Worry more about being a decent guy and a gentleman, rather than how much you can bench press. If you do this, you'll have no problems getting girls who don't care about physical size.
Your question works under the assumption that every single girl on the planet has the same taste in men. In reality, some of them will want guys with big arms they could hang off of, but some of them will be attracted to skinny guys like yourself. You obviously have a body type that isn't going to support large amounts of muscle mass. Focus on what you are, not what you aren't.
In this day and age, you aren't going to have to protect your girl from other men, no one is going to try and beat you up so they can carry her off to a cave. The only time this may come into play is if you get mugged, and in that situation, unless your professionally trained in some sort of martial skill, trying to fight back will only get you stabbed or shot. Muscles are no match for a weapon.

How many calories are you eating in a day? I'm a skinny guy by nature, but if I eat between 3k-4k calories and workout, I do put on weight. And yes, it is embarrassing sometimes to be lifting such light weights in the gym at first, but we all have to start somewhere. I'm glad I did. When I first started, all the other guys in the gym were lifting more than I was. That being said, there are some girls who are into skinny guys. I recommend the gym, but also don't forget to work on your sense of humor or anything else that will give you confidence with women.
There will most definitely be a girl to be your girlfriend, not all girls are into buff, meat head guys. There are girls out there who actually want to be able to put their arms around their boyfriend.
A girl won't fall in love with you because you can bench press 100 lbs, and if any girl is so worked up about how much a guy can bench press, she's obviously not worth it and pretty damn shallow. You will find a girlfriend, absolutely.
1) I actually like thin guys
2) You don't need to be strong to protect me guns, knives ect
If you are concerned about it thought then eat more high carb foods and when you are at home walk around on your toes if you want leg muscles lol
My boyfriend couldn't even carry his suitcase for a block :P I don't care, I think it's cute. I love him and I don't need him to "protect me" from other guys, so...

That's about my weight and situation as well. I can't bulk up much and while I can probably bench more than that, I don't really care or work at it. If a girl wants my protection, I can shoot a motherf***er. I also carry a knife at all times. If a girl wants protection, they should get turned on by police departments, since that's really the only thing doing it in this society. If we have some big collapse of the system, it won't matter how much a guy can bench press as far as survival. The neanderthals were 10 times stronger than humans, and humans evicted them from existence.
I've got a friend who's like that; he's practically a stick figure he's so skinny. He even has other health problems that affect his looks and his physical abilities. Yet he's about to get married real soon to a very beautiful girl. He makes up for this by having high self esteem and confidence. That's why I like hanging out with him and that's why he's getting girls.
Mmm, perfect body type. :)
Honestly, that's what I prefer. And I don't think I'm the only girl who feels that way.I DO NOT CARE HOW MUCH A GUY CAN BENCH PRESS.
and extremely muscular guys are a turn off imo.
as long as I won't crush him when were doing it and he can hold me up, I don't care how big a guy is how tall a guy is how muscular a guy it.If you really had an issue with this I would offer you help with working out (if you wanted to get stronger) If your heart is in the right place we are cool. Guys that are thinner don't bother me.
First off, I don't think women care how much you can or cannot bench press. You're more likely to impress guys with that kind of stuff.
However, I'd like to put this into perspective. I don't think most guys can bench 75% of their weight, including me.Just eat even more and lift hard and heavy with proper form man, your bench press will go up. Watch Frank Yang's 10,000+ calorie bulk video on YouTube if you need any motivation to cram food down your throat :P
Well the majority of women weight more then 90lbs so just hope she doesn't want you to pick her up. If your worried about not gaining muscle get a summer job that requires physical labor so you can gain muscle mass.
Ya most toned guys don't lift too much weight but that kind of sucks if I'm too heavy to lift
Maybe you have a fast metabolism plus some big girls love skinny guys
Ahh the true test of love...bench press capacity
it doesn't matter at all.
I could but he has to weigh more than me
