Do you have a group of friends that you could hang out with? Or perhaps a hobby, an activity where you could go out and meet new people? I found that being socially active, even not in a romantic way, could help alleviate this urge to find someone to have a relationship with.[/QUOTE]
I would recommend more pictures, but other than that, nice profile. You come off as being very fancy.

I've thought of that, but I have a hard time getting interested in making friends, besides I barely know anyone and there is nothing to do in my town to meet new people. It's a terrible place to live in if your goal is to make friends especially if you are already sorta asocial.
I find daisy ridley (the main character from star wars) really attractive

It's not bad, but you definitely need more pictures. Preferably in nice, well lit areas and a few outdoors, if you can. People tend to steer away from profiles where all the pictures are of someone in their room.
Also your answers are a little wordy. I would cut them down a little bit because most people don't have the patience to sit and read when most of the first impression comes from pictures. I'd just edit those a little but otherwise, it looks good.

Yeah, I'd do that but I don't have a lot of pics of myself, my friends and I don't often take pictures and when we do it's usually during parties, so not really presentable stuff.
I've got some from a gala I've been to a few weeks ago, not sure if those are really suitable tho, don't want to come off as any fancier considering I most certainly won't live up to that.
Nah just take pics of yourself when you're out and about or in your car or something.
Nothing wrong with some selfies, as long as they're nice looking. It's less awkward than having a friend take a picture of you out of nowhere.
how do i grow facial hair

Oh OK then that's cool, was wondering how the hell I could ask that without coming off as weird.

Well, do you shave? If you do then stop.

Yeah I don't ask people to take pics of me outta nowhere unless I'm like... at the zoo or something and I wanna take a picture WITH something. Mostly I just take pictures of myself.
It's funner that way because I'm a little more in control of how I look in 'em rather than someone taking an unflattering candid shot..

Isn't the point of having pictures with other people to show that you're sociable though?
Well sure, but you can also take selfies with other people lol.
Though don't get a selfie stick, that's weird.
if we ever talk about life regrets remind me to tell you guys about the time Amanda bynes asked me out and I blew her off because I still hate myself for that years later

Tell me more
I've had some issues with contacting the girl I like the past few days since she suddenly just disappeared after christmas eve. at first she stopped opening my snaps so I was a little scared to contact her since I saw that she had been active on facebook, I figured I was being ignored. luckily I spoke to a good friend of us both and she told me she hadn't opened her snaps either. then she stopped coming on facebook, nor did she answer text messages either.
I had this friend over today and we figured we'd try to contact her through other means. we contacted a friend of her, who we thought was her dad but was her mother, and then she called our friend. she said she had a panic attack on christmas eve and that something had happened in the family which made her feel like shit so she proceeded to isolate herself. we asked if she wanted to meet us tomorrow, but she'd have to wait and see.
I voiced some concerns to my friend who was with me about me being unsure about her, how I was worried she was thinking too much of her ex still and that I felt I should give up which she proceeded to tell her without me knowing after she left just now. the girl I like said back that she really likes me and that she should tell me, but that she wasn't feeling really well right now and wasn't able to think clearly due to everything happening.
it was nice to hear that, it helps with the over thinking. I'm still worried since I haven't seen her in 8 days and I don't want that crush to disappear before something happens, I'm scared it'll pass as easily as it arrived. hopefully she's feeling up to meeting us tomorrow
[editline]28th December 2015[/editline]
new years eve is pretty much cancelled for me too at this point. two friends of ours who were invited who are also a couple argued, and the girl in the relationship is incredibly jealous. the guy went over to my place with me and the friend who was over today and the girl lashed out at us for being with him. she has told us she wants to cut contact permanently with us since she's so jealous. if that happens or not, no idea. this means that they're not coming to my place to celebrate, which means a friend of theirs aren't coming either. that leaves me, the girl who was at my place today and the girl I like. unfortunately the girl I like doesn't want to come if we're gonna be so few so she's heading over to another persons place to celebrate which leaves only two of us. she said we could come over too which I'm going to think of, but I'm not feeling up to meeting complete strangers at the time. feeling anxious about it.
[editline]28th December 2015[/editline]
aaand a good friend of mine is pissed at me for saying I didn't know what was happening at new years eve yet. I have no idea why she got so mad, but she resorted to insults and attacks to make sure I felt ill when all I did was politely tell her I wasn't sure what I was going to do at new years eve.

pft selfie sticks are fun
the moment you pull one out everyone's reaction is priceless ranging from "I can't believe..." to "you're the best"
and then you all use it anyways and everyone's like "hey let me use it"

