[QUOTE=CommanderPT;42543425]You can't possibly have such strange interests that make them embarrassing to talk about. I play a pen and paper game that is basically Dungeons & Dragons in the Warhammer 40k universe. I buy tiny plastic soldiers and paint them. I'm not ashamed of that, it is fucking fun. I'll say that to any one if it fits the conversation. I might not tell them that my character was too poor to hook up with a space hooker and I could only afford a hug (Space hug?) but you get the idea. :v:[/QUOTE] That's at least a semi productive use of time. If I'm not gaming I'm either posting on Facepunch or researching military equipment.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42543429]I literally don't know how to get a conversation to that point anyway. I'm afraid to ask girls questions about their interests because I know it will get to a point where she asks about mine, and then the inner neckbearded loser comes out and starts ranting about tanks and guns and military aircraft.[/QUOTE] Who doesn't like military stuff...if a girl rejects you cuz of that, she's not good to start with anyway.
[QUOTE=UncouthJungle;42543416]You don't have to jump on my face..tyhmä ruottalaine.[/QUOTE] Well I didn't mean to start shit, it just seems kinda obvious that everybody is different and therefore will have different preferences in terms of what qualities they want in a potential mate.
[QUOTE=UncouthJungle;42543458]Who doesn't like military stuff...if a girl rejects you cuz of that, she's not good to start with anyway.[/QUOTE] I live in Canada. Even in the most socially conservative and pro-gun part of Canada, which is where I live, having an interest in that stuff is still weird, as I learned from high school.
[QUOTE=UncouthJungle;42543458]Who doesn't like military stuff...if a girl rejects you cuz of that, she's not good to start with anyway.[/QUOTE] i dont think a girl has ever said "i like you alot, but we can't date because you like tanks"
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42543437]That's at least a semi productive use of time. If I'm not gaming I'm either posting on Facepunch or researching military equipment.[/QUOTE] Well then you just have to go out and do stuff. A few years ago I didn't do anything specific either other than playing videogames. Well I'm still addicted to the digital crack that is videogames but still. Just think of something that you have always wanted to try and then set out to do it. I don't mean take over the world and become space emperor. (Mostly because that is my plan) Something small, like learning an instrument, trying out a new sport or whatever. I'm about to buy my first electric guitar and get going with that because I've always liked guitars but never got around to learning it. So I figured why the fuck not?
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42543478]I live in Canada. Even in the most socially conservative and pro-gun part of Canada, which is where I live, having an interest in that stuff is still weird, as I learned from high school.[/QUOTE] ok buddy well you have to take a chance of talking to girls about shit you like because eventually you'll find one thats interested in the same shit

You'll probably get some funny looks at first but fuck it, at least you're talking with people. Again, keyword being [i]with[/i]. If you can tell that they're bored of listening to you, that means you've started rambling and should probably ask them a question or something.
[QUOTE=Dirtie;42543468]Well I didn't mean to start shit, it just seems kinda obvious that everybody is different and therefore will have different preferences in terms of what qualities they want in a potential mate.[/QUOTE] Well, what i wanted to know what other users think about women, not what the "obvious" thing is.
you should try finding a few more interests in life man
[QUOTE=Bobie;42543484]i dont think a girl has ever said "i like you alot, but we can't date because you like tanks"[/QUOTE] Pretty sure these kind of women do exist.
[QUOTE=hunterNormandy;42543530]maybe if you had some kind of obsession with tanks. like had a pet toy tank that you even gave a name or something... which would end in some sort of intervention "It's either me or the tank, choose".[/QUOTE] "Okay babe, I give up. Sure, I choose you. You are right. Yeah I love you too. Honey, can I call you tank in bed?"
[QUOTE=hunterNormandy;42543530]maybe if you had some kind of obsession with tanks. like had a pet toy tank that you even gave a name or something... which would end in some sort of intervention "It's either me or the tank, choose".[/QUOTE] Maybe yeah, but like i said: Doesn't matter what you like, there'll still be someone who will reject you because of it.
