Hey, I'm getting sick of never being asked out by guys. My friends have a different guy every bloody week which I know is just desperate and isn't what I want. Howevr, some attention now and again wouldn't go amiss. For the record, I'm not ugly, fat, socially inept or any like that. Anyone else feel like this?


It's the cliché thing to say. But why don't you do a bit of the flirting yourself? It's damned hard for most guys to start chatting girls up for fear of rejection.

If not just wait... time will take it's course and you will meet somebody.

Oh my God a cliché that doesn't make me want to spank someone.

I know how you feel, i used to be really quiet and nobody ever spoke to me and i had such low confidence. I never opened my eyes/ears and realized the blokes were wolf-whistling at me!
I had such low confidence that i just assumed that everyone thought i was ugly and no one would ever like me. Then, when i went to sixth form college i opened up, learnt to enjoy myself and to enjoy having a laugh and people just flocked to me. I started to notice boys looking at me. You have to learn to talk to people and not feel awkward or that ur going to embaress urself. I used to worry i was going to make a fool of myself and spent ages thinking about what i would say, now i just say the first thing that comes into my head....sometimes it makes me seem ditzy because i say something silly but it makes me more approachable i think. I think people were scared of me when i was quiet, because they didnt know what to say.

I hate clichés. I spank people who use them. But I don't hate the one you used. Though it doesn't seem like much of a cliché to me. So yeah, I guess it could be construed as a compliment.

That's the worst advice I've ever heard.

Nothing in this life is free, and no one is going to do anything for you, so get off of your arse and go do something!

How about when you're noticed by guys, but it's only ever guys who want sex?? They never want anything else, so not fun.
But yeah as people said, just flirt a bit, be confident in yourself - and i know that sounds like a cliche but it is true, when you give off confidence, other people notice it and gravitate towards you.
