Default Courage & Self Confidence

So here's a question....lets say you're out some where by yourself, and you see this incredibly drop dead beautiful woman who's by herself, and appears to be single, and the opportunity arises where you could actually talk to her.

How many of you would have the courage and confidence to go up and start a discussion with her?

I ask because I had this conversation the other day with someone, who said they find it much more difficult to talk to girls who are gorgeous, than it is to talk to girls that are just "cute."

Same with the girls on the forum...if you saw a guy you thought was hot, would you randomly be able to go up to them and strike up a conversation?

I'm curious to hear some thoughts. Discuss!

I can do it. I just don't expect anything from it which makes it easier. I'll just talk, not hit on her or anything.

i actually did once. i was with my friend trying to find a book at borders when my greatest love since high school of all time walked in. i saw her right then and there, recognized her from the opposite side of the store and knew exactly who she was. we have never met.

asked myself--well Adam you either do it or you don't. got the golden balls of steel, put my book away and walked up, introduced myself, shook her hand and began talking. i was with a friend. she was with a friend. completely best moment you could have dreamed for.

i could have gotten to know her. i didn't. instead, i said "take care" and walked away without ever looking bad. do i regret it? yes. for me it was more of a sign from God that he has given me the chance to say my farewell and put it to rest.

doesn't sound like much from this story. sounds like something typical or coincidental. but there's a whole big story behind it that makes it quite compelling. just take my word for it. you are better off making a fool of yourself than doing nothing at all because we all know emotions are never heard or seen. keeping them inside will never lead to anything.
