New to the group and conversation. I'm struggling with dating and meeting women. I'm not very comfortable cold approaching and nothing really develops from IRL or OLD interactions. I know my personality type gets in my way, I'm more serious, analytical and hate small talk. I'm definitely more neurodivergant and struggle to relate to the average person, men and women...

My ultimate goal is to find a great partner and meaningful relationship. But obviously I can't get there without playing the numbers game and actually approaching, connecting and going on dates.

But I'm wondering if seduction techniques are a good start for a serious relationship. Reading thru some off the posts, I feel like I'd have to compromise aspects of my personality and values to play the game. Adopt habits, interests and converse in a way that I'd never pursue if I wasn't trying to engage women.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Looking for feed back from people that have found a deep and meaningful connection and life partner using these techniques.

Thanks in advance!