[QUOTE=UncouthJungle;42543554]Maybe yeah, but like i said: Doesn't matter what you like, there'll still be someone who will reject you because of it.[/QUOTE] the reasons people get rejected are a big list of things and are not all down to the fact you like military hardware its usually because you either 1) have nothing in common with them or 2) they are not attracted to you whatsoever or a mixture of both
Ok, I'm not that weird, I don't get sexually aroused by tanks. And I guess it's not the weirdest thing out there. I could collect dragon dildos or something. I guess my problem is I want to try to seem more interesting than I actually am but that's something that's hard to fake. I also feel kind of weird with people in my age group because I don't like drinking and partying but that's pretty much what an average 19-20 year old does for fun.
[QUOTE=sam6420;42543677]General rule of thumb for me: If somebody rejects you over something you like or judges you, they're probably not worth your time.[/QUOTE] but what if they have a super fly booty and I really want to get up in that every time I holla at a ho she gets aggro what do I do
- Oops.
[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;42543692]but what if they have a super fly booty and I really want to get up in that every time I holla at a ho she gets aggro what do I do[/QUOTE] You are not gonna be talking to her booty all the time.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42543615] [B]I guess my problem is I want to try to seem more interesting than I actually am[/B] but that's something that's hard to fake. I also feel kind of weird with people in my age group because I don't like drinking and partying but that's pretty much what an average 19-20 year old does for fun.[/QUOTE] Just stop right there. Do not try to be somebody else god damn it. That is the worst thing you can do. Just be yourself. Most repeated advice ever but it is also the one people refuse to listen to.
[QUOTE=MuffinZerg;42543717]You are not gonna be talking to her booty all the time.[/QUOTE] don't underestimate me son
You just need to be yourself, otherwise your not going to attract anyone who is actually interested in you. They are just going to like persona you put off, and if you stop acting like that then they won't be interested anymore.

HAVING CONVERSATIONS so just fucking talk to people, yes some people aren't going to get along with you, but it doesn't matter what your interests are to just have a conversation [editline]16th October 2013[/editline] the fact that you happen to be in the same place at the same time as the person you're talking to (especially if it's a class or job or something) already means you have at least a few things in common. maybe you aren't going to end up in an intimate relationship with a random person from your class but that's not what you should be trying for right now until you learn to take care of yourself. just talk to people and stop worrying about where conversations lead, because most of them will lead to dead ends but it doesn't mean talking to the person in the first place was any less worthwhile.
Where am I supposed to find girls who don't have friends? It's literally impossible for me to talk to them if they already gave a friend taking all of their attention.
no it's not... you don't need to be one-on-one to have a conversation...
[QUOTE=Guy Mannly;42545699]no it's not... you don't need to be one-on-one to have a conversation...[/QUOTE] I feel awkward jumping into conversations unless they're people I'm already friends with. I prefer having one on one conversations.
This might sound like a stupid question, but what's the age that you guys had your first kiss? I haven't had mine yet and I don't think I'm likely to for a long time soon. :tinfoil:
if you want to do something then do it. the only thing stopping you is you. if you want to meet new people then TALK TO THEM and stop fishing for excuses why you can't. [editline]16th October 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=benbb;42545734]This might sound like a stupid question, but what's the age that you guys had your first kiss? I haven't had mine yet and I don't think I'm likely to for a long time soon. :tinfoil:[/QUOTE] it doesn't matter when, there's no such thing as too late.
And what about the mythical girls who like shy guys? How do I attract them if they're even real?
by talking to them???? [editline]16th October 2013[/editline] stop waiting for the world to drop a relationship in your lap, if you really give a shit about finding a girlfriend then fix your own fucking life before you try and ruin someone else's
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42542584]It's just something that happens. I go on Facebook, see everyone having fun, feel like I'm not as good as them.[/QUOTE] well you're not because you don't try to go out and change it or anything, and instead you mope about life rather than try to move on from where you are out of fear [editline]16th October 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Taepodong-2;42543429]I literally don't know how to get a conversation to that point anyway.
