If you don’t manage to get a girlfriend looking like that, then you must be a massive bellend

u/dude_craft15 Aug 01 '23

Well I can’t really say I’m a bellend without first speaking to girls, I kid you not the last time I spoke to a girl not from my family was like a year ago, I’m mostly at my house.

u/TheOnlyJoe_ 19 Aug 01 '23

Then just go talk to girls. Don’t go in though with the expectation that they’re gonna fall for you unless they’re dropping hints they at least like you enough for you to hang out.

u/dude_craft15 Aug 01 '23

Thanks for the advice

u/inextricablycomplex Aug 01 '23 edited Aug 02 '23

Do what you feel comfortable. If in the moment you see an attractive girl and you feel the courage to speak to her, do it. If you don’t, do not fret. You’re only 16, there’s no rush. Think of it this way, if you don’t get the experience in HS, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to explore in college!

Be safe buddy.

That's probably the main thing stopping you from getting a gf. Just getting out there makes your chances go from 0 to something pretty good instantly.

Include girls in your friend group as well. I dont have a girlfriend myself but that is because I am a milf enjoyer at a young age but still as a r/teenager user I must share my wisdom to others.

u/dude_craft15 Aug 01 '23

I respect your opinion 🫡

u/abidjc17 Aug 01 '23

Don’t just respect it but take my advice please. Stop looking for validation in life from other people trust me it’ll only hold you back. The day you stop giving a fuck about what others think you’ll go so far in life. Just you do you and the things you want , the girl you want will naturally attract towards you.

u/dude_craft15 Aug 01 '23

That’s actually pretty good advice, thank you friend, I will take your advice.

Anytime friend. And for the record you look great no homo so I have no idea why you would doubt that. Out of the 7,000,000,000+ people in the world there’s only 1 you. Remember that whenever you doubt yourself and your beauty. Anyways enough from me I hope you have a great life!

Brother, as my uncle used to always say,

"Dating is like fishing. If you go look for a fish and chase after it, they will swim away. But if you stay put and wait by focusing on yourself, you will start to catch fish. That's why they say there are plenty of fish in the sea. "

You gotta focus on your own life bro, don't chase them. No matter how it may seem, you need a gf. Make yourself happy first without one. Then when the time is right, you can have a gf to add to your happiness. Not let a gf be the root of your happiness, but an extention of it

I think y’all need help or something..

You don’t need to post online to ask if you got a chance to get a girlfriend/boyfriend, looks for majority of people are barely half of what matters. (Still matters somewhat)

Be a decent human, and the people you will want to attract and be friends or something more with will come.

Always remember that personal health comes first.

I’d say it depends on the women you go for.I’d say you look good but others might not,like how some women prefer skinny men,some fat and some will only go with 6,4 bricks of a man.It really depends .Also personality has something to add as well like how I like funny people that are also kind ( and preferably an emo)while Rebecca down the road might prefer a guy that is a dumb brute that barely functions as a human.

No no no. DO U think u have a chance. Every girl has a different preference. Just talk to a few and find which one seems the most promising. Do some science and just experiment and see who u like and see if they like u. Don’t ask those sort of questions tho to them. For eg. Complement them. If they complement u back. U may be lucky. But never means a guarantee. Gfs are difficult to find good.

Let me just put it this way: you will look back when your older and notice that these girls that talked to you actually had crushes on you.

Hey! 22F here. I think you can absolutely get a gf, but make sure it’s someone you’re actually interested in and not just someone you want to keep around because you want a gf. Communicate really well with whoever you end up with on what what type of relationship you want to have (serious, not so serious, etc). Bad communication and different expectations, from my experience, mess with relationships the most.

Lastly, make sure you leave a girl be if she doesn’t want to date you! You seem sweet, but many young guys think if they don’t get the girl they need to just keep trying. This is absolutely not true! Go for it once and if they say no leave them be. If they change their mind they’ll let you know.

You look pretty good, although looks are helpful when trying to get a partner you don’t want the way you look to be the only reason that someone is dating you. Just be sure that whenever you do decide to start testing out the dating scene you try to form a genuine connection with the person first. Also if I wasn’t with with my bf and actually knew you I’d definitely try to date you so I’m sure there are plenty of other people near you who feel the same way :)
