Good thing.
Basically; exposure therapy, for example, if you spend 8 hours a day for a year doing woodwork, think you'll be pretty good at woodwork by the end of the year? what if you spent 8 hours a day talking to girls? taking them on dates? having relationships? losing relationships? getting new ones? think you'd get the hang of it?
Once you can talk to girls properly and know how to filter out the crazies/feminists/woke/normies, try to meet girls at places of common interest, that way you'll likely meet someone similar to you, who you will get on better with. I'm going to comic con again in a week or two, might start going to more around the country.
Personally i take things kinda slow, now days, if you meet someone good you can usually tell right away but it's worthwhile just getting to know people a bit beforehand. make sure you are compatible on important points.
Getting laid and getting girlfriends certainly cheers me up but be prepared for the heartbreak and the drama.
Getting happy, that's the harder part, gotta do some personal development. stay away from arseholes, get a stable income and stable living situation, ideally alone. Say yes to more experiences that come your way, BUT prepare for them properly then you will have a good time. I had shit times because i went into situations not knowing how to do anything and let stupid arseholes peer pressure me into doing things i knew were stupid and shit and which i knew i wasn't prepared for.
For me, touching grass is a big help. going camping. getting back out to the woods. realising that i can wild camp and survive without a house or anything was a real boost.
