Can we make a list of social freedom exercises?

Inner Game :snoo_dealwithit:

That would be great.

Social freedom exercises are all kinds of exercises, which force you to get out of the comfort zone to eventually become socially free - this would include the ability to talk to the opposite sex without anxiety in any situation.

You may post provocative stuff as long as it is not about harassing other other people.

Please explain yourself, if you are against social freedom exercises or think, that they are not useful.

I will be downvoted but fuck it.

I found that the best exercises are those which provokes a conflict. Why? Because lots of guys in the community are afraid of conflicts, in other words, they are too nice guys.

By creating conflicting situations you get rid of that fear. Also makes your brain work really hard, cause you are putting yourself in situations where you can be physically in danger.

I tried personally and definitely works.

Like purposedly hitting on a girl, while her bf/husband is beside her.

Or pretend you want to buy something from the stand, take the item but don't pay. Either pretend that you are an idiot. Or just say "What are you gonna do? If I just walk away?" Or just start eating if it was the food. Do it slowly, make other people wait in the queue.

If you see a queue just purposedly go in front, make it obvious that you are doing on purpose.

Or stand in front of the doors and don't let anyone in. You can make stupid shit like "It has been quarantined"

The possibilities are endless.

The main purpose of these exercises is to make someone angry while you maintaining cool. If you get angry as well, it means you failed the exercise. When you see that is going out of control, then control the damage and make situation funny. Make another person from angry at you to "You are actually funny. I forgive you".

The more you do these exercises, you will become like a JuJitsu master of social situations.

This one's my favorite. Honestly, I haven't actually waited on a line in years, I always just go straight to the front. No one ever says anything. It's amazing how everyone on reddit is a keyboard warrior, but people are such fucking worthless cowards IRL.

I’ve been doing social freedom exercises like a madman lately. I figure if the worlds potentially ending, I might as well go all in and attack the anxiety that has weighed me down all my life. Uh anyways here’s what I’ve been up to:

-“Hi what’s your name?” “Cool” awkwardly stare at them then leave

-Haggle with GameStop employees over cheap games

-Ask random people for outrageous amounts of money like “hey do u have $200?”

-Tell people their Dog is sexy

-Stand in line without moving forward when there’s space

-find couples chilling in the park, pretend your and artist and walk up to them and begin sketching them without saying a word, spend like 3 minutes drawing and then show them the horrible, stick figure drawing you made, act like it’s amazing and say you went to art school.

-cat call girls in ridiculous ways (be careful w this one)

-Ask hot dog stands if they have a bathroom

-Bow at people

-get someone’s attention and then just blankly stare at them and say “uhhhhhhhhh” until they get confused and leave

-Walk backwards

-Asking employees where items right in front of you are

-Dance like an idiot

-Sing like an idiot

What’s really important is that you stick in the interaction and feel the awkwardness, eat the cringe it’s good for you.
