cannot attract girls at all.they all want me as a friend.

[uongy]

im having a bit of trouble attracting the people i fancy.

 

ive always and will always be a person who finds personality more appealing than pure looks alone.im not particularly bothered about looks too much although a girl would have to have some looks at least.

 

ive made many female friends lately due to being introducted to them as there are mutual friends.i find many of these girls very attractive and would like to date these girls.

 

the problem is that for one i have acne at the moment and im not particularly attractive physically.also,im quite a quiet and shy person although i do have the confidence to talk to people quite easily.

 

ive made my feelings known to te girls i fancied and none have returned any sort of favour in terms of attraction where thay said im "not their type" this is really depressing that i cannot seem to attract girls.im often regarded as a very nice and sweet person and make friends very easily.

 

im not sure what im really doing wrong.im just being myself and i dont seem to be getting anywhere.any advice?

How old are ya? Sounds like you are in your teenage years.

 

Don't worry about it too much. I was in the same boat. Had lots of girls who were 'friends' especially in high school, but could never get a girlfriend.

 

Yes, it is depressing and you start to think its something you are doing wrong. But it's not. I found alot of girls thought that they were too good for really anybody at that age. Do things that you enjoy try not to think about having a gf too much. It'll happen when it does.

 

As I got out of high school and into college I found more women being attracted to me. Even more so after I was done with college. Unfortunetly alot of women are into looks especially at that age. Your acne will disappear and if you work on your personality some (with the shyness) you'll have alot of women flocking to you.

 

Try taking a martial arts class, that will improve your self-confidence a million times over. It'll also help your body out as well. You'll become more outgoing and more confident in yourself. Women find that very attractive.

 

Good luck!
