Honestly, it's the hardest thing and the simplest thing. When you get into a slump, you tend to get down on yourself and becomes self perpetrating.

I've had two serious relationships with women who I'm sure people said were way, way, way out of my league. One was off and on for 20 years & the other was just for a summer. I'm middle class and I know I'm not every woman's ideal in looks. If I'm really being honest with myself about I landed both of them, I just stepped up in person and told them I was interested in knowing them more after a short conversation, got the number and left on a high note. I didn't neg anyone. I didn't hang around until closing time. I know it sounds stupid, but it was that simple.
