OK, here we go...

Right. I understand this is a gaming forum, and not a place to randomly vent crap that I won't talk about elsewhere. I'm going to vent crap anyways.

I just don't fucking get the why I can't find a girl that is even close to what I want that is within my grasp. I've met 4 or 5 that are just a girl I would happily settle down with and start a frickin' family with even though I'm not out of highschool. But... 2 were too old for me, one liked douches, and one moved. I like girls who aren't necesarrily nerdy, but understand my nerdiness, and are willing to try nerdy stuff. (Comics, games, 9GAG) These girls could do that, and one was actually into it. Of course, my friends accuse me of trying to get a girl that's to far out of my range. I remind them that you have to shoot high for a far shot, and that's what I'm doing. Sadly, that doesn't work in practice. I guess they're right. I have higher standards than I should for looks. I know I have a thing for girls with dark hair and light eyes. Something about that contrast is so appealing to me, with my red hair and brown eyes. Body shape? I don't really know how to describe it. I like thinner girls, but deffinetly not skinny ones. I also don't mind a little bit 'thicker' girl either. I try not to focus to much on the body, so lets go to the personality. Like I said, needs to understand nerdiness. That alone is hard. I also kind of got screwed growing up in a country family that knows technology. So, my weekends are made up of playing Xbox and working cows. Uhh, that's getting more common, but still. I'm also awkward around those I'm attracted to. Yeah, common. So, I think, meet them with some mutual friends around. Wait, we don't have mutual friends. I'm no fan of strangers, and I hate large crowds. (Thanks to being raised in the country...)

I might write more later, that's just what I thought of now.

I think you should stop worrying about women so much. It's highschool, and just because all your friends are dating or some bullshit doesn't mean you need too. I've had one girlfriend in the course of highschool, and that was more than enough. I really don't understand the point in dating in highschool. There's plenty of time left in your life to date.

Fact is, most teenagers don't have any real personality yet, they're just trying to find where they fit in the world.

Wait till college.

Keep spending time giving a damn what women think and moping over your feelings, any eligible females will be repelled by your self pity, giving us less competition in obtaining the ever elusive piece of ass. Thanks chump.
Signed- every other guy your age in your community.

relax. i didn't go on a date until i was 18. lol. >.> if they want to be with you they will, if they don't, don't get bent out of shape.

Aren't there like, hundreds of movies (particularlys 80s and 90s ones) dealing with the same thing? Should be a good place to look for lessons (or at least a way to see just how unappealing self pity is). Nothing straightens your perspective like seeing Corey Haim in your shoes.

Chill out and don't "start a frickin' family" with the first girl who looks at you twice. That's a good way to turn a few bad high school years into a couple miserable decades.

Stop obsessing about girls who aren't interested in you. They're probably not that great anyway. Don't waste any time and energy resenting them. They're not obligated to like you.

Focus on improving yourself and making a good life for yourself after high school. If a nice girl comes along during this time, that's great; if not, you'll be better prepared for life and relationships after high school. In the meantime, don't participate in "Don't Fap December".

Wow. Lotsa replies.

I didn't really want to mention it, but this is something my school counselor told me to do. She said she had seen my case only a couple of times, and I just needed to vent. She said to start with relationships, and go on from there.

I asked her what she thought was wrong, and she just shrugged. She says its hard to explain, and I didn't really understand what she told me. I don't get psycology stuff. It sounded like something about not spending enough time with friends outside of school, and lack of interaction with girls. She said I need to spend more time yada yada yada. I then asked how venting would help, and she just said "You'll see". So, I just want you to know this isn't completely a cry for help or anything, I'm just doing what the counselor said.

Ahh...teenage angst. What a bitch it can be...

Don't worry about the future so much man. Just know that what you're feeling now is completely normal and it's just part of growing up and finding out who you're going to be.

My advice: find a hobby (outside of games) and put your time and effort into that. Doing something you love makes you happy and confident. Girls and everything else will follow.

The right girl will find you and love you just the way you are my guy was the same as you except a city boy i swept him off his feet 5 yrs ago with my country girl charm
