“Approach Anxiety”

To me, there are two different types - orange and yellow. I relate all of this stuff to the Chakras, which are different levels of consciousness that we are all developing. Orange is the second chakra and yellow is the third, in the solar-plexus.

Orange is the wussy kind of approach anxiety, he is violating the “natural laws” of the Orange Chakra.. like the guy who needs a woman to behave in certain ways to maintain his false-pride ego issues (which are constantly wavering between illusions of grandeur and insecurity).

His thoughts are consumed with social status comparisons (jealousy), causing butterflies in the stomach, which is really just a signal from his sacral (orange) chakra telling him to let go of it all, and shift his consciousness out of his head and back into his Heart.

Yellow is the kind of “approach anxiety” that I often get. It is when you can tell that if you approach a particular girl, she will most likely take every opportunity she has to energy vamp the fuck out of you, because her consciousness is still at the 4 main energy vampire levels (PoorMe, Aloof, Interrogator, and intimidator). So your intuition goes, “Don’t talk to her, she’s too insecure and the interaction won’t be pleasant”. Or maybe the interaction will be boring, or shallow, or awkward, etc.

I get this signal for a high enough percentage of girls, but I often approach them anyway because it’s fun for me to play with people, and to test out my intuitions. I’m also pretty decent at shielding myself from any vampings, plus I like developing myself on that level.

Approaching even the snootiest women can be a lot of fun, provided you take nothing personally (see orange). They just have so much fear in them that after a while, you really start feeling drained because you have to always stay one step ahead of them and troubleshoot their emotions as you are vibing with them.

A classic example would be of an aloof girl who thinks you’re just a player who wants to fuck her and dump her, and can’t get her head around this fear. And the whole time you want to reassure her that you’re not just playing her - sometimes you can get through to them, but in many cases you cannot. They don’t trust themselves enough to loosen up.

As we gain experience, we can become quite accurate at detecting our “type”. Our intuition can become very, very accurate when it comes to knowing if we will like a particular woman or not. The problem is you can’t really teach this to people because they MUST let go of ALL insecurity before they can ever hope to truly develop their intuitions on this level.

I know this because I’ve seen soooo many students over the years try to tell me that “she’s a bitch!” and when I approach her from a different, less insecure energy, the girl is very receptive and we have a great time getting to know each other. Then I turn back to my stunned student, who is now blushing and thinks I have magical powers and special secrets about women that I won’t share with him. Like he thinks I whispered some sort of secret “chick code” in her ear, causing her to be nice. But the only “code” was that I approached her with very different energy than my student did.

Anyway, IG (inner game) strikes again. Those seem to be the main two polar opposites in approach anxiety. There is insecurity-based (orange) approach anxiety, and then at the other end of the scale, you are left with intuition-based approach anxiety, which isn’t really “anxiety” at all, but refined intuition.

I just finished reading Pavlina’s article about the levels of consciousness, and realistically, one cannot even HOPE to let go of all approach anxiety until they reach the level I’m currently working on (I am pretty solid in the LOVE stage, and catching nice glimpses of the JOY stage, but haven’t been able to sustain myself on that level yet. I’ve been working with the LOVE stage for about 2 years now.

Many “Blessings” to you all, which are neutral energetic light packets that I am sending you that you can make use of no matter where you are on your journey, but realistically you’ll think this is pure BS-talk until you hit the COURAGE level ;)

    Ya I’m definitely at WILLINGNESS on that consciousness scale. Sick post though. I also went on that page and told Pavlina that if he wants to give out some real good relationship advice, he ought to check your website out. :]

    Stephane,

    I LOOOOVE your explanation using the chakras here. When I progressed out of my “please validate me because you have jiggly boobs just like the ones I saw on the TeeVee and all my friends will think I’m cool even though you’re a crazy coked up cookball” phase where orange approach anxiety was pretty much ever present, I encountered what I came to just call “my intuition” or “Approach Apathy”. I would look at a girl and would either almost unconsciously approach her before I even knew what I was doing (or she’d approach me) if I felt we connected or alternately, get a feeling like I ate some underripe bananas and get a little unpleasant jolt right in the center of my solar plexus. It even FEELS yellow. I certainly don’t consider that kind of approach anxiety a bad thing and in fact, think it’s a wonderful natural defense mechanism.

    Keep up the great writing brotha. I recommend you all the time.
