[QUOTE="LiKral, post: 1773745, member: 16951"] If you want to date the pretty girls, you have to dress like one of the cute guys. Simple. It is the same as if you were going for a job interview - a suit may not be 'you' but the alternative is not getting the job you want. Everyone puts on a bit of a mask to deal with the world. (When I say that you have to dress well, I don't mean "change your personal style" - just make sure your clothes are clean, fit you, and don't have holes in.) It seems as if you have a few separate problems that add up to lack of date. 1) You are not willing to sacrifice any time to improve your personal appearance. As Heinlein said, "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch." If you did not do any work would you expect good grades? You have to put in time and effort to get the things you want in life. You will just have to get up a little earlier in the morning. If you would not get up 20 minutes earlier to get your heart's desire, maybe you should ask yourself whether it really is your heart's desire? It might not be. 2) You are so afraid of rejection that you will not approach the girls you like. That way you will only get dates with telepathic ladies. ASK THEM!Say "Would you like to go for coffee after class?" or something nice and safe like that. The worst you can get is "no thanks". 3) You want instant gratification. It just doesn't work like that. You won't get your degree in only 6 weeks either, no matter how bright you are! Oh and - if you take 'no' for an answer, no one will think you are a stalker. It is just the guys who ask the same girl for a date 27 times that seem creepy. Good luck and keep at it! [/QUOTE]
