In a nutshell... that's seems to be the problem every time. The trend I always notice is people putting too much focus on dating or getting a girlfriend when they should be expanding their social life.

It's like wanting money but not wanting to work a full time job.

Lol.. You should read the entire thread.. We aren't even at the dating point.. Heck man.. We have trouble getting Mr Kahn having a coffee (or waffles) with a girl..  He tries.. We push him to try.. He doesn't always listens to us but thats ok.. At this point every experience in this dance called love is good for him..

Actually did get a response from that other girl, btw.

And my social life has improved vastly since i got away from the gas station job (GetGo, hatmoza would remember who they are). It's mostly school social functions, but it gets me out at least once every other week, which is quite superior to any other time in my life thus far. Last weekend i went to a chinese hotpot restaurant and sat next to a hot Thai girl, and then the next day went to a bar trivia fundraiser.

The issue is connecting one to the other. The people i hang with generally are great people, but don't share a lot of my hobbies and whatnot. Thus it's harder to make a deep connection with them, which includes the many lovely (both in looks and personality) ladies who are part of my social sphere. To put it bluntly, i need to meet girls who are, if not actual nerds, then at least knowledgeable enough about video games and animation and such that we could talk about it once in a while. I'm far from a one-note guy in terms of being able to carry on a conversation, but i shouldn't have to bury my inner nerd forever, right?

With this new girl, even if she's not interested in me, it's still worth pursuing because she could possibly connect me to her social circle, who *would* share a lot of my interests.
