Hey brah, shyness is a B to overcome. Get shot down once and it could kill a person's confidence.

I know I shouldn't tell you this because we're probably very different, but if you get shot down once, try again. The facts hold true that if you try 25 times a night you'll probably only get shot down 24, or so. Score!

I normally choose my battles. (at least, I used to). I got seriously laid nad made a lot of good friends. Girls like the skinny, quirky guy with the right approach.

I was in seventh grade with the girl I actually asked out. It was her first year in TN, she moved here from Muncie, IN. She was a beautiful girl, brunette hair and ice blue eyes, really sweet attitude and sense of humour. We sat next to each other in English class the whole year and became close. I even gave her a necklace at Valentine's Day, just a friend's gift. I finally broke down and asked her out a week before summer break started, she told me she'd love to but she was moving back to Indiana. Long story short, she didn't move to IN and started dating some skate board guy and she completely changed. Never gave me the time of day after that.

Ooooh, well. She's an idiot and you're still you. Forget her and get trying again. Worrying about the 7th grade is stupid. We're here in the new millenium and time is short. She probably regrets it.

Or she is heartless, but I digress...I agree you can't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

The one I was going to ask to Prom was in Junior year of High School. We had been talking all three years of HS and it seemed she liked me as much as I liked her. We had four classes a day in HS (block schedule) and I had soccer 4th and her Spanish. The classes were right next door so I'd walk her to her car everyday and we'd chat. The day I was going to ask her to Prom is the day I hurt my knee in soccer. Little to say I couldn't walk, let alone dance with her, she ended up going with my best friend Tim ( he actually asked her before I was going to and she turned him down for me :ermm: I found that out later). I missed the rest of Junior year and when I got back Senior year she was dating a guy a year younger than me :facepalm:

We might all have a story similar in our past, usa. I could tell you a hundred like that from my youthful days. Or, I could tell you one that would break your heart. I think we all have them. Part of life. Win some/lose some/lose some forever. There's the good side, too. You always see the stories of people who've been together for 20-30-40-50 years and more. Good stories there. Yours could be one of those.

I'm not troubled or down about it, I'm just more leery about putting myself out there now

Yep, I've just decided that the Lord will let me know when it's time. I'm not worried about it, I have faith.

There are way many more better looking guys than me. I've been called the Poor Man's James Spader and a way too goofy Ryan Gosling many times. You'll see at the LSU game.

When I was younger, I just let my personality do most of the work. Girls think I'm cute, but mostly they think I have a brain. Intelligence is the most important trait to a girl. It's evolution. You're a very bright young dude so flex your man-brain and get out there and do it!

That's a good way to go about it. You'll have to get out there and talk to a girl at some point though. It's just all personality, be friendly and have a good time.

I believe in God, but don't bring Him into all this. Have you ever been to Hannahs on the Strip on a Saturday night? God ain't having any part of that nonsense.

If that place is as bad as you allude to, then I wouldn't want anything to do with a girl that hangs there :hi:

usa, girls just want to have fun. Heard it in a song somewhere. Just because one goes there doesn't necessarily mean anything one way or the other.

I wish I weren't so shallow. I can't date a girl, even if she has an amazing personality, if she doesn't look good.
