I don't know why...But I have SO much trouble approching girls.

 

I really shouldn't have this problum. I'm a 24 year old male and I don't think that I am unattractive, I've been told I'm not bad to look at...I've got a full head of thick dark brown hair, I'm tall ''6,1'' I'm in decent shape and currently working towards becoming downright athletic in build. But despite all that I have going for me physically, I find myself shying away from talking to girls im intrested in because like most men, I do fear rejection, and I don't know how to make good conversation and build up to asking a girl on a date? But yet, I find that I struggle daily with these issues, and its been quite awhile since I've had a meaningful relationship or anykind.

 

The last time I've even had sex was on my 22nd birthday 2 years ago. Like all people I need physical contact with someone. I need to have sex, I feel starved of it...And I don't mean go out and have nasty slut sex with a 20$ hooker. I could have that any night if I really wanted it...But I'm talking about being close to someone threw the act of sex.

 

I am also tired of feeling like I'm living in my head...I want to be close with physically and emotionally with someone, but I don't know how to get there! I know this sounds stupid...But I REALLY REALLY feel like life is passing me by, I want to have someone I can share my youth with or at the very least just be out there and dating and gaining experience handling realtionships.

 

I just need some help guys...Anything anyone has to offer is appricated.

You're focusing on the physical - which is good, I'm fine with that - but what about the mental/intellectual?

 

What kind of reading do you do?

 

What other interests do you have that do not necessarily involve bench-presses?

 

How wide a social circle have you developed for yourself?

 

Do you mix with like-minded people, or do you stretch yourself to interact with people whose personal attitudes are on a different level to yours?

 

do you enter into discussions, debates and conversations that challenge your morals and beliefs?

 

how flexible and absorbent is your intellect?

 

It matters to many women.....

I consider myself fairly intellectual. I am working towards a Ph.D in science right now. But having book smarts is totally different from being socially excuse my phrasing, but socially retarded. Which I don't think I'm that bad off, however being social with people has never been my strong suite and it makes me very self concious. I often times fear making akward conversation to such a degree that I avoid talking to people all together. That's my main reason for writing this.

 

My social circle is pretty small at the moment...It started shrinking right out of highschool. I keep in touch with maybe 10 people right now on a fairly regular basis, and see 3 to 5 of them semi regularly. And its not because I limit myself to particular social circles, I'm willing to be friends with anyone as long as they aren't *******s and/or bitch's to myself or the people I care about.

 

And as for reading, I actually read quite a bit. I read everything from novel's of all kinds to science text books. I'm even in the process of learning to speak latin at the moment. So yes I'm an avid reader.
