OK, so first of all Hello, I'm new here...

Now, I just have to get this off my chest, I don't know what my problem is. Im 18, and lately I've been wanting a girlfriend, the "loneliness" is killing me, and since I don't have many things to keep me occupied, its even harder.

I've never been a guy that gets a girlfriend quite often, in fact, I haven't had one in 2 years. My problem is not my appearance, I've actually been told im quite good looking and I get good stares while walking down the street, and I've had very attractive girlfriends. I guess you could say I'm self concious though, since I had bad acne for a while and some sequels have stayed; that affects my self confidence, I lack that.

Self confidence is an issue, but I realize my biggest problem is that I can't find a way to meet new girls (I think trying to get to know someone over the internet is rather ridiculous if you're looking for a relationship). Ive though about some ways but nothing comes to mind, I mean, am I just supposed to walk up to a girl and start talking to her at the mall?

Another problem I have is that I'm too picky, and sadly (I hate to acknowledge this) I care way too much about the physical appearance.Being picky isn't going anywhere, in fact, I think it's useful sometimes.

I need to find a way to meet new people, I need new friends, but I just can't find a way, whenever I think about it, it's not so simple, it's not like I just have to go somewhere alone and I'll just meet someone new. I'm tired of staying at home doing nothing, when I know many people are just outside having fun with others.

So yeah, just had to say that... I just want a non-creepy way of making new friends and who knows, maybe finding a girlfriend, so if anybody knows a way to do this like a normal person does, I'm all ears. Thanks!

Join a club at school, of something you're interested in. That way the people there will be interested in the same things as you, and you will automaticly have something to talk about. Or join a sports team in the summer (may not be the best place to get a girl, but it works well for friends). Or, get a job, you're bound to make a co-worker friend.

I have no clubs to join, in fact you could say I'm on vacation and I'm in college. I have no idea where to join a sports team either haha. And i've tried getting a job but nothing :/

I'm just really bored of having nothing to do while many people I know have a ton of friends and have something to keep their mind occupied every day...

I think youb should work on yourself and your self-esteem

girls like confident people
and the fact that you dont do much, dont occupy yourself/have hobbies

What do you plan on talking about to your girlfriend when you lack interests or common ground?

Be active i guess? Hang out with friends you have, get them to bring some people they know to hang out as a big group and expand your contacts- maybe you'll find something.

Yoga or a fitness class.

You're bound to meet a girl, and they are bound to be in great shape. Healthy girls are usually more active(fun for dates, different things). I mean, go to places that girls will want to go. You won't find a good girl at a bar.

Yeah, don't do the mall thing. When guys come up to me at the mall/shopping places, I get really creeped out. Even if they're mega hot. I'm just like "Uhhh...no." lol.
If you're really into music, go to a SMALL show, where the girls won't be totally wasted and actually ready to talk. If you like the intellectual ones, go to an open-mic show and just small talk it out with someone attractive. If you like the nerds, go to the library LOL. jk.. Meh. I guess there are hot ones at the beach. You should get a few friends (less attractive guy friends, preferably. just so the girls don't hit on them instead of you) and go to the beach. Play volleyball to attract yourselves, or throw a football. Something to get the girls' attention. Any of those would be good except the library part xD
So yeah. Sometimes myspace is an option...

It makes sense JordenFUCK... but as you said before, when a guy comes up to you out of nowhere it creeps you out... wouldn't that be the same situation if it hapened at a library/show/etc? I mean, I also think its creepy to just go up to someone, not to mention how they would feel... And the thing about myspace is that... I dont know... it's not the same as being face to face with that person you know? And in my opinion it looks pretty desperate qhen someone looks for new friends online, but thats just me.

Is there a non-creepy way ogf going up to someone? if there is, It would be useful : )

It's a fact- curing acne can never be achieved by tackling one of the many factors responsible for acne. If you've ever tried to cure your acne using one-dimensional treatments like antibiotics or even detox diets and failed it's probably because you tackled only one aspect of the disease. Not only will this system teach you the only way to prevent your acne from being formed, you will also learn the only way to through online acne treatment .
