apologies feldenak :( i had no idea...

yea, the phrase "let 'em come to you" sounds funny. Girls dont ever come to anyone, they are too scared to make a move. :)

well they're not going to come and put their mouth on your dick, if that was what you were hoping for... some girls make moves, some don't, but most will make it obvious in one way or another... like if they laugh at all your jokes even though you know they weren't funny, they find excuses to touch you, etc. this will all be obvious, and when it happens, just ask them to go do stuff with you, and don't wait too long to make your move. in the meantime, just forget about girls and do stuff you find fun... volunteer, sports, whatever (other than stay at home, watch tv, play magic, etc)

haha...funny how all of these threads are started by dorks and ugly guys. My advice is to not associate with the dorks you hang out with at school. Get a new haircut- something hip and trendy. Go shopping for some nice clothes...despite what you think, pocket protectors are NOT cool. Working out wouldn't kill you either. Grow a personality- goto school drunk if that's what it takes for you to be outgoing.

You are welcome to do what you want, but it won't get you laid.

well you can do what you want, but i'm telling you right now that you're going to meet more girls doing the other stuff than staying at home or playing magic. furthermore, there are more girls who are going to be interested in the type of guy that does other stuff, and in all likelihood those girls will be better looking.

and lets just take a step back from girls for a second... doing stuff like volunteering is very good for college apps, resume, etc. even if you don't meet any nice girls, you'll be in a much better position than had you just stayed at home.

you're right, it is your choice though.

For someone who is so desperate to have a girlfriend/get laid, you sure don't show it.

i agree, getting out is good, i just dont think its good to tell yourself to get out more all for the wrong reasons.
i believe totally in being yourself, and not changing yourself to get a girl.

I believe there are plenty of good reasons to get out more, (maybe one of them being - more social interaction in general [if thats what you like]) and these are the reasons that you should pursue.

that's exactly what i was saying... forget about chasing girls and go out and do stuff that you are interested in. i'm just saying to be strategically selective in what you do, however... i don't know about you, but i enjoy many things.. i have to pick and choose what i spend my time on. i'm just saying, pick and choose the ones that will help you out in the future. if you have a choice between two activities that you both enjoy, it doesn't make sense to pick the one that doesn't bring you any additional benefit.

Ask yourself whether you are attractive to women right now, as you are. If you do little other than sitting at home watching TV, would you attract the type of woman you would actually want to date? What do you find attractive in a woman? Live life a bit. I remember a couple guys in college who would hang out at parties trying to get laid. They never did unless the girl was wasted. Then the next morning, the girl was gone. They had absolutely nothing going for them (besides being drunk and creepy all the time). Don't become one of those guys.

You are not going to just get your first girl by total accident. What you have to find is the right balance between pursuit and desperation.

Every girlfriend Ive ever had has basically come out of nowhere and became my gf within a month or so, but if I hadnt gone through the process of asking her out and all that stuff she certainly wouldnt be in my life anymore.

You are not going to find that right girl for you by looking for them. Its very very hard. When people talk about meeting girls on accident, they talk about MEETING the right girl on accident. They do not become your GF automatically.

The key is to find someone youre comfortable with enough to hit on. If youre a dork, you need to find youreself a dork. If youre ugly, you need to find someone ugly. Since youre so desperate, find a girl out there thats as desperate as you are. When a couple months go by and you realize how much you dislike each other, youll have enough experience with girls and enough gained confidence to actually find a more suitable match.

Youre trying too hard. Youll know youve found the right girl when you dont have to try as hard anymore. But being a desperate freak is going to scare away 90% of them out there. Just relax, take it easy, youll meet the right girl eventually, and then enjoy hitting on her, its always fun. :)

Word to that, I realized that 2 years ago. Screw dating and finding women. Since I got Broadband, my life has been so much more fulfilling.

In order to get girls you have to have one of the following four, or a combination of two weak ones:

1. Looks
2. Charm
3. Money
4. A big third leg

Let's say you're lacking all, so here's how it works.

You weren't born with good looks, so blame your parents for that, and there's nothing you can do about it.

You can't charm candy from a 3 years old, also blame your parents for that.

You are not blessed in the down stairs department, there's nothing you can do about that one either.... so that leave you with one choice

Money. You might not have much right now, but with a lot of determination and perseverance, you can get lots of it. So instead of trying to look better, being some body that you're not, or swedish penis pump, divert all your energy into education, or making money. Once you have money, every else will follow suit.

You may not have all the fun right now, but, with proper planning, you will enjoy the fruits of your labor, years down the road, and it's better that way any way.

Visit a third world country & flash your weath. You'll have a 50/50 chance of either gettingl laid, or getting kidnapped.

I've never actively seeked a GF just to get a GF. Not worth it IMO. On the other hand, I haven't got laid in soemtime either but that is a completely different story.
