Give reasons as to why i suck at getting a GF

[nazzac]

So heres the situation. I'm 16, stand around 5'8 with a skinny build. I have been told by girls that i'm decent looking (not fit, but not ugly).

I play football and train in mixec martial arts, so i'm spory and an athlete.

i am a quiet person and i have been called "stone faced", because my expression rarely changes, and i show no emotion. I'm a sports fanatic. I love sports and that is all i ever talk about with friends, and that is all i talk about on Facebook and Twitter. But i have been told that i am a very nice person who likes to have good conversations, and listens to other peoples thoughts. I get along with everyone i know, and i don't have any enemies or people who hate me (as far as i know).

But i suck with women. I don't have any friends that are girls (i used to, but people move on) and they don't even seem to want to make a little effort to get to know me.

So what part of that puts girls off me do you think? I'm not looking to change btw. I'm not going to change just to get a GF. I'm happy with who i am, i just want to know what turns girls away from me

They could just not be interested in a relationship. Biggest misconception when people think they can't get a girlfriend. The other big one is that they might not think of you as any more than a friend.

You're 16, don't worry about having a girlfriend. You'll find someone for you later in life. You're only in high school, so the relationship probably wouldn't last too terribly long. Just enjoy your time in high school, and wait till later in life to worry about a girlfriend.

I like it that you're just wondering and not wanting to change. Kinda tells me you aren't that twisted about it, which is good. And you're your own man. Good way to be.

I/we don't know know you well enough, nor do we have pictures, so at best our image of you incomplete.

I think it's tough to find someone to be with. Some people get lucky, some people can't stand to not be dating, so they'll settle for something, rather than nothing.

I do believe it's more difficult for quiet people to connect with others because of their quiet nature for a number of reasons. It could be that some who is "stone face" as you put it may look like they are a loner or a listener or maybe it even freaks some people out. Hard to say.

You do probably know a person or two that knows you better than you know yourself and that would be your closest friend. Maybe ask/her with the promise you'll not be offended by their observations.

There's a guy I know, not a close friend, but I've known him a while. He doesn't have any friends that are girls, never dated or hooked up. Oh, like you and I, he's 16 also. He's a quiet guy if there are people he doesn't know that well. Girls, guys, it doesn't matter.

He wants to have a girl friend, but doesn't know what to say or how to go about it. I even know a few girls that are interested in him and what to know what his deal is. They know he's pretty smart, likes sports, likes doing guy stuff like fishing, hunting. I've told him they're asked about him, but he doesn't know what to say to them, which I totally do get.

I suggested that he invite them to whatever he does next that a girl might be interested in. His family has a boat and use it at least once a week. I suggest he ask one to go with him or ask her and one of her friends to go with him. No big deal.

He says he can't. What if they said no etc.

I told him, then you aren't ready girls yet if you think there is some specific way to ask them out or to do stuff because their isn't.

So..... There isn't anything wrong with you, you just haven't put yourself in the mix and when ya wanna, ya will. Or they'll approach you.

Some guys just annoy girls. We're way more immature than they are. I know I am, so I kinda watch what I say. Not just when they're around, but just in general.

I don't want to inadvertently offend someone. Girls have friends of friends or brothers, guy friends, so If you're being a jerk or doing something stupid and their aren't girls around it doesn't mean that your reputation won't get to the girls before you do.

What's the first thing we do when we're interested in someone in school. We see who they hang out with, try to find out what their deal is, seeing anyone? etc. So if I'm acting like I'd be embarrassing to be around generally, that rep will def get to others before I do.

So ya can tell us more about yourself or better yet, ask a close friend.

Haha Gordo, it seems you patrol this forum and give people relationship advice. Thanks for the advice you gave me a while back by the way, I never really thanked you. Naz, listen to this guy above me, he's good.

Naz, listen to this guy above me, he's good.
If you can physically read the writing. :P

Some girls just aren't interested in dating. It's not your fault at all. Trust me, you'll find someone, but it's going to take time.
