For some reason it seems like I am not able to find a girl to hang out or a anything anymore... Until I was 22 it was always very easy for me to get alone with girls, but now it seems for some reason I am kind of invisible or something. Almost four years of drought now, and not a single cloud on the sky yet...
Most of my friends are either married or too busy working that it feels like I have no old friends anymore, I am not thinking about getting married soon (no girl hence the problem) or getting another job (too lazy) and I dont feel like going out with 18-20 years old fellows nor 35+ fellows either... No friends to go out and no luck with girls... /emo

how old are you now?

Wow that is sad. You need to get some confidence man. It seems that alot of people/nerds on this site have low confidence in themselves and can't get women. Before you can be happy with someone else you need to look in the mirror and ne happy with yourself. 

  I know it is a matter of confidence. Somehow I lost confidence after I got rejected by the most amazing woman I have ever met. After that I felt very bad and I promised to stay away from any woman (Pathetic I know). It didnt take long before I tried again but I got rejected again, so I thought obviously I was doing something wrong. I dont have any real female friends (I know some women from work and stuff, but nothing close to a real friend) so I had no real clue on what  was I doing wrong to begin with. So after a few more tries (some were somehow successful some others though...) I realized it had to be me and so my confidence fell down big time. Little by little I feel like I am losing some social skills, for some reason I cannt even keep eye contact with anybody anymore, I feel nervous to talk to people (even when I talk to a bank teller or at the register)... I have a relatively nice job and my economic situation is fine so I guess I am doing some things right but socializing is becoming a major problem for me.
