Unless she fakes pregnancy.

Anyone who says they're intentionally holding off on getting a girlfriend is just a loser rationalizing why they don't already have a girlfriend.

Generally yes, develop relationships with close friends first and have fun with them, because once you start going out with someone, that's the end of life as we speak 😉

Don't let the wife hear that mang. Or you're in DEEP DOOKIE. (i.e. NO MORE NOOKIE)
 
I am not sure if you are asking the question properly.
Unless you are planning on becoming a hermit it is always better to experience everything in life. If you have a girlfriend you always run the risk of making a fool of yourself but how else are you going to learn about what women want and need and about yourself if you never give it a chance?

I generally dislike these questions because I think the people who come up with these questions are putting too much pressure on themselves. A girlfriend is just another friend who happens to be of another gender. Just treat her how you would like to be treated and you'll be fine. If she doesn't like you for who you are then big deal, she doesn't deserve you anyway. Move on, there are a lot of people out there. And not having a girlfriend is not the end of the world either. Don't try so hard. Stay involved with your friends, be active, and you'd be surprised at who you meet and sure enough you'll find someone when you are least expecting it.

Good luck, dude. :beer:

Well, you can't plan these things. They just happen, that's what I understood. You can't just go out there and get a GF. You have to find that special someone who suits you and it isn't easy, it takes time. In fact, some time ago I was so obsessed with 'getting' a GF a was going nuts. But now I understood how stupid I was. I know I don't really want to be with a person I don't quite like. And right now I don't like anybody and I don't expect I ever will. But it's better than to be with someone you'd hate in just a few days.

why not?:

first off, if you want life to go well for you, stop being a control freak...no one likes anal tards whining and complaining while they're out having fun.
second, to get a girl friend, you'll need a life. to get a life (or at least a decent one), you'll need friends.
third, stop being a control freak
fourth, control freaks are lonely losers
fifth, adaptability is key for social environments, so control freakism will not work.
sixth, use good judgement on who you want as your friends...just remember that nerds have ugly chick friends...fat chicks have the hottest chick friends...but don't be a control freak about it.
 
wise move getting a girlfriend

that sounds so weird

sounds like ur buying her from new egg or something lol
 
I *think* I understand what you mean. The answer is stop planning your social life. You can't plan it because a big deal of it depends on other people. You can control other people unless you want to be a manipulative a*hole. If you do find a girlfriend still go out and meet new people. Don't make your gf the center of your world and detaching yourself from other people. Summary, you can have both gf and friends at the same time.
