College Relationships?

Hi, im a currently a As student and quite new to the college. I want to get a gf in my time in this college but im finding it very difficult for 2 reasons, this college is huge so im seing girls come and go every 2nd, and reason 2 is that in every class i hav new ppls in it and its pissing me off. Too many girls, too many boys, i think im going mad. Anyways, i need advice. How do i get my self a girl in the college?

btw i hav tried a few things like sit in the same table with a group of girls and start chattin to them when its lunch but its not working.

Slow down there, matey. You haven't even met most of the people you see day-to-day yet, and you want to catapult into a relationship with one of them? Put simply, it's not going to happen (or if it does, it'll happen for a month and leave a bad aftertaste).

Have a bit of patience, and just play it cool. You'll never get a girlfriend if you come off as desperate.

don't worry about getting a girlfriend too much man i mean there are more important things! oh yeah and word to the wise: probably not a good idea to date one of the girls in your class it can be awkward if you break up etc.

Calm down! You'll give off desperate vibes which are seriously uncool! Anyway, if you try too hard, you could end up with someone who you dont have anything in common with because you just got with them for the sake of having a girlfriend ASAP :rolleyes:

Just wait a while, see who you get to know. I know it all seems crazy with so many people, but eventually you'll get used to it. And probably find you end up seeing a lot of the same people.
Joining a club or something might help too. I met a guy through the debates society at my old college.

Once you settle in with a group of friends, and get to know people in your classes, then you'll have a chance of finding a girlfriend. Don't go looking so hard... :tongue:

I agree with clarence - just focus on making friends

Pretend to be gay, that always works!

No I promise you it does - come out at school (start wearing pink, walk like you've got a small dog betwen your legs and begin every sentence with 'oh dahling...') then once you get close to a few nice girlies, you can get the one of your choice drunk as a coot, explain that you were just confused, and that you've secretly been harbouring feelings for her...

...I'll leave the rest to your imagination :biggrin:

maybe it is your inability to spell and type correctly which is hindering you.

Do not try to get a girlfriend. Do or do not; there is no try.
