im a little confused about my situation. you see, i consider myself a real attractive guy, smart, at least somewhat funny. i am skinny however (pretty skinny, but not morbid or anything ), and i might tend to be a lil too funny sometimes. Okay, so what i dont understand is why arent the ladies that i flirt with, and the ones that i dont, come and persue me. plus, my older brothers and best friend get many many girls interested. what am i missing or doing.

You probably expect too much from yourself, Just take it easy and if your as good as you say you are then just grab a sweater and chill

Getting the Hang of things

It's really simple. I bet you are doing two things wrong.

a) you are probably avoiding eye contact. You probably walk around looking at the floor instead of in front of you. Hold your head up high and walk with confidence. Try to look a women in the eye during the day, and hold eye contact when you see a girl you like. If you avert your gaze as soon as you lock eyes, it's like you are rejecting her. When you look away as soon as you lock eyes with a woman, it's like saying "I hope she doesn't think I like her, I better look away so she doesn't get the wrong impression".
So don't be afraid to make and keep eye contact. Women find eye contact extremely sexy.

b) You probably walk around with a serious or emotionless face. Walk around with an upbeat facial expression. Then when you lock eyes with a women, throw her a smile. Women can't help but smile back and it's like you are inviting them over to flirt with you. Women are scared to approach guys, a smile is like saying "Don't worry I want to talk with you".

Your not building up any attraction with the girls you talk to. I also bet you rely a lot on your looks as well. Girls are into looks but not as much as you think.

yup looks mean very little build some attraction and you'll be set

Well, girls are not approaching you and you aren't approaching. So imagine you would be approached by many many girls, would you even consider to approach yourself ? You are not even approaching at this moment ! But they send out signals if they are interested. You have to catch those signals and act on them. At the end you are the one who will have to do the approaching. Girls are used to be approached by men so why would they risk rejection especially for you if they have other guys approaching them which they can accept or reject themself without feeling the pain of rejection ?

YES! good stuff thankx. but one thing, i do flirt with some of the girls and i do the things that build attraction, and im almost positive im doing them well. and its not just one girl that i flirt with, most of them actually.

frankbat if you where actually building attraction then girls would pursue you more. I think you are having the trouble of telling the difference from girls just having fun flirting with you to girls actually showing interest in you.
