Money: 1,727 Last Online: 03-16-2010 08:21 AM | Failing to communicate w/girls I'm back again for another rant...let me do my background like I always do...
I'm shy, I've never had a real friend that's a girl...maybe a few aquintences, I haven't had much confidence because I was picked on in HS, didn't go to Senior Ball or Junior Prom. I am a horrible conversationalist.
That should be good enough...I may sound repetitive but I'm not to sure if everyone remembers who is who on this forum.
*********
Anyway...I've been trying really hard to talk to girls, there a 3 that I really like and want to get to know them better, but I've never made friends with a girl in where I can be open with someone.
Now I have talked to the 3 before but mainly about school/classes/tests and until today I haven't really gone outside that.
Today was a little awkward...this one girl I like is in my last class and we left. I saw her behind me when I opened the door and the whole "Thanks. No Problem." occured. I then turned around and said "What's Up?" She responded but then my train of thought kind of froze. A couple seconds later as we were walking down the stairs, I went back to how our class was boring. Then she started talking to the person next to her. We were all in a line kind of walking to our cars and the guy brought up a Halloween Party, he must know her. I made a joke about her getting drunk and she kind of laughed but I wasn't sure if it was a good laugh. I certaintly hope I didn't offend her but she did say that she drinks but doesn't get drunk. Then she veered off to her car because that's where she parked.
About Her - I have talked to her the most out of the 3...she is in 2 of my classes and shares the same type of major...I asked her about what she wanted to do to show I was interested so I'm not sure if she thinks I'm weird or nice.
Before that me and another guy had a conversation with another one of the 3 girls where we all complained about the amount of work, etc...we were on opposite sides of the wall waiting for our class and after a few minutes went by we got a tad personal...we were talking about being addicted to facebook. I said jokingly "I need a hobby." and got a little laugh. We abruptly stopped after a couple of her friends and more people came in the wait.
About Her - I have talked to her a couple of times and failed to really make a good move on the first day since she sat next to me in senior orientation, I tried to say "Hi." but she never said anything back and was with her mom. She seems friendly and outgoing so definitly not me, but can be when I'm around people I know.
And then there is another girl that I see every other day. I haven't really talked to her except for in the moment things, like "ready for this test." or "how did you do." etc...more school convo. She is the easiest out of the 3 to talk to because she gets to school early and waits for about 10-15 mins, like me, but I'm just lost of how to start a convo. with her, like I said I am horrible when it comes to that, I just don't know what to talk about.
About Her - She also seems friendly, maybe shy though too. I haven't had a lot of interacting with her but I just don't know how to approach it.
Anyway the first 2 girls I have as friends on facebook, the 3rd one not yet because I don't want to creep her out. All 3 really don't seem to be interested in me, maybe because I haven't stood out to anyone. I think all 3 girls are attractive so am I trying to do too much.
Also this may be a stupid question but like I've stressed many times, I've never made a realtionship with a girl...when you introduce yourself to her, what do you do, shake, because I think it seems weird.
Thanks for reading and any input you can give will really be appreciated

I dunno, just keep being friends with her. This is what I did back in middle school. Get a girl you can become close friends with, then eventually you will see her friends and start going for her friends. Actually Im doing that right now with 3 diffrent girls. Trying to see which one I click best with.
Good luck bro! |

Good luck bro! | I don't feel like I am even close to at friend level yet, I just don't know how to advance it to more than talking about school |

a. Dont fear that you'll make a mistake with your conversation! This is the number one cause why some people are not good in socializing, their thoughts end up full of "what ifs". Just do it and let it flow.
b. Be yourself.
c. Constant practice. (cannot stress this more) |
