Single and finding it hard to get a girl.

March 3, 2009 10:35am CST
I am single and trying to find a girlfriend. I have always been known as the nice guy and never seem to get far with this as it seems to be the bad guys who treat women like crap that seem to get the girls. Would it be best for me to try this tactic as being the nice, dependable guy isn't working. Im not ugly although a little over weight and im always given the excuse "if i had met you first". What are your thoughts.

My thoughts are that it's just a waiting game; eventually you'll find a girl who will appreciate you for all that you are && won't care that you're overweight or "the nice guy". It's all in a matter of time, as corny as it sounds.

Yea. Everyone has a destiny and I honestly believe from my peers that a true partner will come unexpected so don't try to prepare to get with a girl or anything of that sort. If it wasn't meant to be, it wasn't meant to be. But all you could be is to just be yourself.

i hear you man! i have the same problems. i was raised with a very strict set of parents who beat respect into me to the point that i am horrible in relationships. that, and i am just not very romantic and cant make small talk. what do you expext from a guy who joined the military at 19 and is more rough around the edges than not?

Maybe you should check your social circle first. How many girls are there in your social circle? Are some of them possible to be your grilfriend? If you know very few girls, I don't think that will be easy to find a girlfriend. Then you might get to know as many girls as possible. Secondly, you must focus the one you really like. Don't back off if you like her very much. And learn some romantic tricks. lol Good guys also need to know how to present themselves. You think?

The idea that girls don't like "nice guys" and only go for the bad ones that treat them like crap is somewhat of a misconception. The problem is that girls want a little bit of a chase, and you have to keep their attention. If they don't have to put any work into getting you to like them, where's the fun and excitement? My advice to you is don't "try" to get a girlfriend. Just let it happen and don't act desperate (not saying that you are).
