How could I change myself?

Dont. Never try to change who u are! Embrace it and you'll attract the right people
i am 21, soon to be 22. i finished uni, i am still a virgin, havent even kissed a girl yet. i am indian, so in my culture that is frowned upon pretty heavily, so i cant bring a girl home etc. however, i have stopped worrying about it, from what i have been seeing being in a relationship is a lot more effort than i am currently willing to put in. i am still applying to medical school, i am on a masters programme, still wanting to go to oxbridge. i feel like i have a lot on my plate right now. so if i find someone along the way, so be it. if not, i dont really care for the timebeing. i am likely to be pretty busy for the next 5 years or so anyways. and i want to sort out my own academic and financial situation before i try taking on a challenge like a relationship

honestly i don't think you should need to, be yourself but try and meet different girls cause you're not hanging out with the right ones for you.
if you are a genuinely nice person then i have no idea why girls aren't into you :smile:

NEVER BE A NICE GUY
One of the most attractive qualities is simply 'self-confidence'. That's what being 'bad' is sometimes mistaken for...not the same at all. Agree with many of the previous comments - no sense in changing what is the 'essential you' - else, you won't end up with who you're actually meant to be with...

The best thing you can do is keep talking to people and pursuing your interests, and hopefully through this you will meet more like-minded people with similiar interests to you. Being nice is likely not going to be a deal breaker for most girls, although if you're nice to the point of being a "pushover" then that might be putting people off. Most likely other factors are at play such as your approach or the levels of physical attraction. Whilst it might just be the case that every girl you've approached isn't interested in you because you're nice there are most likely other reasons, even if that's not what they're telling you. It could for example be that the girls you're attracted to just aren't attracted to you, which naturally will happen to everyone, as not everyone is attracted to everyone.

In my experience though you have nice guys who are genuinely just nice, and then the "nice guys" who lack the self-awareness to truly understand why their approach isn't working and instead put down all of their romantic misfortune to them just being too nice and girls just wanting an abusive "lad" character who puts them down and doesn't respect them. These tend to act nice on the surface but when you dig a little deeper they really aren't. In either case it's best to consider other reasons besides just being nice.

Well, I am actually working on building my self-confidence. Is that all I need when girls say they like the bad boy/lad types?
