I'm tired of this, I want help.

Post Reply New Topic

I am like many people here (no offence of course) have been having increditible trouble finding a girlfriend. I've been trying to find one with little success. I don't think it's a confidence issue but maybe at least an over confidence issue. I may possible too confident and that maybe what is scaring women away. I can't be sure of that but I believe some of friends have mentioned that I can be too intense maybe. I don't if it's looks either but I guess maybe I am ulgy I don't really know but I don't notice some women looking at me from time to time on the bus and etc so maybe not. I don't know what it is that I am doing wrong and I can only guess at what is the issue. I would like some help to change for the better and I am willing to give any information that may help but as I said I can't be sure what is the exact root of the problem so I can't give out everything. Any help please would be appreciated, I am so tired of being alone.

You already correctly guessed what the problem is and your friends confirmed it.

"I may possibly be too confident and that maybe is what is scaring women away. I can't be sure of that but I believe some of my friends have mentioned that I can be too intense maybe."

Take off the "maybe". When you suspect it and your friends confirm it, it's the problem. You are coming on way too strong and scaring women away. Since your friends have diagnosed the problem, they are the best ones to show you more laid-back approaches that won't scare women off.

I don't think I will get any help from them, so far when I ask for advice I just get answers like, just wait for the right one to come along, or your only [insert age here] and etc, the kinda of answers I get from parents and sister, not the best of advice or practical in my opinon. Occasionally someone will try something a little more practical but their advice doesn't seem to helping either. That might because the sort of advice I get can be found by googling it. If you or anyone can help me out I would appreciate that. Another friend on a side note tried taking me out to a club one time but that didn't work, in fact I mostly spent night seeing my friend getting heaps of attention from girls from just good old small talk to more inimate connections which eventually escalated in me feeling very depressed. I left the club for a breather just to get head around things and I didn't think the games of bingine drinking were going to make the night a more pleasant one so I tried to play that down little bit to avoid as much as possible. I am not into that sort of thing really.

Just curious, why the need to get a girlfriend?

I am looking someone special but having hard time doing just that. I wouldn't call it a need just desire to be connected to someone that has things in common with me. Indeed one day I wish to marry and have kids. I'm not just looking for a girlfriend, I want someone special not some random girl on the street. I am not desprate, in no way am I that way. However I am depressed by this lack of the ability at the very least to attract the attention someone I can truly connect with. I've had relationships before but not what I wanted. My last one we had almost nothing common with it. It was depressing aspect that I just want to change for the better. We all feel this need, to be loved, to be understood by someone that just keeps poping in our minds for some inexplictable reason. I guess I am just being.... human.

I think what you need is only a little patience.

There is your princess in a sepcial place who love your face and your personality, waiting just for you. We are all on the way of finding our own princess/prince, getting over difficulties such as loneliness, sadness, is something we must do on they way.

Maybe we can't find her/him finally, but at least, there is hope.
For this hope, we should keep happy, keep healthy, to meet her/him.

So, SMILE.

Trouble is, when you look for 'a girlfriend', you eventually stop caring who the girl in question is, just as long as she's a girl and is willing to hang out with you in public. This happens when you think in terms like "I DESERVE a girlfriend, like that guy has," or "I'm just tired of being alone." Trouble is, it effects how we relate to girls, in that they become objects to be acquired, rather than people to be met. And somehow, just like horses smell fear, girls seem to know when you're interviewing for the position of 'girlfriend', and not just talking.

So, how do you fix it? Just talk to girls the same way you talk to guys. We tend to think of girls as so different that we think of them as an entirely different species, but they're not. And they can tell when we talk that way. So just talk to people.

"girls seem to know when you're interviewing for the position of 'girlfriend', and not just talking."

YES. WE DO. And if you add in the over-intensity your friends are telling you is a problem, I guarantee that you are coming across as a terrifying stalker searching for his next stalkee.

Don't try to converse with girls as a means to an end. Just be friendly and talk to people.
