Just wanted to jot down one more thing that's been happening to me lately. Eye contact is something that's really hard for me, especially with strangers. So for a while I walked with my eyes looking down, which I didn't want to do but the anxiety was too much. Lately my body language has been a lot more confident and I'll just kind of have a soft gaze looking ahead, not really putting my attention on anyone. I still have that anxiety, but I'm trying to overcome it. Anyway I've been noticing in my peripheral vision a lot of girls checking me out. Today I was walking to a building and I noticed a group of girls with some guys. As soon as I was close to them the girls kind of stopped talking and looked my way, which was a little nerve wracking for me. I'm not really a guy that enjoys being the center of attention, but lately I expect girls to do these things.
The thing is in the past I would try to dismiss it or figure out why. Now I just roll with it because I'm accepting that I am a sexy guy haha. I mean why make things difficult? I think growing up I had a tendency to undersell myself and when a girl had interest in me I just doubted myself. Which probably came across as me being uninterested. Typical low self esteem problem. I've seen guys that were just so full of themselves and I guess I was just the exact opposite, too humble.
