no i do not lol But you are not the first person to tell me something like that.  You think i just say these things online but Im pretty straight forward about these things in real life too.

By any chance are you a soap salesman. Am sure you'll get it

I make some in my basement every once in a while. Why? I'm not allowed to talk about it.

Good call my man! Nice to see a thread like this.

I used to be a bitch and never ask girls out or anything, but for around the last almost year or so I've been actively dating, asking girls out, etc. I've been friendzoned at least three times in that period and rejected a few times as well, and didn't have much success early on...but I stuck with it and as of about the past month or so it finally worked out and I think I have myself a keeper.

So definitely stick through it and don't be worried about rejection or the frienzone. It'll be worth it when you find a good one.

And also don't worry about possible awkwardness if you ask out someone you see a lot and they reject you. I asked a girl out in one of my classes that I see 3 times a week and she rejected me due to having a boyfriend already, and it doesn't matter, I just played it off and there's no awkwardness.

I'm not even remotely close to an expert in dating or whatever, but I can at least give people my advice/thoughts since I too was once too much of a pussy to ask girls out or anything.

 Exactly. We do not talk about...

True & I agree. But being British, the issue is finding someone worth anytime. Asking for someone that takes care of themselves physically, has confidence, ambition and hobbies I have found is akin to asking to touch the moon. 

Are you Northern or Southern? How are you finding the "female" situation in the UK?

Then dont be scared.  does it make you happy by hiding?  Yes it sucks getting rejected as we have all been there but why should that effect you?  It shouldn't effect you at all.  there is 6 billion people in this world  so if you think this Miss Right is the one and she rejects you well guess what.  6 billion other people to look through.  The truth is, people are not some beautiful unique snowflake no matter what we want to tell ourselves or believe.  We are all the same decaying organic matter. What Im trying to say is never put anybody on a pedastool because believe it or not, if she rejects you then somebody else will fill her gap and make you happy. 

I'm American and I live in a state that has low population with high obesity rates so i completely understand where you are coming from.  I have very high standards so living in a place like i live in can make it difficult at times, but it doesn't stop me either.

Earlier on I didn't ask girls out because I was hung up on this one girl who was a real fantastic friend. I did not want to ask her out because I did not want to loose that friendship. I always hoped she would see us more than friends but it never went there.

Later on she moved to another country so I started asking other women out and all is good now and been in a relationship for 6 years.

The logic here is true. If you're willing to abandon shame, then there's no real loss to trying the shotgun approach, unless you are so shameless that negative word of mouth spreads about you.
