The girls I like always say they don't like me that way so how do I go about not getting rejected, being liked in that way by girls and getting a girlfriend? Reply to this Question Share |

Wow, it could be me writing this! From my teenage years, that is.
I failed entirely during my earlier teenage years to get a girlfriend. As I recall, I asked out something like 10 girls from the age of 13 to 15 and they all said no.
So I stopped. Instead I focused on school, and focused on trying to be a good guy. I spoke to girls and listened to them without any pressure that I'd then ask them out. I know that sounds entirely boring, but that's what I did.
Then when I was 16 I did get a girlfriend.
And since then I've had a handful more. Now I have a really great girlfriend.
The point is, you could be coming across as desperate, or you could be asking too many girls out without really understanding them. So entirely change what you're doing. Stop worrying about getting a girlfriend, and instead really spend time making sure you're a decent, trustworthy guy who can listen to a girl and understand her. You may not get a girlfriend for a while, but chances are it will make you into a better guy and that is something women will appreciate when you get a bit older.
