I got girl problems

    I just cannot seem to get girls to like me, I act casual, uncasual(if thats even a word) i wear glasses which seems to be a problem. but Im in good shape, reasonably smart,have good hobbies(soccer, hangin with mates etc.) and I'm 14. But nowadays Girls only seem to go for looks, I tend to go for a balance of god looks and a good personality but whenever I approach a girl in this way it's always the same reply and I quote many here: " Sorry, I don't like you in that way, I'd rather us as friends." but they always ignore me after that and I never hear from them. any advice?

    Yea good advice from Allstar.....you have loads of time just relax and dont get worked up about it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 750 ✭✭✭The Fitz


    As I said, the hormones, especially when everyone seems to be scoring except me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    your 14.. and i'm guessing the girls your askin are too. at that age everyone is quiet fickle when it comes to boy-girl relationships. Try not to worry about it too much, and a little bit of advise, only ask the girl after a while of hanging with her, like a few weeks etc.. and make sure your gettin the right signals of her too..

    Lol.. Scoring.. your only 14 mate..

    On another note....don't believe everything your mates tell you they are up to,young teenage boys tend to spuff alot ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 750 ✭✭✭The Fitz


    Sorry for the confusion, scoring in my eyes (at my innocent age of course) is gettin a "bird"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    I understood what you meant.. Look, I think your gettin to hung over the fact that you got rejected a few times.. I mean it happens, nothin big. Eh, If you dont wanna get reejected, and wanna feel good, in some sick way.. just bail in on some ugly wrecker at the end of whatever you go to.. baby wes? or whatever.. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 750 ✭✭✭The Fitz


    Coincidently, Wes is on next fri and I'm considerin goin for the first time, I don't like "settlin", jus gives people another reason to slag me

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 750 ✭✭✭The Fitz


    it means just taking people who are supposedly "mingers", it gives peeps another reason to slag me, apart from the fact that i have glasses, my big gob****e of a mouth gets me into all sorts of trouble, kingswood are after me for gods sakes

    Your first mistake is worrying about all these people who slag you for the most rediculous of reasons. They're not worth bothering with and believe me they have their own problems and insecurities.

    I've worn glasses for over 14 years and never once been slagged about it. If people are stupid enough to give you grief over it or if "birds" won't "score you" because of your glasses then why the hell are you bothered with them?

    Why in God's name would you want to be around people like that?

    A thing that you need to learn early on in life is not to worry about other people and their small minded crap, do what makes you happy.

    At 14 you should be concentrating on your Junior Cert. or just playing soccer or hanging out with your mates. If you come accross as desperate to girls they won't want you.

    It's all about confidence.

    Now, go study for your Junior Cert.

    Best advice.....be funny and don't show you care. Just treat all girls like they're your mates...have a laugh with them, more importantly, make them laugh. You don't have to impress them but if they enjoy your company and you do indeed make them laugh then the next phase will not be far away. Seriously, number one for a womanis a guy with a sense of humour...I'm telling ya! Although it would be reassuring if some females could back me up on this.

    I bet you have a lot of female friends, but I also bet you're single.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Yeah.. the females are looking for someone who can make them laugh.. 100% true

    I can understand why you're saying that (apart from trying to be funny yourself) but I haven't been single since I was 12.

    Shrimp, there is not much of a difference between 14 and 17, and from reading back over some of Fitzer's posts, he comes across as been more mature than you.

    So, I dont think you are qualified enough to be handing out advise considering you spend every spare hour you have, here annoying people. Maybe you should spend less time on here and go out and try and get a girlfriend yourself.

    There is likely to be gross over-statement as to how far they are getting.

    It's not quite "settlin", consider it practice.

    Anyway.. It's between those ages 14-17 when ppl change the most in that area.. girls become less stuck up.. etc..

    Ok a few points that need to be considered..

    Firstly you're 14 not 34, you have loads of time and as stated before there are other things that are more important.

    Secondly if you're feeling this way then you're probably coming across as a little desperate, this is never attractive. Be yourself and be friendly, talk to the girl, get to know her, find out what she's interested in. If you act and talk to her like a friend then that will increase your chances of it moving past that stage. As I said though you're in no real rush, just enjoy your life.


