I had been fed the personality lies my entire life and led into delusion because I thought I was a nice person. I also viewed myself as more physically attractive than I actually was. They weren't really 'approaches', the girls I had liked had been in my classes at school for a while before I developed interest in them. I remember one of the girls quite vividly, and I had friends who knew her very well. She had liked a few other guys in my classes and I remember being told this by my friends. I tried to put two and two together "what made her like these guys so much" and the only thing I could infer from that was that they were more 'sporty' and 'confident' than me. I was ridiculously uninformed and stupid back then, but that occurred back when I was 13 way before I had my redpill phase.
