think of it from the girl's point of view. if you were approached by a nervous, fidgety, mumbling guy, would YOU want to go out with him?
or
would you go out with a guy, that even though he may not be the best looking or whatever, is totally calm and confident, and makes you feel at ease because he is so natural around you?
remind yourself that EVERYONE has problems. even hot girls. we are all human.

another thing.
remember that scene in the neverending story where bastian is shouting for atreyu to be confident when he passes through the first sphinx gate to get to the southern oracle?
well its nothing like that.
BUT, that scene IS an effective metaphor. the first guy with the fancy armor that gets blasted, goes to show, all the cool clothes, good looks, money, gimmicks, dont do shit if you really think lowly of yourself.
time to hit the shaolin temple and start working on some self esteem.
when you realize your self-worth the way conan did, yet you still understand the difference between confidence and conceit, it will be time for you to leave the temple.

This really made me smile. You apparently know me well enough to use all the correct inspirational metaphors. :-)
I don't think I'm a lost cause...I really think I'm building to something...what it is, I don't know yet. I do think the next girl that catches my interest might receive a slightly different approach than I usually give. You can bet that I'll write about it when it happens.
if she flakes on you constantly or is only nice to you half the time, she is playing you. HARD. she just wants to see how far she can use you. ditch her fast. there are a billion others in this world.
OMG THANK YOU! i mean, i kinda knew it already, just needed someone like JT to actually say it.

As for my lovelife, though, I'm afraid if lack of confidence is the dealbreaker then my deal done be broken. :- )
