At the end of the day, looks are everything. A rich 6ft well-built rugby player will win over the nerdy shy guy without a car every time. You're making yourself miserable by chasing the impossible. My advice is find something you enjoy (video games, movies, camping) and focus your energy on that instead.

Let him know what he's doing wrong as something is obviously not right if he's never had a gf by age 22. He doesn't need to hear "just be yourself" for the 100th time from a dismissive online stranger.

My 2 cents (which I am very under qualified to give) - Be more chatty, maybe your a quiet person but you can be chatty without being loud - Start smoking (or maybe vaping), sounds terrible but if your in a busy pub it will be one of the times you can actually engage in conversation - Go out with some female friends if you can, women seem to presume your at least an ok person/not a creep if your hanging around with a few girl (hopefully this doesn't sound creepy I mean go out with people you actually enjoy being around platonically!) - Seem like your having fun/are interesting, nobody wants to hang around somebody with somebody who doesnt want to be there, enthusiasm matters no matter the subject of conversation. - If your a messy/agro drunk don't get completely wrecked, if your not fire away - Confidence is literally everything for guys, I know its useless advice but don't be unconfident, don't presume women don't find you attractive, on that note don't also presume that all women find you attractive either many many won't or are just wanting a fun night out with their friends - Don't treat your interactions with women on a night out as having a goal of scoring them, just have fun and be relaxed. - Try to go to places you feel comfortable in and like the atmosphere off, e,g if your not too preppy head to a rock/indie bar - If you can't dance/ not amazing looking don't be downhearted about no success in nightclub/meat market type places Its all very vague and as I said not exactly that qualified to lecure on this but I think these things would help.

One in her thirties paired off with a 20something Italian potter (), the other with a lad up from Mayo for da match. All four would be 8 or 9 out of 10 if we're doing looks ratings. But yeah, a lot of it is probably bull**** - I hope to God we haven't de-evolved to the point where we're swiping left / right. That is literally back to monkeydom.
