NSV - I got turned down today! :-)

Seriously, it's a really big NSV!

I've been divorced for almost 4 years now. Hating the way I looked/look really eliminates the ability to ask someone out on a date. I've found it very convenient to hide behind the "I'm a single dad with no time to date" curtain. Really it was just an insanely low opinion on how I look... which I still really struggle with.

Anyways, the NSV I'de like to share with y'all. I asked a lady to dinner after we made small talk outside a shop. She respectfully declined but I'm sure she was surprised to see how happy I was when she did.....

Well Done. That is great.
Now all you need to do is keep doing it until someone says yes

Man, this is an awesome victory. Celebrating not the idea of some random woman's approval, but rather the fact that you have enough confidence in yourself to take action in the first place. That's definitely a NSV very worthy of celebration!

A strong self image is radically life changing.

Good for you.:) I don't have a lot of confidence to approach guys, so really impressed with you stepping out, being bold and asking the lady out. That's awesome:)
