to respond to you all,
being MYself doesn't work, because my personality is not wanted by many at all

Being someone else doesn't work well either. It just makes it all harder in the long run. Besides, your personality can't be that bad.

[Gamefreak]

So Dr? Pretending to be someone else to get a girl who wouldn't like you in the first place hardly seems fair does it?

[DW]

I suppose it could depend on the situation. Just as long as it's not like those guys on Springer who find out their wife/husband is really a man/woman.

Also, I'm sure being a pessimist about it really helps the situation.

If a person doesn't like you for who you are then they aint worth it.

im to scared to tell the guy i like that i actually like him... so im in a bit of a pickle  (that is how the saying goes... right??)

Me too! I hate it, with any guy usually I can just go up and talk to them easily, but when it comes to the one I like, I get all nervous, it sucks.

Flirting then not flirting. V_V SO CONFUSED.

another lie of the world, that never works

I also read somewhere that women have an uncanny sense of detection. If you have a facade around you, they can sniff it out. It may sound like a generalization, so a verification about that would be nice. ;)

I can tell if people are faking, if that's what you mean... er, I watch people, so I notice changes in actions and clothing and speech. It's not that hard...

Back on subject, well, I have some advice: Don't be afraid to be picky looking for someone... personality-wise. If you don't care, you'll get a crappy boyfriend/girlfriend.

...I would probably offend anyone who cooked for me by smelling my food for poison beforehand. o_o

[Bboy94]

Is that all I'm doing wrong?

idk, but yea, I kinda like two girls right now, I'm not really sure which one I like better though, both are cool in their own little ways.

[MagmarFire]

Man, this has been out cold for days. :P

Anyway, last Friday, I met these girls...four, I think. They recognized me because I did the Napoleon Dynamite dance at the school (many times more than I wanted to, no less :P ), and they gave me their MySpace URLs (I don't have one myself, so it's kind of useless for me to reply to them...kinda busy on the Internet as it is, what with being a moderator at this forum, a co-administrator at another one, and a member at another) and their phone numbers.

The thing is, though...there's only one of them who I'm interested in, and luckily, she gave me her cell phone number. But even so, I'm a shy guy, and I get nervous before talking to any girl who I hardly know and gives me her number.

Advice, anyone? :-\

[darkphantomime]

Let me put this in a very clear manner...

[size=15]GO OUT WITH HER, PICK UP THAT FREAKING PHONE AND DIAL THEM DIGITS!!!!![/size]

Ahem. I haven't been too well lately, I've spent all this time being a coward, and I've been afraid of everything. But if there is one thing I can say, do NOT miss your oppurtunity, take it while you still have it or you'll regret it.

[JDog]

I would say, just get myspace, and add them, if you ask me, its easier talking to a girl on the internet then in person or on phone, but yea, if your interested in the one girl, I say go for her man, and if she is nice and hott, I'd really say, Go for her, XD

[Rev Rabies]

whenever you feel nervous, do what i do, slap yourself. hard. trust me, even though it sounds dumb, it helps A LOT

[MagmarFire]

Thanks for the advice, you guys. ;)

I'll also try to remember your technique, Dr. It does sound more effective than freezing up as a defense.
