We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on.
Posts of the following nature are banned:
1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post.
2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no.
3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture.
4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments.
Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating. |

I'm gay (and not obviously so), I'm introverted and get ridiculously anxious when meeting new people, and I hate parties. Fast track to datelessness. Meh. I'm hoping that I can meet someone I'm compatible with sometime soon. Beer and team sports! Seriously, joining Gay Soccer changed my life. I belong to a league of ~160 co-ed gay soccer players where we play every tuesday/wednesday, and have the occasional social event where we'll rent out a club/bar, play music and raise funds for our league. It's for all skill levels where some people have never kicked a ball before in their life, and other's who have played for 20 years. It's a huge age range and has really positive energy. There's just so many plusses! * You get to meet people without it having to be awkward (you're there to play soccer; you have something to focus on) * You get great exercise * You build a skillset and improve (sense of accomplishment) It's rad. I highly recommend it! (infact, i'd recommend joining a co-ed team sport for anyone wishing to meet new people. This isn't limited to homosexuals, and it's not limited to trying to meet people for dating purposes either. Some of my best friends are people I met in this league)
I'm not even gay, but that sounds awesome

cooking classes.
"Emergency classes" (idk the right word, classes where you learn CPR and stuff)
The Internet?
I'm seriously thinking about cooking classes. I'd love to be able to cook, meeting new ppl is just a bonus.

If you live in the South, then at church is always an option. More of an option if you are religious, but even if you're not you can go and meet people there (just come up with a reason to be going besides "to pick up chicks"). Works best if you're college age or younger.
Sometimes its good to ask people in your area. At UGA people meet at Publix (a grocery store). Its really weird but its just how things are there.
I need to find a good place here to meet girls besides bars, parties, and campus.

haha. Now that's some bad advice. Who'd want a religious nut as a gf. I would never want to be with a girl who steps in a church. rather be single for life.

If you live in the southern US anywhere outside of a metro area this is essentially all you would have to choose from.
Being in no way religious myself, I'll also call you out on assuming church going = religious nut. I've meet more than a few people who attend religious services for whatever reason(family, tradition, community, spouse, whatever) who don't hold any particular religious beliefs.

Agreed on both fronts. I lived in rural Georgia before moving off for college, and the only place I met people outside of school was at church. I'm non-religious, but my family is, so I was around a lot, and a very wide variety of people go to church for a wide variety of reasons, especially in the South. Not sure about how it is where Nizaris lives, but a lot of places churches are as much community centers as they are religious institutions.
More on topic, my luck is really bad lately. I've met a few girls but nothing seems to go well after like 2/3 dates. Maybe cause its midterm season. Hopefully I can expand my friend group and meet some girls that aren't as busy.

Have hobbies that get you out of your house and participate in them frequently.

all the shit I like doesn't cater to that idea. Art/Graffiti, Underground Hip-Hop, Esports etc. So not mainstream I'm a fucking hipster.

I'm trying to ask Nibbler out. So far I haven't talked to him in a few weeks and when I did I only said a few short words. I'll see how it goes

I've had maybe ten girlfriends and a lot of 1 night stands. None of them ever end well. My longest was a year. Most girls just find another guy. I have stated friends w a few exs. I'm always told I date girls that are dumb and hot. I'm learning to avoid those and find girls with stuff in common for once.

Everytime i talk with a girl i have no idea what topics to bring up and conversation just seem to stuck at one point. ... EDIT: Someone above mentioned being the 'jealous type' and oh god I have that problem. If a girl I'm with or even interested in even laughs at another guys joke I am filled with seething rage and envy... I have a problem of being the opposite. I find "real life" (the social part :>) to be mind numbingly boring. A consequence of this is that I pay little to no attention to people for any extended period of time, I need constant stimulation. I've noticed girls do quite absurd things to try to get my attention (Wow did that sound like I am Day[9] with the ladies, no, I haven't been with many but the few that have shown interest  ) which simply does not interest me. From my experience they've gotten very frustrated. They don't happier when I tell them I find them boring. Maybe this isn't exactly opposite to your problem. But I figure the envying is kind of a problem of giving them too much attention, perhaps? I do try and walk a careful line between seeming interested and seeming like I don't care, because women can be like cats - the more you try to go towards them the more they run away. But show a certain amount of casual indifference and they'll be all up on your lap (this analogy breaks down very soon). But it's true that the male libido is like being chained to a mad man, and my stupid brain spends the whole time going 'There she is! Grab her! Tell her she's pretty! Ask her to marry you! Fuck, she turned slightly away you stupid fucking cunt you're going to die alone! Is she talking to someone else? KILL HIM. KILL HIM NOW.'
Thats so true, Get so jelly sometimes!

I bet he's watched at least three perfect pitches fly right through his strike zone though 
The only way to get a hit is to swing at the pitch.
+ Show Spoiler +Or you could get a walk or get hit by a pitch, so I don't think baseball is a very good analogy for anything here lol...
