I am 22 and have never had a date or even been asked out. I feel like there's something really wrong with me. I am not outgoing like other girls and I am definetly not nearly as pretty. I just feel really down about this. What is wrong with me?

Okay this is gonna sound really cliché, but you need to love yourself... Hehe let me explain.

Find good stuff about you, things you think someone could be attracted to; have you ever had a crush or something like that? Have you ever noticed that when it happens, even small details and quirks about the person can be appealing to you? So you have to do the same thing, and look at yourself as if through the eyes of someone who's in love with you. I know it seems a bit narcissistic, but it'll make you so happy just to be yourself, and it'll bring out the best in you! And do you know what happens when you like yourself? You want to share that interest with other people! :P

Well it will probably take a bit more time than that, and it will need some work. As the others said, try being a bit more outgoing, try learning more about and from other people. Good luck!

ShiShisAdvice agony auntMen like women who look like girls. Get a makeover. Looks matter.And NEVER ask a guy out! Read the book He's just not that into you, and follow it! I did and it works. But my best male guy friend said "He'll worry about the money, you worry about your appearance." Notice the girls at the gym and how intense they work out? They HAVE to look good. Simple really.Truth hurts.

You should really get out there sometimes. Do fun stuff... put on make-up, dress nice. Honey, I have so many guys it's not funny, and believe it or not I was always the girl to get picked on as fat, ugly, and stupid. But I made it through. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger!!!!!

There's nothing wrong with you. I'm 25 and never been out on a date or in fact I NEVER go out at all. I'm very insecure and extremely shy and have on confidence to the extent I have no friends at all. I'd suggest you ask a fella out and see what happens.

You might come across to people as a little insecure and that might stop guys from approaching you.

Have a little faith in yourself.

Nothing's wrong with you. I think it might be a case of you needing to ask someone out, as Tennisstar88 says, or you needing to be more outgoing so guys know you're wanting to be approached.

Guys won't approach a girl who they think isn't interested.
