Honestly be yourself, when you're putting too much effort into a conversation, it shows right up, which is not very attractive.

Can I suggest something interlinked with being yourself? Let loose on the humour part, honestly everyone loves a humourous person not just girls. It's easy to talk to someone who is funny, easy-going, and accepting of other people's ideas.

I have a friend who is not the hottest guy around but he is funny as hell and very easy going and laid back and he always has girls after him. He doesn't act funny on purpose either, he is always being himself.

I just got back from a very eventful night at climax, and met a suuuuuuper cute girl. What have YOU done to find a girl lately?

Yeah but it's unlikely she'll return your texts/calls.

There isn't enough data to make that conclusion.

I'm sorry you feel that way, but please don't push your own self limiting beliefs onto others.

Are you speaking from experience or is this arm-chair theorizing? If you are speaking from experience, what is your sample size? 1? 10? 1000? Get more reference experiences and you wont have those self defeating tendencies.

Become an amazing man, and she'll be the one anticipating your texts/calls.

Peace Out

Note: My previous post was meant to be a little tounge-in-cheek. I wasn't bragging or anything but rather giving the op something to leverage so that he can take action and have his own adventures. I am a bit of a narcissist though so take anything I say with a grain of salt.

People sometimes hear "Be yourself", and they think that if they just continue what they're doing, i.e. not talking to anyone, playing xbox all day and not having any hobbies, that they'll magically land a girlfriend.

The absurdity here should be apparent without any elaboration.

Try online dating! I've heard from some friends of mine that okcupid.com actually has a fair amount of mac students on it and the people they've been chatting too are interesting, nice and good looking people!

This is kind of unrelated, but if this girl is always wanting to study together with me (even though she has smarter friends in that class), is she interested?

Every time this thread gets bumped, someone new logs into Chat and is disappointed.

More than likely, yes she is
