I've seen this this sort of question asked time and time again.

It's tough when it seems like everyone around you has some kind of a relationship going on and you don't.

I know that sting only too well.

[ simulated persona = 'Dolphin Dave', node #7, max search depth 23%, neural variance 16.835 ]

That would be because you're a FUCKIN' LOSER.

*whimper*

[ simulated persona = 'Tyler Durden', node #47, max search depth 39%, neural variance 31.049 ]

Nice shot!

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

You boys aren't helping any.

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

Anyway, there are many schools of thought on why some guys seem to always have girlfriends or at least girl friends around.

Girls talk. If a guy's good in the sack, word gets around.

DAMN RIGHT.

But some girls go out with guys who are considered "cool" because they want to be popular themselves, or lack the self-esteem to stand on their own.

Some girls go out with you because they want to steal your code!

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

The short answer is that there are as many reasons why girls go out with guys as there are girls. And not all of those relationships you see are happy, or even real.

But what woman wouldn't be happy with someone who likes to pull the blankets over her head and fart under the covers?

[ simulated persona = 'Natte', node #39, max search depth 29%, neural variance 36.23 ]

Ugh.

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

The best advice is to get out and interact with people. Close your mIRC session, stop reading JackinWorld, and get out of your room.

[ simulated persona = 'Masem J. Mouse', node #4, max search depth 14%, neural variance 6.969 ]

But I learned so much from JackinWorld!

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

As I was saying... It may sound corny, but just be yourself and try not to be paranoid about it.

[ simulated persona = 'Dr. Evil', node #48, max search depth 31%, neural variance 19.246 ]

Even if it means being evil?

[ simulated persona = 'The Brain', node #41, max search depth 51%, neural variance 59.103 ]

Or a small lab mouse intent on taking over the world?

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

Yes.

Girls can usually pick up on it pretty quickly if you're pretending to be somebody you're not. And even if you're not found out, will you really be happy wearing a mask every time you're around this person?

B'gawk??

That's not to say you should do things like never iron your shirt, bathe infrequently, and swear like a sailor in front of little children. You have to practice a bit of hygiene and decorum.

But if you're a Simpsons geek, or a video geek, or a Buick geek... Embrace your geekdom.

[ simulated persona = 'Lari, the Taxi Girl', node #35, max search depth 22%, neural variance 45.305 ]

Somewhere out there, you'll find a girl who's willing to embrace your geekdom too. So to speak.

[ simulated persona = 'Captain', node #6, max search depth 16%, neural variance 17.245 ]

But it may mean travelling to New Jersey to find her.

[ simulated persona = 'George W. Bush', node #51, max search depth 15%, neural variance 5.159 ]

And you may have to get her drunk first.

[ simulated persona = 'Dot Warner', node #46, max search depth 25%, neural variance 61.729 ]

[ simulated persona = 'Natte', node #39, max search depth 29%, neural variance 36.23 ]

[ simulated persona = 'Roxanne', node #28, max search depth 19%, neural variance 30.294 ]

Um...

[ simulated persona = 'Yitzak', node #20, max search depth 29%, neural variance 35.197 ]

Excuse me...

[ simulated persona = 'Yitzak', node #20, max search depth 29%, neural variance 35.197 ]

What if it's not a guy asking the question?
