    Common girl trouble
    This probably a subject posted frequently but I wonder if anyone could give me some advice?
    Basically, every time me and my friends are with girls I'm always the one seen as the "friend".
    While my friends are able to get off with any of them, I just crack jokes and I'm usually ignored.
    A pretty pathetic post I know but I kinda feel like I'm just a mass that fills up space.
    Any advice? Thanks

    I agree with the post above, you are not flirting with them, perhaps because you are nervous or slightly shy. I see where you're coming from - cracking jokes to fit in yet being ignored - awkwardly engaging in banter so they remember that you're still there - never in the middle of the conversations circle always on the edges. OP you need to establish yourself as a bigger personality, someone they will listen to and not talk over. Stop giving a **** what people think and start taking control. Start flirting and teasing these girls for starters...

    Wait wtf, I was under the impression that you are a dude

    Hmmmmm, are you fat?

    The fat ones do you usually get ignored tbh. Yeh they'll have a laugh and a joke with you, but aint nobody wanna be seen in public with a fatty.

    So lose some weight tbh, and watch them boys come flooding in
    Biggest load of bull**** I know.


    You probably don't have any confidence in yourself, hence all the jokes you're hiding behind them! Tbh, I'd just wait for the right guy, I know it's the whole 'you're young' but seriously - get abit more confidence in yourself and you'll notice a change :-)

    Don't be the goofy guy. Women don't get turned on by that.
