windows Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 I know I'm only 18 and quite young but I'm looking for a girlfriend. I've just finished High School and heading off to University next year and I'm thinking of finding someone but I'm not sure where to begin. The only essential criteria I'm looking for has been cut down to having someone of he same religion (that is Christian) and mutual attraction. (and I only hope that this criteria is low enough) I wish I could say there was someone at my Church I had an interest in but unfortunately the only girl who I had any interest in rejected me a few days ago. I'm not going to be a clingy sort so I'm moving on but now I just don't know anyone who I am remotely attracted to. Can anyone help me and my problematic selectiveness?
shayan Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 windows congratz you didn't go clingy on the other girl Best advice be open and look for someone who you feel attracted to that's it. Don't look too hard either just be open and accepting and talk to the ones who tickly your fancy. That's what I do.
JungleLover Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 There is a lot of poon tang to be had in college. If you are going to a fairly large university, you shouldn't have much trouble finding somewhere there. Lots of groups you could join.
sanskrit Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 At 18, please consider worrying less about finding a GF and focus more on creating a foundation for accomplishment in your life by doing your best in school, avoiding bad habits and influences, and working on developing your social skills generally and making lots of friends. I spent the first six months of college hooked up with a GF, and if I had anything about that time to do over, would do that differently. Starting college is not the time to get serious with a girl, but to expand yourself.
Author windows Posted November 17, 2010 Author Posted November 17, 2010 Hmm, thank you all. I guess building up foundations is important (not just for getting a girl either). I've avoided all bad habits (that I can think of) so far but thanks for the advice. When I head off to uni I'll get involved in the groups there and work on my uni friendships. I'm sure most of you agree there are very few high school friendships we take into uni.

I'm sure most of you agree there are very few high school friendships we take into uni. I've known all my best friends since Junior High... I value my friendships more than relationships to be honest. Relationships tend to crash and burn faster.
Author windows Posted November 17, 2010 Author Posted November 17, 2010 True true, (not that I know personally but I've seen it happen). You guys are right. If I meet a girl, I'll meet a girl. I'll just focus on finding my feet with this newfound freedom of post-high school with my best high school friends.
