Best books for increasing confidence/picking up women for a shy male college student?

Lots of the "pickup artist" style books seem to be geared more towards men in their late 20s to mid-30s, so they often arent really applicable to my situation. What are some good books for a college-age guy that has pretty much no experience with girls and who is extremely lacking in confidence and knowing what to do to pickup/hook-up with girls?Best books for increasing confidence/picking up women for a shy male college student?
No.



You gain confidence by trying. Go get dissed. Go get rejected. Be nervous the first time, but the next 100 times, you won't be.



I'll guarantee that you will be accepted 1/10 times if not maybe less. But nobody can boost your confidence except yourself.



Don't be afraid of being rejected, learn from it and do better next time.

You're not going to increase your confidence and pick-up skills by reading a book.



The books are gimmicks that pick-up artists put their real-life experiences into and sell in order to make money.



Do you think those writers - the pickup artists - had books to reference when they were starting to pick up women? They were the men who weren't afraid to screw up, and just went after the girls they liked. After a while, they learned what worked and what didn't work from experience and extrapolation, and they developed a routine.



My advice? You're only as shy or confident as you want yourself to be. Don't listen to personality tests that say you're introverted and have no chance of becoming socially active. You make who you are, not others.



Forget the gimmick books. Get out there and ask a girl you like out. So what if she turns you down? If she turns you down now, it doesn't mean that she would have accepted at some other point in time. Are you going to become depressed because someone you like turned you down? Don't. Just because one person isn't interested in having a sexual relationship with you doesn't mean that you are worse than any other man. Move on, and keep asking. Eventually, the process of asking people out will become more fluid as you do it over and over again.



Practice makes perfect, and dating is no exception.
