    The lad I work with (27) plays online games continually after work. Doesn't socialize. The only females he s...s are prostitutes. They are only interested because they are getting paid. Instead of coming on here why don't you get out and about?

    Next time I am in your Asda at Monks Cross in York I think I will hunt you out to see if you look like the idiot that you appear to be on these threads.....no doubt you will have a lapel badge that says Robert........:)

    Your trying too hard. Women seem to pick up on that and it puts them off.

    Just get on with your life and love will find you. If you go looking for it, it will rarely work out.

    Valentines day is coming soon, its been nearly a year since my last relationship ended, my cousin is getting married in april, nobody i know at work is single everybody has someone but me.

    What's your cousin got to do with anything??
    If you want a gf go out and get one. You have to meet people and get to know them. Going out and meeting new people will help improve your social skills too and will stop you seeing every woman as a potential girlfriend.

    Ever tried World of Warcraft? I hear just about everyone finds their soulmate there!

    Get yourself over to Thailand.

    I hear you can pick one up over there for a small fee.

    if you've tried socialising and dating sites and still no luck, for a whole year, quite possibly it's something to do with your personal approach, (not meaning anything bad about you), and it might help to try to shine the spotlight on yourself and have a think what it could be. And if you really can't think of anything, perhaps ask a close friend who's known you for some time, for their honest opinion.

    Some ideas;

    1) do you come across as needy to women who could do without someone who needs a lot of care and support?
    2) do you choose potential girlfriends to ask out, wisely - are you really choosing someone who would be likely to want to go out with you?
    3) you're sure your personal hygiene is up to scratch? (no offence)
    4) you're sure you come across as a pleasant person?

    etc

    ask a friend

    It could just be bad luck. You do have my sympathy.

    Literally everyone i know is in a relationship or married. Your looked on more favorably if your in a relationship too.

    No thats not true at all

    I was single for 6 years and yes had down days and and xmas, valentines and birthday were rubbish, but I made the most of what I had and enjoyed what I had. I made an effort to get out and about, got a dog to get out and meet people. I didnt think what I dont have but thought about what I do have

    I got online dating, met a few for coffee dates etc (which again got me out and met new people) and finally met a lovely guy and we have been together six months.

    If you convince yourself about being fed up, down or the world is against you, you wont get very far at all. Change your outlook, make plans and you maybe plesantly suprised :-)

    I try everything im on a dating web site i never get any good matches, i have tried hobbies etc to try and meet more girls but i never have success. Everyone else just seams to happen but not me.

    Get one of those smart price valentines cards from your work to woo someone with they're only 7p and with your employee discount you could get it even cheaper!

    Make the most out of being single. You can do whatever you want and not restricted to a relationship or worried about hurting the other ones feelings.

    There are always single people out there. Times have changed. People are more "fickle" now and relationships don't last.

    You might be able to get some sloppy seconds Rob! Ha.

    Well, I guess its time to nail the lid down Rob, you are officially undateable.

    Well since the last thread Rob and the countless threads of the same nature before that, I very much doubt you're going to pull your finger out and do anything about it.

    P.s Is your sis still on the market? ;)

    I presume that you did not take my advice from a previous thread on this subject and buy yourself an inflatable doll then?

    Another thread? Er, OK. Try not to use dating sites you come across as needy, perhaps meeting somebody socially would improve your chances.

    I`m back been busy.
    Seriously dude, you're not gonna find your dreamgirl playing online nerdy games, real life isn't like The Big Bang Theory, where a lovely Penny character moves to the flat across the landing.

    [ if only ]

    well yes tv isnt real.

    You put to much pressure and emphasis on finding someone. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride (if you find someone to ride :D)