Ok facepunch.
I need some motivation or advice. Specially from the feminine side. I'm a bit rusty on the dating scene and the very thought of asking this girl out or planning on doing so is making me sweat spaghetti.
There's this girl and she's driving me crazy. Don't really know why, but I've seen her a few times and I'm completely crazy about her. I just feel so rusty on the dating field I have no fucking clue how to act other than fixing bayonets and go full frontal assault.
At the risk of sounding dumb let me explain in a serious fashion:
I used to hang out with this group from a town nearby before and during my first years in university. But for some reason, the group kinda diverged a bit due to some inner conflicts, my studies prevented me from hanging out more, then I had my period of depression and isolation and shit and I pretty much lost a bit of contact with them other than seeing them in the same festivals I used to frequent.
The thing is, as soon as I drop out of the group I start seeing this really cute girl hanging out with them the whole time. For a while I've really been mustering the courage to just start talking to her, but then I started dating my ex and gave up on that idea.
Then my ex, got involved with another guy and I said to myself "well fuck it, I'm gonna add her out of the blue on facebook" and I did and started talking to her. We talked about how i added her out of the blue and I explained myself, saying I saw her a lot hanging out with my friends. And for my surprise she said she remembers me too and was a bit curious about me too.
And then me and my ex got back together (stupidest shit I've ever done), and I haven't talked to her since we broke up for good.
Our last conversation was with the same motive, was nice but I was still so upset about the breakup that I wasn't really being able to bring much content to the conversation after a while and I also had some tests coming up so I pretty much let the conversation die. It was a good conversation nonetheless.
The thing is, she lives in the capital and I live half an hour away. I don't know her personally, I'm just intrigued and I want to know more but I am also rusty as fuck in the dating game. For some reason I want to know her, she seems nice, I loved our conversations and she pretty much has a lot of things in common with me when it comes to music. So I want to ask her out but I'm scared as shit.
This girl is beautiful and has a lot of guys posting and liking when, for example, she changed her profile picture. But she doesn't seem to feed them much hope. I don't get on that game though. However this intimidates me even further because, I want to stand out from being just some guy.
I've talked about this with a couple of feminine friends and they are all saying that I'm complicating to much and all I need is to grow a pair and after another conversation on facebook ask her out for something casual like a coffee. "There may be a lot of guys on her facebook behind the keyboard but I bet very few actually got the balls to ask her out, so do it" - they say - "you're cute and funny, just ask her out and see how she makes you feel".
I'm fucking scared, guys. I've been so misanthropic for these last years that I feel like I completely lost my touch in the matter. I only did something like this once with an ex of mine. I knew her from a forum, started talking to her and next thing I knew we were talking a lot and I asked her out and things started working out great.
She's not online right now, but I'm thinking about talking to her and ask her out, but the very thought of it is making my heart race.
This is driving me crazy. What do I do?

You nut up and talk to her dude. Say hey, its been a while since you spoke and you know she lives in the capital, you're looking to head out there and try some new things and you're looking for fun things she likes to do, or whatever. It doesn't matter, you just need to put yourself out there. Say you're going to be in the capital and you'd like to get to know her better, does she want to get a coffee or similar.
Think of it this way - the more scared you are, the more rewarding it will be when you pull it off. You're never going to get your confidence back if you refuse to take risks - taking a risk and having it pay off is one of the best ways of giving your self esteem and confidence a positive kick. At the end of the day, as much of a cliche as this is, you won't regret having tried, but you will regret not trying.
Just do it, you have nothing to lose m8

alright
so you guys are familiar with the show the Biggest Loser, right? they have a ranch thing in malibu that's related to the show but afaik isn't where they film it, although it's right next to The Bachelor house so for all i know they film it there
ANYWAY my mom likes to go once a year or so, not because she's overweight but because it's basically boot camp, it's brutal as hell and really hard and half the people that go aren't even fat they're just out of shape or not disciplined at all. so the last time she went they were like "hey we're running a special so if you want to come back you can spend a week here for like $300" which is fucking insane and happens a lot during the slower times of the year
so anyway she sent me so i'm there working my ass off (and it's embarrassing because I don't have nearly the work ethic of a dude that weighed about 600 pounds, that guy was a fucking machine and weighed about four times as much as I did) and apparently during the specials are when the celebs come out because i ran into amanda bynes (who completely ignored me and everyone else for like four days) and penny marshall, who took a weird liking to me and was fun to talk to but she's not the point of this story
ANYWAY so amanda was kind of minding her own business and pretending she wasn't there, i assume she didn't really want to be there but was sent there. eventually though we ended up going hiking together (not just the two of us but it was the two of us and a group of people) and during the hike my natural charm opened her up and we talked and she laughed and it was neat but i didn't think anything of it
so we hung out for a few days and then i was scheduled to leave, so I left and thought that was that. well i was wrong because later that night i get a text "hey, it's amanda" which was weird because I didn't give her my number, but apparently SHE ASKED FOR IT FROM SOMEONE ELSE. i will let that sink in for just a second because i didn't believe it then and i still don't, really, although it's done wonders for my self esteem
so we talked for a while and it turned out she was pretty cool and i was trying to not ruin anything because she's basically a childhood hero of mine in terms of comedy. she normally lives in LA or something but this was two years ago and she was just post-meltdown so at the time she was living in Irvine (relatively close to me) and going to community college, I think (which is ridiculous and hilarious to me) and in a few months she was heading back to LA to go to fashion school or something (I don't have her number or texts anymore but she sent me a few sketches and they were pretty good so I think if she ends up doing that she could do well)
so anyway when we were both back at home she asked me if i wanted to go hiking because she wanted a hiking buddy so we did that a few times and then a few weeks later we did it and she was like "hey since you're here do you want to go do something after the hike? i've been here for a while but haven't really explored anything, you could show me around" and to my eternal shame i said something like "oh that'd be fun but i can't do anything tonight, i've gotta go do some bullshit that doesn't matter" (that's probably paraphrased)
anyway that seemed to annoy her and it sort of dwindled from there and eventually we stopped talking and the fact that i'm pretty sure i could have slept with amanda bynes will haunt me until my dying days
