Hey everyone, I'm shitty at talking to and getting girls. I'm a virgin and have never been in a relationship. Also I'm a freshman in college, pathetic, I know.

I find I often lack confidence when talking to girls. People say I'm a funny guy and I know I'm at least decent looking, but when it comes to the approach it just never clicks. I know confidence is important, but that's really hard to have when you're depressed by the whole situation.

I've come close loads of times, but things just never quite worked. My luck has really been laughably bad really. I've had more than one girl want me, but lose interest after they had a death in their family. I've been lead on plenty of times. I've been told directly by a girl that she wanted to fuck me, badly, and then just go back to her old boyfriend. I did everything I could to help a girl through major depression and a hostile family environment. I got attached, so did she, we almost dated, she moved away, came back half a year later, and then wanted nothing to do with me. The list goes on.

Point is that I know I've done some stuff right, but also a lot wrong, but because of how things turned out I don't know which is which.

I hope to change things around, I'd be really grateful if you guys could help give me hope again.

unless its an individual question or whatever, then this whole forum is your new text book, all the basics are here ready for you!

im a new kid on the block so to speak so im learning from others myself and adapting it to fit my style!

Cheer up mate. It'll get better. Expand your comfort barrier over time, slooooowly.

Whats the next action you can take right now, that you're perhaps scared to do, but you reckon you could do if you put your mind to it?

Is it taking the courage to meet up with some guys on this forum?

Is it courageously going out on the street and saying hello to a woman, your first approach?

Or going out on the street and starting a conversation and getting a woman's phone number.

Find the next step which will push you forward, no matter how small, it will still be pushing you forward.

Dude you are on the right track because you are here. Stick with it. It's the hardest thing you will ever do but so worth it!
