No experience with girls - HELP!

edited November 2008 in General
Ok...so I have a huge problem...I'm a 18 years old and I'm a virgin...but that's not it...I've never kissed a girl either...nor have I hugged one...

Truthfully, I've never even held hands with one either except by mistake. I've never spoken with a member of the opposite sex for more than a minute either (besides family members and teachers). I can't even remember the last time I actually touched a girl either...

So, yes....I need help...lots of it...

    this was me ~5 months ago

    for starters, get some confidence, buddy
    live your life and a girl will come along
    eg: i met my ex on the bus (the rest of it didn't go so well but that's another story...)

    basically, just live life day by day, enjoy it, and someone will come along

    oh and i'm sick of people crying about "oh i'm still a virgin" boohoo

    let me give you a clue...you're not missing out on much

    or as Chopper Read says: Harden the fuck up!

    I've been living my life day by day for 18 years and nothing has happened yet...I fear that this may continue for the rest of my life...

    I'm basically a coward and have absolutely no confidence in myself. What is there to be confident about? If features of a person could be rated out of a scale of 10, I'd rate myself: 4/10 Academics, 2/10 Sports, 4/10 Appearance, 3/10 Personality....

    I don't want to admit it but I fail at life itself...

    no, you just fail at being confident in yourself. Go and do something useful with your time and the right girl will come along. Oh and when she does come, don't say anything to her that you have posted here, because then she will leave.

    and dude, you're not missing out on much anyway. Also, its better to worry about whether you will have chemistry with that girl rather than worrying about getting the first kiss etc. I got all that, but had no chemistry so I gained nothing.

    trust me...the first ____ will happen eventually. Worry about succeeding in life in general first.

    Thanks for the tips...do you have any on how to talk to girls? The reason I can't talk to them for more than a minute is because as soon as we start talking, I freak out and my mind just goes blank...resulting in me just standing there not knowing what to say...in silence...

    That is why you fail.

    To start a conversation and then have nothing to say = fail

    Once you start a conversation, keep it going.
    Try asking questions about school.
    But: keep in mind that some girls just don't want to talk, and that's just fine.

    I see, thank you...I might try that later on...

    I'll probably mess up but I guess it won't hurt to try anyways...

    well from what you said ur an anti social person which i doubt anyone wants to be around for too long, esp girls ...
    my advice to you is go out in public and talk to random people and try and keep conversations going
    why?
    because you will never meet them again so there is less pressure on ur ass since u seem to fuck up due to being self conscious

    its all about choice dude u can sit there think about all ur flaws and that your not worthy and in reality if u think that way of urself then yes you are ...
    or you can choose to change, lifes long, ur 18 man its not the end of the world so stop acting like ur life is over or ur gonna be lonely cuz thats all ur choice and if u act and think like this you will be lonely and you have no1 to blame but this idiotic logic
    and im not tryn to be harsh or bash, im just being realistic

    im sure there is something your good at doing, find girls or people in general with the same interests and talk to them it will feel more natural
    and the best advice i can give u is dont even think about getting laid... think about just being a social human being...

    eat healthy and hit the gym regularly to up yourself from a 4 to a 7
    show that you have ambition/goals in life to succeed
    don't appear desperate

    and most importantly

    CONVERSATION is critical.

    talk to her and LISTEN as her endless spew of words is the air you breathe.
