Sooo, I've never had a real date, but I find that I am uncomfortable around men, so I am unable to ask them out. This becomes a real problem because I am in a sorority and we have formals but I can never find anyone to go with so end up going alone. I think part of my problem may be my that my low self esteem causes me to feel unnattractive so I feel uncomfortable like guys would be embarrassed to go out with me. I also don't really have any guy friends, mostly just my sorority sisters.Do you all, guys and girls, have any advice on how I can get over my insecurities and ask people out?
This is a topic that is kind of hard to address. For me, I am a flirt, its just what I do. I have no problems asking girls out, or getting to know them. Many of my friends however, are in the same place you are, and I try to help them out.
Find where your insecurity is coming from. Your shyness? Your weight? Your intellect? Whatever it is, single it out.
If it is shyness, try going with a wingman like guys normally do to get girls. Whenever you are at an event where the possibility of making connections with the opposite sex is present, bring your wing girl. This shold eb a friend who you feel comfortable with, who won't try to steal the guy from you, and who can easily start conversations. Then atthe event, use her as a security blanket. It will help you feel more comfortable around the guy, she can fill in awkward gaps, and help to land you a guy.
Weight? Don't focus on it. Find a balance where you can feel attractive, nd still live the lifestyle you want to live. This will help you be happiest.
Intellect? Read up. Find a book you have some troubles with, and fight through it. Also, become an expert on a subject that you enjoy. Even if ou aren't a chemistry whiz, if you know everything about one thing, then you will always have something to contibute.
