meet girls at college outside of parties? I know this sounds dumb to some of you, yea college campuses are swarming with females, but it seems like I'm so rarely in a position to get to know girls and scope for gf potential.

I'm somewhat anti-social by nature, don't usually dominate conversations etc but I'm not like "that quiet kid" or anything.

Here's a typical day for me:
Wake up
eat: dining hall not a place to meet girls obviously
go to class: I dunno about you but most classes are tough to meet girls in since the professor is usually just talking the whole time and everyone else is silent. Sometimes if you're in a big lecture hall and you're sitting in the back you can talk to the person next to you, but it's not easy to strike up a conversation with someone you don't know when there isn't a whole lot to talk about since you're both just sititng there bored as shit.

Then some more classes and eating takes place until evening. I get back to my dorm room and kick back, do some homework, and then just chill on my computer or go play video games w kids on my floor until I go to sleep.

I'm not sure where meeting a girl factors into this equation-.- I'm not great at starting conversation w strangers.

Anyone stuck in a similar rut?

.
.
.

Optional Questionnaire
1)a. Are you in college?
b. If you answered yes to part 'a', do you have a girlfriend?
c. If you answered yes to parts 'a' and 'b', where did you meet said girlfriend?

How do you like them apples, ho-bag? And how do you like those very same apples, Eggars!

I know what u mean. It's like what are you supposed to say?

"hey you're cute"

Like there's nothing logical you can say. It sucks that there's not really a way to get to know random girls unless you already know them from somewhere else like a class.

I do it all the time. Works pretty well.

If you need to explicitly say you aren't 'that quiet kid' you probably are, sorry. Just be more social. More talkative. It really is that easy. Joining a frat might be a solid choice too, I don't know.

I can't stand frats, and personally I just find it almost backhandedly insulting to just walk up to a girl and say they're cute. Obviously it's an insult, but if you're using that as a means to get to know them or get them to go out on a date with you, it's pretty shallow and implies a certain sense of only caring about looks.

Whatever

I'm sure every initial attraction is attributed atleast partially to looks.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Cute applies to mannerism too, it simply is a statement that you are interested in them. Usually when combining with asking someone out it goes well with "I want to get know you better",
