Kami - You've stated the reason why I haven't dated! "I'm a good guy"... you know well enough that chicks only go for the bad guys! :) Believe it or not I have a lunch date with a nice girl I met on hotornot of all places :). She is only looking for friends but at least it will help me interact with those strange creatures we call women :)

Yeah i dont see how to just call up a girl and talk to hear. When they call me i always feel as thought the conversations are extreemly awkward and all they want to do is hang up. I would absoluley love to be able to not have that feeling so i say go for it definatley!!!

hmph...im 15, been going wit my gf for almost 3 months now...lets see some tips................................................(btw 3 months is a long long time for a high schooler) lol did i say a long time?

ok.....


first, you need to find out if she likes you or not, if she does..... ask her out on a date (movie, dinner, walk... anything) and ask questions about her (EVERYTHING) dont do the talking.... dont kiss her on the first date (a hug is good), get her phone #....

then maybe ask her out again..... and start calling her @ night to say goodnight and stuff... girls like that stuff and bam you will have urself a gf lol

if she doesnt like you....do part 1 of the top but with friends... go out as a group and try to concentrate on her... (talk to her mostly, dont be a dumbass with your friends around) and rinse and repeat till she starts liking you...



kinda confusing? sorrie best i can do.. gotta finish up some homework! laters

You're still young at 16, dont analyze the situation too much right now. I'm 24, straight and still hopelessly single, oh well. :eek:

For all you painfully shy guys, I know where you're coming from. I was agonizingly shy with girls, I didn't kiss a girl until I was 20, but I ended up with the hottest coolest wife in the world. Whatever your age, I'll give you two simple, related rules:
1) Don't obsess. It's hard not to, but get on with your life and enjoy yourself anyway. Don't just wait for the perfect match, try and date women you don't have an obsession with, just for the fun of it. Once you date someone for fun you'll relax a lot and have an easier time w/ someone special.
2) Make yourself the person you want to be. Nice guy does not equal lonely depressed whiner desperate for someone to be in love with. The nice guy women want is someone who has an interesting, fun life on their own but wants to share it with them. It's not the bad treatment they get from "bad boys" that makes them appealing (ok, for some women w/ low self esteem, but that's a different issue), its the sense that bad boys live an exciting life. When you enjoy your life women will want to be a part of it.

I think he's very right... I've discovered that the more I focus on getting my own life in order, the more stuff I have to talk about with my women, and the better I feel about myself and my chances (if I were even halfway interested). :D

Heres the deal, you find somethin fun that you and your friends are doin...invite her along...usually I pull the yeah, we're having a barbecue...or we're goin skiin, or we're havin a party, or heres the big one wanna go waverunnin on saturday(I'm spoiled, my roommates got a waverunner so it makes it real easy). So heres the deal though, have a fun activity, and make sure your boys bring girls of their own so shes not the only girl and its all awkward. Having a group eliminates all the awkwardness cause you can play off your boys and talk about random crap. You gotta remember to tone it down a bit around the chicks though. You don't have to worry about awkward silences. Oh yeah, and make sure one of your friends isn't a huge pimp. I got this problem where I bring the girls along and my friends always gets them. Either that or he'll bring his own..but they always want him...I mean if you have a fun activity and your'e not a complete idiot they'll have fun...do things that they dont' do w/ other people such as in the summer I liek to get them to go iceblocking or jump into random pools at night...stuff like that

Buncha-wusses. :p


I'm not 'in the market', so to speak, and don't plan on getting a GF or want a GF any time in the near future...however, I can talk to women without drooling on my shoes or staring at them as if they were a 3ghz P4 Sun/Solaris workstation. :Q ;)

I've got the balls to ask them out, and I don't see why it's such a big deal. I'm not interested, though, so it's not like I'm desperate. Maybe that's why I don't give a fsck?

:)

I was shy and did not date in my first 3 years of high school. For some reason one day I tried not acting like a shy person and suddenly I started meeting, talking to, and dating girls. I recommend you just start talking to the girls around you between classes, after school, on the school bus, etc. Really listen to them and find out what their interest are.

You will get rejected but you will not meet anyone unless you talk to alot of girls.

Confidence is something we find very attractive. :)

Just don't be overconfident and cocky.

Ask a random underclassman to the prom. I did that my senior year and everything worked out okay. I hated her older brother too, so it was also revenge against him, as he knew I'd treat her nice, and she'd stay with me. LOL. I broke up with her when I went to college.

better question is how do you befriend a girl w/o her thinking it's more than strictly platonic? asking one out is the easy part.
