So many HB's in college, still none my age!

[skinnydart]

I’m 17, junior in college, and having some troubles getting a girl:

Part of the prob may be that even the freshmen are older than me, making me a bit hesitant to ask someone 1 – 2 years older than me out. Is this a no-no/something that most girls aren’t going to like or should I even care about the age difference?

I’m not that great looking either, tall and skinny, maybe a hint on the “nerdy” side. Here is a pic of me, (http://www.newbeginning.biz/skinnydart.jpg).
Please give me your hints on how to approve/how worried I should be.
NOTE: no, that hb with the celery is not mine

I’m not a jerk, more of a nice-guy, the only response I’ve really gotten from the girls is once I heard them say “he’s sweet”, stuff like that. The only people who have showed really any interest in me are the 4-5’s, none of which I liked.

I’m not very outgoing socially, have never asked anyone out in my life, but try to keep my shoulder back and my head up when I walk.

I work for the school’s IS department, so I deal with the students on a professional level all day, and am very good at it, but I’m thinking this is only adding to my “computer nerd” image rather than a potential bf. Sometimes I help up to 10-20 hb's a day, and most are really grateful for the help, but I don't want to take advantage of that too much (or lose my job). I mean I would feel weird...

HB: O it's working?! Thanks so much, I've been without my computer for 2 weeks. You're awesome! You should definantly get a raise. (that's atually word-for-word)
ME: Hey, no problem, so do you want to get together sometime?

I think most are just grateful for what i've done, but will forget me the next day.

One girl that I met, (and like) age 18 or 19, made small talk with, etc, will volunteer a ‘hi’ to me in the hall, and politely answer my questions (with eye contact) and usually return them when I ask her about herself, but gives no other signs of attraction/flirting. Is this enough to ask her out?

I really appreciate anyone’s help…

What do you want us too say?

If you say "Ooo baby i want to insert my male card into your female slot all night" That she'll be all over you . Or what?

Do you want us to help you get chicks at work? cause thats not gonna happen...

Have you read the bible? Have you done a bootcamp? If you said yes to one of these questions then we can talk. If both are no's then do them, see how things change.

We're here to teach you how to fish, you got to find the fish and catch them.

 

[skinnydart]

Yes, I have read them.

I'm just mainly concered about the age, and whether I should worry about it.

 

[oakraiderz2]

You look TERRIFIED in that pic....thats all ima gonna say cause im feeling negativee about that right now!

 

[thebsharp]

you gonna have to do something about your hair cause you look really nerdy with that hair. You wanna look cool, try some messy spike. Also you dont have to tell girls your real age, girls lie about them so why cant you?

 

[JSH]

Look as has been said in that pic u look terrified, jsut smile all day long and do random crazy things.

 

[Microphone Fiend]

Alright, don't smile 24/7 because you are gonna come off creepy. I think you should focus on your attitude moreso than your image for now. Look at bodylaunguage tips and stuff similar. Read Weapons of Mass Seduction, cuz that is great on the entirety of the game.

As for the whole picking up gurls on your job, I say scratch that. It sounds too much like that desperate worker who hits on anything who comes around, and it sounds stupid... but it seems almost supplicative, you did something for them and expect something in return.

Going to a trendy clothing store and asking the best dressed (sales)person to help you change your new attire will be a good thing to try, it builds your confidence and gurls like doing this stuff. She'll be like "OMG... makeover, totally!" (Trust me I saw it on Clueless, so it has to be true) lol

 

[skinnydart]

Thanks so much for your help!

Another thing can't drive either (at least not legally, still working on that), making it hard to take anybody anywhere.

I'll definantly by some cooler clothes.
I have a pair of classes that I never wear, I'm assuming that would do the opposite of help anything though.

So should I even worry about the age?

 

[Microphone Fiend]

If you don't worry about your age, it shoudlnt come up. Well it will come up in terms of people trying to manipulate you, or thinking you aren't mature enuff. But if you think you can't pickup gurls cuz you are younger, that is jsut a self limiting belief that will be fufilled. In life, age is an issue that becomes more trivial as we grow, and in places like college where people are becoming enlightneed, you need not worry. Sure you will come across people who are narrow-minded but just keep on going. You are 17 in 2nd year, you have already crushed people's beliefs on what is expected of you, keep it going!

Ahhhh

Ok, so what kind of hair style would look good, should I just cut most of it off and then go with the pasted, messed up/just-got-out-of-bed style?

Actually that picture is 5 months old, I ditched the part, everything is kinda pushed forward but it still doesn't look that much different. Looks like this http://www.cuthut.co.uk/pics/men4a.jpg

Grow it out a little then go to a stylist and see what they have to offer.

 

[oakraiderz2]

sounds pointless to me. Why not go at the same pace as everyone else and then you won't have to worry about age. I mean you get out of college earlier then everyone else but then you just have to start working and paying back college loans.

 

[skinnydart]

I don't have $1 to pay back (grants, scholarships, etc). I am going the same pace as everyone else, but because I started earlier that most, I will graduate early.
