For me, it was literally managing to do the one step they failed to make.
Now, I have more acquaintances than I can count, and even some women friends. Yes, I am still an unkissed 30yo loser, but I am no longer at 0, and I know that the change is possible.
But bloody hell, it took 25 years to get there. The first step is unironically a literal hell.
