writes:I am currently attending a small boarding school with a rigorous curriculum that consumes most of my life. Coming from a class just shy of 50 students there is not much of a dating pool. I am about to graduate and go home for the summer before I start college, but I do not know many people in my hometown (or at least the people I do know I have not really seen in years) and I am not involved in anything there since I am never there. I have been on an almost year long dry spell and I need some advice on how to meet girls in an town where I don't really know anyone and the people I do know I feel awkward around because I haven't talked to them in so long. It is also important to note that I am from a very small town with not a whole lot going on, civilization over an hour away, and with many backwards country people (due to this I would not want anything serious from anyone from here).

 Talk to everyone you can, except for the people that look like they want to hurt you, lol.
Oddly enough that's how i found my soon to be girlfriend(long story) sort of. Never would of met her otherwise. Just try to communicate and network with people. Even if you don't have any interest in them personally. You never know who might have a attractive friendly cousin in a closet somewhere.

 My brother had the most amazing luck with meeting girls at your age because he was a lifeguard at the local pool. There were all ages of people too, and he got to know a lot of them. Do you have a summer job lined up?
Just talk to everyone you meet. Don't feel awkward simply because you've been away. Act friendly and open to people, and they will respond in the same way.
One thing, do your best to hide your disdain for the town and the inhabitants. People pick up on that kind of thing and it will work against you.
Good luck with school and your summer!

The next time you see a pretty girl that you like, say "hello". Try to work on being friendly but casual with women. By casual I don't mean treat them indifferently, just work on being friendly to almost everyone you meet in a casual way (not off putting by being aggressive).
The men with the most thriving dating life are the men that have mastered this talent. Be friendly and charming with everyone, man or woman, and eventually the signals you put out will attract a member of the opposite sex who no doubt will be looking for someone like you.
Good luck!
