I don't. But I am wondering if I should perhaps consider changing my lifestyle to help me aquire this goal. I guess the other day ago I realized that, in truth this was my biggest goal, and I'm trying to decide if it is a healthy thing, that this is my biggest goal, before embarking on any kind of a quest.

if it isnt hurting someone else and would make you happy i am sure it is a decent goal to have...but like all other things, you reap what you sow......soo if you just post about a girlfriend and say i wan i wan i want you will not get any closer to having one.......here is my recommendation....

-hit the gym 3-4 times a week if you are not doing so already, this will boost testoterone and give you increased energy and confidence which women are very keen on picking up

-make a commitment to approach at least 2 girls a day and try to attain there fone numbers or arrange a future meet up.....you will get rejected....alot.....but what you learn will increase your confidence and improve your interaction with females

-active observe the behaviors of men you believe are sucessful with women, take notes and start taking what they do and incorporate it into your life....

-if you dont have some already take up a hobby!


thats all do start with....i guarantee you if you make a commitment to do these things on a daily basis you will have dates and a girlfriend in no time at all. BUt like anything else you must work for what you wwant and sometimes its gonna suck.

this is very true. I hope I am able to have the discipline to put in the work, and get this done. I think you are right though. If you want a girl bad enough, and work hard enough, you will get one soon eventually.

Your looks are not the issue, it's the aura of neediness. It will have to go or everyone will be scared off.

You will never get a girlfriend. I suggest you become a monk, preferably one without internet access.

No, it's not bad, it just depends on your situation. If you have money secured, your next priority should be a woman. That's perfectly natural.

Yeah your pic is fine. As long as you're not dressing like a geek with a pocket protector and pants pulled up to your chin you would be fine. Girls like confidence and guys who can make them laugh, work on that.

Well, you're not a bad looking kid, so I'd have to say that you either must have a terrible personality, or you spend absolutely no time around girls. Here's a hint: acting desperate is the worst way to find a girl. It drives them away without fail. The more pathetically needy you appear, the less likely it will be that a girl will want to spend time with you. So don't act creepy. Or needy. Or like a loser who has no life whatsoever besides sitting on the sofa playing nintendo.

Spot on - I noticed friends of mine on the pull dont get much, or what they do get is frankly crap. The moment they stopped looking, they actually find someone decent.

If you're going to keep posting YAGDLMIAFTs (yet another girls don't like me I'm a freak threads), do us a favor and post your daily activities each day for awhile. Day 1: "Today, I got up and went to classes, then came home and played nintendo on the sofa. The end." Day 2: "Today, I got up, went to classes, then came home and played roleplaying games online. The end." Day 3: "Today, I got up, went to classes, then came home and spent the rest of the day trying on my mom's clothes in my room. The end." That sort of thing. Maybe we can nail down your problem.

Best advice: Get a dog.

Seriously. It'll take care of those issues of feeling needed to a good extent and it'll provide constant companionship. I recommend a cute dog of some kind, preferably playful as well. A dog like that can also be a major chick magnet. My old man was always telling me how just taking the collie he had for a pet way back would just draw the girls out of the wood work. It also shows the ladies that you have some responsibility and are able to look after another creature without always putting yourself first. And finally a dog will get you out of the house now and again and keep you off here a good bit.

Edit: Dogs also don't talk back and usually are pretty good at showing affection. Your damaged ego thus needn't be traumatized any more than it already is.

Make it a female dog if you want to solve the other problem people here insist you have.

Excellent advice! You can meet lots of chicks at the dog park!

I think it's quite important to be able to be completely happy alone. Being in a less than ideal relationship could actually negatively impact you in the long run, and even the short term. I'd think at 20, unless you've accomplished much more than I'm assuming, that wouldn't be a good #1 goal to have. Also, I'm saying that typicall, if you're not "looking" for a relationship, you're more likely not to settle for someone just to not be single. You're more likely to find someone that is actually going to improve your life, and chose someone that is right for you I think when it's not your #1 goal.

You're pathetic. You remind me of that guy that auditioned on American Idol in Hawaii. If anyone can remember, the guy said the most important thing for him was for him to get a girlfriend and in becoming an American Idol, he feels he can achieve just that.

Step away from the computer and try getting some fresh air. BTW, when a girl says you're average, she means you're ugly. Girls are too nice to say you're ugly to your face but they don't want to lie and say you're good looking. The safest answer in this scenario is ... average.

Man this is the only person on the board who actually gets me pissed. I see a thread, "Is it bad that" and my curiosity gets me to open it up then I read, "My most important goal in life right now, is to get a girlfriend?" I then get disgusted about how friggen pathetic that is and just as I am about to go to the main page I see who wrote it. How many times do I have to fall for this? It's like someone saying, "hey come here, you gotta check this out!" then they bring you to a huge steaming pile of dog crap then laugh, "made you look!"

No, what's bad and pathetic is that it has been your solitary goal for nearly 3 years at the very least and you are just realizing it now.
