask questions about, keep asking more questions.
I know you’re like but what questions? Well that’s the thing and I’m going to teach you some NLP (Neuro-Linguistic-Programming) which is a form of hypnosis. No silly you’re not going to make him quack like a duck, unless that’s your thing
. What you do is ask him about something he brings up (for example lets say he likes Space Exploration). You say to him really, so what makes Space Exploration so fascinating for you? You’re getting him to talk about his passion and he will. Every once in a while shake your head and lean in a little as if you’re on his every word. Listen intently to the words he says. He will use words that are revealing to you and in some circles they are called TRANCE words.
OMG space exploration is just so amazing especially when they discover a new world. Just imagine one day we could actually live on an entire other planet. The possibilities are just endless and we could travel anywhere. It would be so cool if I could go to Florida to watch a Shuttle launch.
I italicized and changed the color of some of the keywords he might use. Now you have EVERYTHING you need to have to have an amazing conversation.
WOW that really is so amazing about you. It’s really why I love being with you and sharing our experiences. I would so love to be with you and travel to Florida and just discovering everything about the possibilities there. I imagine we’d have so much fun together.
What I did was used the same words he did in a conversation back with him. It might seem weird, but baby it works wonders
. It’s like a deep connection and by doing this you will never run out of things to say. Also notice in green I used words and phrases that have the two of you together. You’re essentially using words to give him thoughts of you and him together.
I’m telling you this because you mentioned you had trouble with social skills. Regardless of what or how you chose to go about it there is enough knowledge to help you overcome this.
Now onto the mones. I’ve already said IO so I would also add some ISexi as my fellow forum friends have also suggested. The difference between A and B is A is the Sexy temptress who is in full control of the situation. She is the ALPHA leader of the pack of her friends. B is the girl next door type, sexy sweet and girly girl. You should match it to your personality and in your situation I’d say you are a B type of girl.
With that said I’ll be sending your GC to your email sometime later today. Welcome t the forum and if you would please select the best answer to let others in the forum know what to strive for. Whatever happens I wish you the very best of luck Bri. Keep at it gurl
