    I need a girlfriend (serious)
    I am 19, a virgin, scared to talk to girls, I am sick of seeing others in relationship and not me, it gets me depressed, i like a girl who works accross my shop but because im too much of a pussy to talk to her, i probably won't get her, what do i do ?

    Accept the fact that you will not get her and try to adjust to being a lifelong member of the Virgin Club.

    Get some confidence first, then approach some girls.

    MAN UP AND DO IT

    It will be hard but you just have to do it! You can't give up now! Did Bruce give up on Matilda when presented with that huge cake? No he did not! I'd try and think of some more relevant things here but I can't so I'm going to roll with Bruce.

    YOU CAN DO IT!

    And they're right, if you don't start believing in yourself and taking some chances, you'll miss out on many things in life.

    What would you suggest then? There's little else you can do. Even those with **** loads of a cash who get themselves a 'trophy gal' still have that initial confidence.

    What you need is a decent wingman.

    I'd volunteer my services, but there's the small matter of the Irish Sea... [assuming you're not Irish]

    They're not, the scariest part of talking to someone is starting the conversation. They will start the conversation for you so you have to talk back to her you can't just not talk, that's rude.

    Get a wingman. :yes:
