I am 24 and still a virgin, haven't had a relationship in my life, my problem is opening up, walking up to women and asking them, I have a slight problem with the communication problems. Now this only is for the first few minutes of talking, after that I am comfortable. What is the best way to open up, which is not the only problem. I also can't walk up to a woman I like with out fear that I would be laughed at. Any advice

Make it a goal...to get laughed at.


Approach as many women as possible(nicely please)...


Rejection is not terminal...

fear of it is much worse.

Like the song says...walk like a man, talk like a man...confidence is SOOOO attractive. Not stuck on yourself a**hole stuff...but real confidence in who you are. You know your good qualities, you say so yourself you are a nice,decent man. USE THAT!! Use that to build yourself up Dave! If a woman rejects you? SO what. We all have our different likes and dislikes and when you bump into one that likes you back...YAY...until then don't get down. Chin UP and go for it!

davey boy....are you sure youre 24?????....this is what you just said....I also can't walk up to a woman I like with out fear that I would be laughed at. Any advice...

ok you want advice....well todays your lucky day....

so you think women laugh at you.....why?????....

if you really think that....then do something about it....

improve yourself....change evolve into the kind of guy....that women love...

what ever you do....DO NOT LISTEN to all the people that say.....just dont ever change....its their loss if they laugh at you...it will be your loss....having no woman...

if you evolve....change...improve....you WILL aproach any female....without any problems....

no need to thank me.....its my pleasure

laughter can break down any communication barrier.

24 and still a virgin, that information alone should get some women drooling... Which could explain some things

Like and attracted to, is 2 different horses all together.

GOOD STAY A VIRGIN. Take your time and find a women that you connect with and want to have a longterm committment. HOPPING INTO THE SACK WITH EVERY JANE,DIANE and KATHY isn't all it's cracked up to be. Don't let what's on TV be your guideline...Good luck in your search to find that certain someone that would want to build a meaning relationship.

excellent point.........do what ever you do to for selfish reasons only. ..this just did not sound right....LOL

improving yourself for health reasons is always the right choice.
As for pleasing a potential mate....
we all have lines we won't cross.



that first line sounds wrong, but damn,..so right LMAO

Exactly, Well said Cutie!

And besides, Davey here knows his good qualities, he did not come here saying omg I am a nothing nobody with nothing to offer anyone...

Also Dave IS an attractive man and if he stays REAL and not EVOLVE into some fake like a few others around here, he will eventually find his mate.

I would say that the answer is somewhere in the happy medium.You should never change who you are so drastically that you don't know yourself, but at the same time at I imagine that if you had your way you wouldn't still be a virgin at 24. That's judging from your post here, asking for help.
So, maybe there are things you can change that let you remain true to yourself. You've already received some sound advice, look at what you have to offer and build yourself up. Do not second guess yourself, ever. If you make a move and its unwanted than you've lost nothing. You've just saved yourself the time of pursuing someone that is not interested in you. Learn from the experience, and move on.
I don't think I'm to far out of line to say that your problem is one of fear. You have to confront it, or live under its sway. That is up to you alone. But I'll say, that the fear of something is almost always worse than the thing itself.
Good luck.

You have been given so much good advice in this thread, although Wave is a little off his surf board this morning.

Just always be polite, if you don't get the right response from a woman you've approched say 'have a good evening' and walk away with a smile and your head up.

If fact just trying smiling at a woman before you approach her, if she smiles back you should be half way there.
Accross a crowded room, it works!
