I was thinking how bad my social skills were and in middle school in the cafeteria, I would sit alone while everyone else sat together. I don't know if it was a popularity thing or I just didn't want to be social. I do admit it'd my own fault for not socializing, some people probably thought I was socially awkward and felt nervous around me. Could my social skills be a reason why I can't hold a relationship.

Maybe. How old are you now? You're referencing middle school. If you are in high school now, that's valid. If you are beyond high school, it's time to take charge of your own life.

It's true that a lack of social skills doesn't help getting a girlfriend.

 

I also wonder your age now?

 

I was also socially awkward when I was younger and still am a bit. But that's something I worked on and made significant progress. I always had friends, but also enjoyed solitude.

 

I made the mistake to try getting into relationships with some very extroverted ladies in the past which ended up being a disaster. Can't force myself to be social when I am or was clearly not.

I read some of your other posts. I think you just need more practice being social with all sorts of people. Talk to your class mates. Join some on campus groups. As you get more comfortable in your own skin, the ability to have a relationship will flow more naturally.

I don't think so....

 

I think you just need to find the right person...

 

And Ill say this as well...

 

I think society sees women that aren't social as far more "odd" than they do guys...Plenty of guys are considered "lone wolves"...I am one, and its never been a problem really for me...If anything, I have had plenty of opportunities...but we aren't for everyone....no one is, really...

 

Just bear in mind that if you wind up with a "life of the party" type of woman, then she won't mesh well with your personality...

 

Be the best you can be and don't force yourself to be something you aren't comfortable with...If you are accomplished and have self confidence, many women won't care if your not the loud, back slapping type..

Yes, that's probably the main reason.

I'm going to tell you what I told my anti social brother.

 

Go buy some cigarettes n start smoking. Honestly. It's the best way to meet people. Only down side is ur health gets worse. But it makes you look less of a puss. N all the cool kids smoke
