writes: Ok. I'm 20 years, and I never have been on a date. Not even just for hanging out. My whole life I have been a nerd and I often was not seen as very attractive by most people growing up. I didn't date in high school cause all the girls seemed more interested in all the jocks and playas. But I'm not bad looking. I am slim, very artistic, and talented in other cases. Not that I'm in college, I really would like to start dating. Many of the girls seem much more mature and open-minded than the girls I remembered from high school. Anyways, can someone give me some dating advice like, how to approach a girl when she likes me or perhaps some advice on how you know when a girl likes you? I am rather shy and I never been on a date or even hung out with a girl in any other place than school.

I was a late bloomer date-wise too.
If I were you, I'd certainly hang out with other girls are likely to be. Strike up conversations and keep things casual. If girls sense you are desperate, they'll be frightened off.
It is important to begin generating an interest in social activities... take up dancing lessons, join a social activity on campus, or what not.
It is just a matter of getting exposure... the girls will come running if you hang out where they are.
Good luck.

Wow! Those are some pretty sexy qualities already! Don't sweat it. Remember that not all us girls think alike, we're not all the same. Just because some girls like to be treated bad, or some like to be a dominatrix doesn't mean that it applies for all. That is an error I have found on dates, that men act according to what they think will attract the girl. I've had some jerks in my time, and they think that is what is attracting me but it's the complete opposite. I do agree with other people, be yourself, and by being yourself you'll attract the right girl for you. Believe me there are girls like me that like guys that haven't had previous experience, just like there are girls that like guys that know their way around.Good Luckand more importantly have fun and enjoy the date even if it doesn't work out, you can end up with cool friend that can present you to more girls.

I think you should take things slow since you havnt had much interaction with women you should start by becoming friends with some but dont become to friendly with girls your interested in or they will see you as just a friend.Go to parties or clubs basically any event where women will be,Theres usually some sort of college events going on aswell.once you find something say there's a party on friday on tuesday you can ask a girl if she has plans for friday, theres gotta be at least one female in your life start hanging out with her more.