    As for people who are supposedly "mingers" I'd be very careful about terms that you bandy about, lest they come back to haunt you. Every girl has an attractive quality about them if you look closely enough, if you treat them with more respect then maybe you'll be a step further on your path. Just because you're not overly interested in a particular girl is no reason not to chat with them if the opportunity presents itself, and if you're more worried about what your friends think of potential girlfriends then you are about getting one or getting to know one, then I'm afraid you're already doomed to failure.

    btw whatever your friends say they're up to, a good rule of thumb is to divide their numbers by 3 to get a real number ;)

    I think he was referring to some of your verbiage wrt: Shrimp. I see it as trolling.

    Shrimp - don't feed the trolls and do not make personal insults such as "tosser" for example, please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    ok, it's just that it was coming to him, he started personally insulting me.. and i'm not doing anything to him..

    i wont in future

    but shrimp, i thought it was impossible to make girls laugh (according to your other thread) lol! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Never said that.. I said girls have a very different sense of humour.. comparing to mens...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 729 ✭✭✭crazy angel


    ok, put that in your other thread and you might not get so much sh1t for it!

    ok man, im 15, i used to be exactly like you, i wore glasses and i never got any attention from girls and i was really really shy around them....

    ok, im not saying that you should pretend to be someone youre not, all im saying is that a little change can go a looooong way, you should lose the glasses, glasses are the instant repeller, instant, its a thing in the brain that makes girls completely non interested so i suggest yous hould get contact lenses....

    now you have to treat girls like they are your friends dont just chat up the ones you like and leave all the rest alone... when you make female friends you will have tons of confidence when it comes to talking to woman then you'll get to know their friends and if you like one of them then ask her friends if she likes you, all ways do indirect asking out it just works better and its less harsh coz its not a rejection..

    but do be flirtatious... and i dont have any difference talking to guys and girls now... they're all mates whats the difference really? its just when you have special interests in a woman you kinda do stuff like makin her laugh and say really sweet things haha that works

    my life changd when i got into music... i got a whole nuch of new friends and then they all knew girls then i got to know them and now i have a girlfriend and shes great and im pretty damn happy.. this can happen to you too man

    for some reason when ever i post an opinion on this thing people always tell me to shut the f**k up, y? is it coz im from tralee? coz i'd say the same probably goddamn i hate this place


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 729 ✭✭✭crazy angel


    just readin bout the whole glasses thing, and girls are really evil!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Unless you yourself actually hate your glasses, I wouldn't get rid of them.
    If girls are going to be put off but your glasses then why the hell would you want to be with them in the first place? If someone can be so superficial as that... *shakes head*

    However if your glasses are absolutely hideous and you acknowledge that fact, then just get different ones. I personally like glasses on a guy. (of course this is coming from someone who spends most of her time online, but hey I'm still female damnit)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,552 ✭✭✭Steoob


    ok well yea you say that if a girl doesn't like you coz you wear galasses then y would you like them... but you have to ask yourself if a girl has glasses do you like her? and if not then theres no problem and you should go for the girl who doesn't like glasses, then you'll have soemthing in common haha

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 124 ✭✭marvin2k


    MMMM you sounded like me when I was 14 , the most important thing to do s to have faith , take it as it comes , plenty of time bucko, but if your desperate to act differently just to gob some hair strainghtener , oompa loompa fake tan wanker bitch head then Act like you dont give a **** man, girls just want what they cant have , if you go up and pull a dawsons creek theyl think its too easy and theirs no mystery,no challenge , pretend your not interested , laugh at them when they **** up , be a collin farrell not a dawson . ooze confidence . youl definitely score loads but iul never last a proper relationship cause all this will just be a facade that you wont be able to keep up indefinitely , best be honest to yourself and let the right person fall into your life than acting like a shallow **** to pull the same shallow bitches , dont sell out for girls .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,526 ✭✭✭*adele*


    im 13 and yeah i agree that at around my age girls can be very shallow but dont worry everyone starts at different times...i feel patronizing(sp sorry no idea how to spell it)giving you advice as your older than me but im just trying to help....:)

    Yuck. I was DJing at an under 18s disco in Carlow last week and to see little 13 and 14 year olds in short skirts gettin fingered by little boys....well let's just say when I have kids they won't be going to within a mile of these places.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,526 ✭✭✭*adele*


    yes i refuse to go to "suttonians" which is similar but theres the added bonus of getting to play chasing after getting fingered
