Yeah, the same advice I give anybody with similar questions. Keep at it!

Well, I'm single, and I've been my entire life, completely.
Never had a girlfriend, and to be honest with you, I never really missed it, or wanted to.
I see it causing nothing but trouble among people, and I don't think I really want that either. But I do very much understand those who really want a girl/boy-friend, and have a great time with the person for the rest of their lifes. I really do, and I think it's nice and good for them.
I just don't seem care about having one myself. :wink:

If you go looking for love you will never find love it will happen when you least expect it.

That's like saying "the water won't boil if you stare at it", only it's even more wrong. Because, you will definitely up your chances by "getting yourself out more".

Ah, yes. In that case, I agree completely.

Yeah, it's always a better idea to look for friends than lovers, and let things work themselves out to further ends from there. =P

"Get out there but don't deliberately look for someone" is good advice for women, IMO, but for them, asking people out and taking the initiative is still optional. Do you think it's good advice for men?

You need to use reverse psychology on love. It worked for me.

Let love know that you don't want to mess about with it no more and it's sure to jump on you, desperate for attention.

The point isn't not to ask a girl out. It's to not go out looking for a girl to ask out. You just hang out and make friends with people, until you notice someone that really catches your interest. I just think it helps to know each other at least a little bit before you try to turn it into a romance.

I did that for over twenty years and it didn't work. So now I'm thinking of switching to a big wooden club and dragging them by the hair into my cave...

(Actually, I'm looking for other suggestions)
