Re: Twenty years old and I still can't talk to girls....fml
Don't worry... I can't talk to girls either.....and I'm a girl!
I honestly think its less complicated to avoid other chicks. So much drama being a 22 year old female..... x___X

I agree. I'm the exact same way.
To the OP:
As others have said, be yourself. Don't pretend to be someone you're not because that will only disappoint the girl. Be confident, but not arrogant. Go to social events and meet people. Join some school clubs. I've met some of my greatest friends and my current boyfriend from clubs. Turned out we had almost everything in common, from the smallest bad habits to crazy Fresh-off-the Boat- asian parents.
I've dated 2 others prior to my current boyfriend. (One of those relationships being a childhood puppy love thing that doesn't really count). Anyway, I started out as a friend to these guys. I think being a friend first is really important. You get to know each other on the basis of common likes and dislikes and other personal details. I'm sure you're more comfortable with your friends than strangers.
And lastly I will say this, do not judge a girl on her looks. While having an pretty girl is a plus, I believe her mind should be one you're attracted to.

don't be afraid of getting shot down, the more you talk the more confident and comfortable you will get. I really believe there is somebody for everybody when you find someone that you are comfortable with you will know it . somebody else posted had a good idea about maybe going to reptile expo as there you would have something in common with the girls therefore something to talk about. I don't know about all that cheesy pickup lines though, for me that wouldn't work. But maybe that's just me
Re: Twenty years old and I still can't talk to girls....fml
Thank you all. I wish I had time to reply to all of your posts but sadly I work third shift at Denso and i'm on about an hour of sleep. Tuesdays and Thursdays are basically school and try to get some sleep between classes. Which is another factor. Even when I don't have school, after sleep, driving, and whatever else I have to do I have about a maximum of five hours free time. But realistically it's about four give or take thirty minutes and even less if I decide to hit the gym. This is why I have no social life. Guess i'll have to start partying on my one night off. Another thing and I won't go into much detail about it, I was with a very sweet girl for what will be three years on March 3rd. Not going to say it was the perfect relationship or even anything close. Hell it was long distance, she lied about her age for the first six months to make me believe she was only one year younger than me, and her mother intervened more than once. But still, I was sure beyond any doubts that we would be together come next year and that I would spend the rest of my life with this girl. For whatever reason she up and disappeared out of nowhere almost three months ago. So I also have issues with trust and depression.
