Emotionally Immature

The first step to getting any girl to notice you is to exude confidence. Girls love that more than anything about a man. Even if she's independent herself, she'll want to know that a potential partner can hold himself together and know what he wants.
If you don't know what you want, take a second to really think about where your life is at right now, consider what you think you could change to improve yourself, and take steps to doing whatever those things may be.
I used to be really shy and awkward when I was younger lol, now I'm able to have full conversations with people, about mostly anything.
My best advice for finding girls to date is of course to find a dating app, or a site online, as many of them have filters and are able to find you a perfect match, I personally met my fiance online 3 years ago through a video game and happened to get REALLY lucky, lol, but I've seen online dating work for several people around me. So be honest, and have fun. Most sites and apps are free, what've you got to lose? :)

start dating now. you don't even need relationships. just date for the sake of practice. Use tinder/bumble and go on shitty dates, learn, and the next one won't be as bad.

If you put off women and dating, you'll end up like me. I can't open up to women emotionally because it is hard for me to do so. I feel like a sociopath when a woman says she likes me and I tell her I like her too, but in reality I want to go home and read a book. It's upsetting because no matter how hard you want to change, you make an excuse for why you are so cold. Even though there is no excuse, the answer is that you're actually empty inside.

You become broken if you're alone for too long. Luckily, you're young and you have a chance. Go out there. Go on dates. You will fall down. You will look dumb on your dates. Women will judge you. But that's ok because the only way to learn is to practice. Anyone that tells you they're a natural is lying. Sure some people make it look easy, but its a combination of practicing and getting that confidence after falling so much they don't care if they get scrapes here and there.

Is there anything other then tindr to try out? I have tinder and right now the only girls within a 15 mile area are really really fat and ugly, or not my type, and the ones that are datable are way out of my league

I would say try out OKcupid, or e-harmony, especially e-harmony. I'm pretty sure it's free, and it's how my grandma met her boyfriend of 10 years, and my mom met my stepdad. It works wonders. The compatibility ratings are amazing. OKcupid is also viable from what I've heard from my friends that have used it, and might actually be more well suited for the younger generation. Just explore all the options and sites, see which ones look the most appealing to you. Do a bit of research, and make a decision from there.

Anon, it's NEVER too late to find love. EVERYONE has a soulmate. Go out and find them.

Something to consider:

Sigourney Weaver's character in Alien is widely considered one of the coolest and most well-written female characters in the history of film. The key is, the part was originally written for a man.

That is to say, why are you making such a black-and-white distinction between your interactions with male friends and your interactions with girls? If you were able to make a lot of friends in hs, you probably have a decent personality. Don't think of girls as girls, think of them as people.

But don't people say if you dont make your intentions clear within a few interactions with them then girls move on?

>>17549957
Fuccbois say that, yes. If you're a guy talking to a girl, then trust me, your intentions are very clear.
