Getting A Girlfriend

[NewLeafsFan]

Ok so I'm 18, living on a university campus, and have never been in a relationship. I want to be in a relationship and I'm being really patient; definitely not forcing anything too quick. I recently moved to the campus from home and I'm starting to settle in. I'm lonely sometimes as I've made friends but theres so much school work to do that I don't often get out with them cause one of us is always busy.

My biggest problems are the following: new to talking to girls and low confidence. I have almost no experience. I am about 35 lbs over weight, so I'm working hard to get in better shape. I go to the gym everyday. To my knowledge, no girl has ever had feelings for me and it's like I've convinced myself that it won't happen.

Any advice is really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

There lot chance you can make friend in college. Go to some park, library , classroom.
Give good first impression to someone is a cool way to get you more deep into conversation. don't push them to talking much, but let them know you more. And it would be better if you can get same interest topic. Goodluck.

It's awesome you're trying to improve your health and getting to the gym. The more you work out, the better you're feel about yourself. That means you'll have more confidence. But please keep in mind that not just skinny or ripped people fall in love. So much more goes into it than weight, so please don't let that limit your possibilities.

I agree. I also think your confidence is the biggest thing, low self image. Change that, I think a lot will happen.

35 pounds isn’t really a shit ton, you can do that, but diet is important to. Keep in mind people come in all different shapes and sizes. How’s you dress and present to people will say a lot about you. If you come across as shy, low self esteem, maybe don’t dress neatly etc, people, not just girls notice that. So even if you are a bit over weight, dress well, walk with your shoulders back and looking up,eyes straight, and smile at people. Give that some time

Keep going to the gym, meet some friends, socialize, network. You’ll get feed back on lots of things as time goes on. Your meeting new people. Go to a party with some classmates. See where that goes.

It’ll change, trust me

I think that if u do lose some
weight u will gain more self
confidence. Eating less and
working out should work,

Well congrats for working out and trying to get your weight in line. Now along with that you need to build up your self confidence and love yourself. Just try being more social with both the guys and girls. Maybe join a social group or hang out where others gather. Just keep up the good work and believe in yourself and you will succeed.
