writes: My ex and I have been broken up for a couple months now. She broke up with me and I was/still am heart broken. I feel like the only way I'll be able to completely get over her is if I start dating other girls. A little background: I'm in school and have a decent social life. I do my best to find a party to go to with friends on the weekends. If nothing's going on, I'm content with watching a movie with my roommates. Almost all of my friends in high school were female and a few VERY close guy friends. Now, I have a ton of guy friends at school and almost no female friends.My problem is that I study civil engineering and in a class of 160, there are about 20 girls. There aren't too many attractive girls either. When I go to parties with friends I'm able to talk to girls fairly easy (with the help of a few beers haha).I went to a concert on Friday with a big group of friends. I met a friend of a friend of a friend who was pretty. We were dancing together at the concert and chatting n flirting. At the end of the night, I asked my friends if she was single.. of course not. Saturday, it was kind of a last minute party put together with some friends, but a girl I had never met before was there and by the end of the night we were talking a lot. She too has a boyfriend.This seems to be a frequent occurrence for me. I'll meet a cute girl and she's got a bf. I feel like I'm only attracted to girls that are taken. I'm not too good at starting random conversations with girls in public. I used to be extremely shy.. and I still have a bit of shyness and quietness to me.. at least in public. How else can I meet/talk to girls?

It sounds like you have set standards in what you are looking for. Maybe these standards are set a little to high. Just because a girl isnt your type doesnt mean she cant make you happy in every other aspect you are looking for. I find that almost every one wants what they cant have it's called window shopping. Why not try going to places where girls hang out to meet some like the mall, groccery store, or a bookstore. Tip: we love complaments, gifts, and confidence.
