Depressed :(

I have no real reason to feel depressed but I do.

I guess what is getting me down is the fact that I cant seem to get girls that I am interested in - interested in me. But the girls I am not interested in, I get them into me. My self-esteem has been hurt a bit and I just feel bad because I end up rejecting them.

Currently I have been asked out by three different girls. One of which I rejected...a couple of days later she saw me with another girl who I arranged to meet up with alone and now I am just playing around with this one e.g. she asked me what day is good for me for dinner... because I don't want to hurt her by commiting in a long term relationship- only to find that somewhere down the line a girl who I am really physically attracted too ends up liking me. Another girl I know, I was harmlessly flirting with her, then I got a text like 2 days ago with her asking me for a date to the cinema. (pretty unexpected, as I jokinly asked her out when I saw a couple of days before for a date and she said yes, to which I replied "yeah I can see by your bodylanguage your not serious :wink: ", she said "yeah your right", a couple of days later she is inviting me out alone with her...she played hard to get). Another girl I know played hard to get with me, eventually asked me out to play pool with her - but I rejected her by saying I was busy, because she made a stupid excuse up when I previously arranged a date with her. I didn't want to show her I was easy to get....We saw each other later that evening and she was v happy to see me etc. (I do want to date this one, but she is away currently)

This is frustrating me, because I won't do anything unless I really like the girl. The paradox is the girls I do like tend to be really full of themselves and blow me off. I guess they know they are pretty so act like that. I have had attention from very good looking girls in the past, but it is less frequent. I messed up with them because at the time I didn't know how to act around girls. Now the girls have not been type, these girls are drawn to me so easily. I don't have to do much.

Feel unsatisfied at the moment, I am saving my first proper kiss and my virginity for someone really special, but the longer I wait - the more furstrated I get. Girls obviously like me, but it is just hard to find the right one, feel like I will be doing this forever at this rate.

You do seem very feminine which is cool - don't worry about rejecting people, it's a fact of life and they'll get over it. Just relax and if someone is playing hard to get, then don't think anything of it, girls do that. It's ok for a guy to be easy, but not a girl.
