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 kissed her at the end of the night and i was left with a weird and a bad feeling. Didnt feel like she was into it. Exactly how it turned out. :|

I've been on a couple dates here and there. Pro tip: girls love apple pie :D in the middle of the night. other pro tip: YOU NEED A JOB SO BADLY IT AINT FUNNY. Dating without a job is like swimming up shit creek by drinking it. Girls will think you more responsible/reliable and you'll be able to pay for nice dates and hopefully have some money on the side for stuff you really enjoy...like rock climbing or shotgun shooting or fencing...what have you. As for relationships, go slow and don't get too serious if both of you aren't ready for it. You don't need to see her everyday(girls...everyone hates clingy) etc... etc... that only works for people who live together. Getting dates is easy, finding someone you want to take on a second date is hard.

I am 17, and haven't been on a single date yet. I could go into more detail, but let's just say everything I have done in that regard has led to a miserable failure (in some cases it was my fault, in some cases just bad luck).

It used to bring me down a lot, but now I kinda think there is time for that as well. I guess I'll know when it's time.

EXACT SAME story as my recent one!! We could go on hours and hours for every topics we brought up (well, except SC:BW...). I always had the thought that she's actually the female version of me. And it hurts so much because I know I probably would never find another one with so much resemblance.

It is scary that when you think something only happens to you, there is always someone out there on this planet experiencing the same.

Lately I've been in a slump, going out on dates with girls who turn out to be complete virgins or really inexperienced, but then again I'm the guy inviting these girls out so the fault lies with me at the end of the day.

And to those guys who find it hard, once you get past the first couple of girls you'll realize chicks aren't a big deal and you'll hit the ground running. The catch is that the longer you wait the harder you'll get rid of that learned helplessness that you have with women. So don't fucking wait, take balls in hand and get er done.

Unfortunately, most of the better looking girls are extremely selfish and vain. Drop these girls, looks are only fun for the first month. Find the girl you find attractive emotionally as well as physically, despite what other people might say or think about her.

not exactly true. some really attractive girls have been through hell and high water with relationships as well, and might sometimes be looking for a nice guy so go for it dudes!

You probably don't want to hear this, but it means they are not physically attracted to you. Find a girl who is, or re-evaluate the way you look and what she's looking for (looks aren't all genetics, there's also hair, clothing, attitude). It doesn't mean you're ugly, either. Girls are really weird about their preferences.

But yeah, anytime a girl says "It's just not clicking" or "I think I like you better as a friend" or something, it is 99% of the time physical.

For me it's the opposite, I had my first gf at 17 and it was the longest relationship I've ever had (around 22 months). Of course when we broke up it hurt like hell. After that, every disappointment has hurt less because I've gradually started to don't give a fuck about it anymore. And it has been 5 years from that already.

Also I noticed every nice guy I know is growing more of a douche because they realize so many douches have a gf while we (me included) don't get any love. Not like douches get any real love, but at least younger girls might look at you and you don't feel like a stupid loser when a project fails xd

Well I haven't ever had any success with dates, but just reading OP's story it seems to me you're being far too unassertive. I would never have put up with her that long, or smiled when she spilt the coffee... but maybe its why I've never had a relationship. I think I'd rather die alone than deal with someone I don't like.

I play games not girls!

But I agree with the fact that the good looking girls are all really annoying :p I've never been in a relationship, I just have no desire to be in one. I'm not asexual or anything as there are girls I would bone the shit out of, just don't want to go out with them.

Met 3 of my girlfriends through Dance Dance Revolution tournaments and events. Amazingly easy way to meet women if you are willing to put some time into getting good at it. They'll flock to you.

Also has the added benefit of them mostly being gamer girls
