I ask myself the same question. I fallen for more than 20 girls in my class during school and I could't do a single thing about it, just sit and watch them like they were in a movie and I was a spectator. Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

I do the exact same thing.

Every semester I have a crush on a few girls, but never do anything about it. I find it extremely difficult and akward to approach ladies, and it breaks my heart to have to see so many lovely ladies every semester knowing that none of them will ever go out with me.

Find their Myspace. Talk to them that way for a while until you get to know them well enough that you can start a conversation with them in person Wink

Well fellas, I'm a girl and I find myself with crushes on a few boys in some of my classes, and I do the same thing... just stare at them and never really say anything.

Maybe we go to the same college and have crushes on each other and if only one of us spoke out we would find that we are perfect for each other! What a depressing thought that we may let opportunities like that slip by...

Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Yes, that is a depressing thought because I find shy girls extremely attractive; but I won't approach a shy girl because I'm shy, and a shy girl won't approach me because she's shy. Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

Hey, watch out, for this I only need just one "perfect" girl line of thinking. I have never had a girlfriend in my life b/c of undiagnosed/untreated Social Anxiety Disorder. I fell head over heels with a new friend of mine when she sat in my lap during a party. I wasnt to anxious around her because I considered her a friend and she had a boyfriend. But then she started to hit on me and saying that her BF was "more like a big brother", I managed to build up the courage (it took alot too) to ask her out, she stood me up but later acted like she didnt know. I fell for it, chatted with her online, helped her out, and even eventually took her out on a date. I look back now, and realize how much she abused my friendship and how ignorant I was of it b/c I thought she was "perfect" and the one I would marry. Turns out that she was alot, I say again ALOT more involved w/ her BF than she had stated. I was heart broken and became depressed. I eventually started to think that I would never be in love and became an alcoholic w/ suicidal thoughts. I didnt know what was wrong with me and thought I was the only one w/ my symptoms. But I found a test online, and discovered I had SAD and it opened my eyes. I could relate to most of the symptoms (aside from not being able to use public urinals) and have sought treatment.
I started taking Zoloft for depression but noticed I was far more talkative and less anxious. I am now talking to girls w/ little anxiety, and they talk and smile back. Its the first time in my life that I feel positive after talking to a female. Its only a matter of time before I start dating and get into relationship(s)- its pleural for a reason. Keep in mind that the odds of the "right" one will just fall in your lap is slim to none. Get treatment, sign up w/ personals, get involved in Coed clubs (especially Good Samaratan type clubs which has alot of HQ girls/guys ratio)
