Yea....picking up girls with low selfesteem isn't always the way to go....and they RARELY make girlfriend material.....

I'm very unassuming. 'Cute', the ability to seem as if you couldn't fight your way out of a wet paper bag.
It's certainly not my looks, anyway.

It has worked a couple of times for me, but be prepared say goodbye to any dignity you thought you may have had.

I know why I can never have a girlfriend, it's because I'm ugly, and I'm technically retarded, I have aspergers syndrome. That one was always fun to use on bullies. (You'e retarded! I know, I have a certificate!)

The only good points I have i that I try to be nice, I've been told I'm intelligent (i don't seriously believe that), and I'm on very rare occasion, funny, and goodness knows, no girl gives a crap about that. It's just looks, and money.

So my advice, if you ain't good looking or rich, give up, there's more fun things to do in life than constant rejection. It'll save you effort.

Confidence. Self confidence is the key to many a womens heart.

Not cockiness, or arrogance, but confidence. Walk upright, carry yourself as if you mean something, and while speaking to said person of interest, make eye contact. It shows you're paying attention and are interested in what they have to say.
I have all of those in ample suppy! But I agree, carry yourself well.

Also, see if you have anything in common. Be nice and friendly and don't seem rash or make it obvious you want to go out with her/him. Also, text/msn whaterever relationship ARE ALMOST DESTINED TO FAIL. If you know them already and talk to them, then sure ask them by text whatever, but its better if you do it in person, cause it shows confidence and means they will be more sure coz they know it's less likely to be a prank or something.

How do you acquire self-cofidence when you don't have any? What if you don't believe in yourself? How do I find someone who shares the same interests as me?

Whenever I talk to anyone, my mind goes blank... seriously... I can be in the middle of a sentence, then I suddenly forget the next word, and can't finish it... also I can never think of anything other than things nobody else would understand...

My two rules would seem self-contradictory, but they work:

Don't go looking but don't miss it when it comes to you.

You want to drive a girl wild, make her feel like you're something other than putty in her hands. Overeager is a pretty good antonym for sexy. If she's asking herself "why's this guy different? Is it me?" then you've done half your work already.

My best relationships were the ones where the girl approached me, I spent some time sizing her up and not overplaying my hand, then when I saw the opening, I seized the initiative.
God man, you sound like you're playing cards instead of actually trying to get a romantic relationship.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other, friend.

(and as for playing cards, if you play gin I'll be happy to take your money.)

How do I go about getting a girlfriend? Hm...confidence, good hygiene, and a sense of humor are the three most important. Long story short, I cast my net out and date as many women as humanly possible at once(and I don't mean having multiple girlfriends and relationships) and see which I want to be with, if any, after a set period of time and dating(again, not going into relationship territory), drop the others that I don't get along with and click with as well, and stick with that one as her boyfriend. If there isn't a woman I want to be with from those people, I rinse and repeat.

Thing is, I've had praise -heaped- on me ever since elementary school, including a pick of the best colleges in the States. it's just that when I make mistakes, I tend to hate myself for it more than I probably should.

I don't play cards, or gamble. Not for religious reasons, you see; I just think there are much better ways to get money, while not having the risk of selling the clothes off your back.

Okay I need some tips. I really like this girl. We are really good friends. We have an entire group of friends around seven people. We go to the movies many times. Maybe even this Saturday.. We have a lot of stuff in common [Comic Books, Jokes, Television, etc.] We have shared lots of awesome moments. That time we all saw Iron Man 2. I sat next to her, we talked the whole time. It felt like a date. The last movie we saw [Eclipse, she liked it I heard The Last Airbender sucked ass.] So all our friends left and we just sat on the bike rack [My parents make me wait till everyone leaves so no one is abducted] and talked. It was great. But she never responds to my text, but she used to in the spring. Also she might have a crush on my best friend. So you have an idea of how much I like her, and my reasons for being so nervous. Should I ask her out at The Other Guys [this Saturday] or Scott Pilgrim [for a romantic tune] ? Or at all? Please advice.
Go for it buddy. You'll probably end of regreting it if you dont and she ends up dating your best friend... Just tell her how you feel, if she feels the same, great. If not, then there are plenty of other fish in the sea.

I have no problems getting girlfriends... the only problem is I seem to like the people I can't have... ie. my ex.
Yeah, so I'm fucked there until that goes away. I need to do a lot of painful waiting.
Exes are tough. I've only had to get over one girl, but it took me longer than I'd ever have imagined. The thing is, I started thinking of all the bad times we had and that would make me really annoyed. I was with some girls when I wasn't ready and came off looking like an asshole after breaking up with them. But now, everything's fine, and whenever I look back on it I just take the positives. It was a great relationship for me as it gave me loads of confidence, and also kind of steeled me from letting myself be so hurt again.

Looks are a very subjective thing, I doubt there's many people that would be considered universally 'ugly'. Obviously I've no idea how old you are, but I'm only 22 and even now I notice that people I know have moved beyond superficial reasons for entering into relationships. It's no longer about being 'hot' or overtly muscly, it's just about connecting with people. Also, money hasn't factored into things right now, neither me or my girlfriend have jobs at the moment and we split things fairly evenly when it comes to going out and stuff.

I think you're being too cynical when you say girls don't care about humour. My girlfriend is very honest and open and she constantly goes back to the fact that I make her laugh. and if people are telling you that you're intelligent then work off that, don't doubt yourself immediately. From what I've seen, people don't just fling compliments around with wild abandon, it can be quite a personal thing to tell someone they're smart or good-looking, so take it and believe it, because if even one girl felt that way that's all you need.

I've never really had the thought of 'looking' for a boyfriend/girlfriend in my mind before, every relationship I had just kinda happened. My current relationship, I met the person randomly but my ex and I were friends for two years before going out. I think some people think too much about it and let it affect them, but it shouldn't be like that, it should happen naturally. I don't really believe in dating websites and such, I mean I know people do get married and stuff from meeting on there, but I like to leave some of it to fate.

Because I'm not attractive enough to have people ask me out, and whenever I've tried to ask a girl out I either couldn't get up the courage or it ended horribly.

And I'm so fucked up sexually that any chance for a normal relationship is pretty much nil.

Sorry about my little whining session here, I had to get that off my chest.

Use humor and groome yourself. And be confident. That's about it really, although there is no formula for girls/boys. If you make people laugh they'll want to be around you.

P.S. Know how to talk to people. There's nothing worse than having an awkward conversation because the other person is not good at sympathizing or being polite.

Chin up my friend.
You are still young. Your time will come.
Maybe im an optimist but hey, if you focus too much on your negative attributes, they will become much more noticeable to others.

Little scenario I could use some help with (not worth it's own thread so I figure this is as good a place as any). So there's a girl, and according to her friend she likes me. We've met twice (both times we were part of a group of seven) and got on alright, I guess. We haven't seen each other for a while but I figured I might as well act on the tip her friend gave me. Would it be a little bit weird to get her msn from her Facebook page given that we haven't met or spoken at all in quite a while?
