How to give up on girls?

Question

I've basically given up on getting a girlfriend, hell, I've given up on feeling anything at all. I'm 17, never had a girlfriend, always got rejected, now I don't even bother trying (just as well because they always like another guy). I've already given up on meeting a girl that will ever reciprocate my feelings, given up on love, now all I have is pain and unbearable hatred. All I want to know is, how do I stop caring completely, hell, I want to know how to delete my emotions completely, if possible. Seem I was trying to date some girl (just to get over the girl I actually did love, that rejected me) and she hooked up with another guy, so that's out the window, but hey, what did I expect. Now I basically have no other options, nothing and nobody, completely alone (story of my life), honestly, I wish everyone could suffer with me. Don't tell me I'm young, because I don't care, don't tell me about your magical "true love" stories because hat doesn't happen, not for me. Don't bother saying how "rejection is great, one closer to the right girl" because, either A. I won't find this magic (nonexistent) person, or B. I won't even like this person, more like settling, not to mention, I only wan to be with one girl. No, there isn't a lot of time for me, no I don't believe there's any right girl, and I don't know how I'll magically find somebody. So yeah, I've given up on love, attachments, bonds, I will never make myself weak to anyone ever again. So, how do I stop liking girls?

I'm 22 and only just recently dated this guy who is now MY FIRST BOYFRIEND. Reason being is that I have been really picky and I don't want to commit to a relationship as I had many suitors all my life and also that I have very strict conservative parents. I don't go out of my way to flirt people, I am just myself when I am the opposite sex and show genuine interest in them and their life. If you are trying real hard to pursue a girl it doesn't work and comes off desperate and a girl can sniff it a mile away. Just be yourself, after all a girl will like you for you.
I've had guys coming to me telling me that they really like me but I feel that it was just physical attraction. The reason why I chose to settle down was that this guy was purely genuine and go out of his own way to show me that he cares for me. However I was on the verge of hooking up with another guy as he was quite boring at the time and I had a more stimulating communication flow with that other guy. I decided to give him a chance however because he was just so sweet and as I got to know him abit more, he opened up to me and we have electrifying chemistry.
Just know that true love is not some girl you find attractive and you guys fall in love. It is about a physical and mental connection you feel mutually for each other. If a girl can't appreciate you for you then it is just not meant to be. The right one will come along eventually.

Alright, I'm going to be really cliche. You're only seventeen. I'm sure you've heard this before, but you should really listen to it. You know how you'll see kids at the mall who look about twelve, and they're walking around, holding hands with their boyfriend who they "totally love, mom!"? Yeah, well you'll probably look at 17 year olds like that when you're in your twenties. Teenagers don't really have a full understanding of relationships. When you're a teenager, everything seems like a really big deal because you've only dated one girl, and there's this stupid idea that teenagers have where as soon as you're in a relationship, it means you're boyfriend and girlfriend. Dating does not exist. When you're in your twenties, you can go on a date with some chick, then not call her because the way that she laughed was really annoying, and she chewed her food too loudly. Also, that dream girl? In reality, it's the girl who annoys you the least, and who's going to be bearable long term.
Also, if you don't want to try to get a girl anymore? That's fine. You don't have to. Forever's not for everyone, and romance and love is actually quite a recent concept, when it comes to marriage. You're allowed to be a bachelor if you want. Don't buy into society's bullshit, man.

You say that than sooner or later a girl will come alone and change that. Because both me and my friend gave up I was done with guy for like 6 months and he gave up on girls a year before I even decided that... and ya now we are dating and I couldn't be happier :3

I've tried so many times to give up on girls and for longest time ever I found myself uninterested in anyone and then from out of nowhere I saw her, wanted her and fell back into line.

You can try and stop liking girls, but it's futile because sooner or later there's going to be a girl somewhere that attracts your attention and your interest.

Also I've been a failure like you in the dating game and I have no right to tell you how to feel. I've been on the receiving end of rejection and it never gets easier to deal with, it still hurts, it still knocks the wind out of my sails, but what hurts even more is becoming bitter, frustrated and resentful because these horrible emotions pour out in your body language and you end up locked in a cycle where by you become your own worst enemy. I should know I used to be such a person.

I can't sit here and promise you that you'll find someone because I do believe there are those of us in this life who aren't meant to find anybody, who aren't meant to fall in love, to experience love, to marry and to reproduce. Now whether or not you are one of these people remains to be seen, but the worst thing you can do is abandon all hope.

I kinda know how you feel.

Just don't 'TRY' to not invest too much energy in a single girl and 'flirt' with multiple girls. Even when you're in a relationship stuff can/will go sour. So even then you should be aware of that. Become good in flirting and not investing too much emotion.

Go out (with friends) a lot, don't necessarily drink, but talk to girls you don't know a bit. Do it often and you will get at least a kiss ! :)

Your very being would not allow it. Your going feel it, trust me. Your going be sexually frustrated, wake with a boner, desire lust just by eyeballing a girl, sex fantasies will swim in your head every no and again and on top of that you will constantly desire the will to want more. Now i wouldn't give up as prostitution and being a  p*rnstar  are future options. Or make a shitty movie with sex dcenes and your thr guy getting all the woman. Try reaching your goals instead of woman.

Stop focusing on finding a relationship, one will eventually fall into your lap. You're barely old enough to date.

Ps, you can't get butthurt that a girl you were trying to use hooked up with another guy.

Here's what I did, seems to be working so far:
1. Lower your self esteem (in that area). Tell yourself you're not deserving of a girlfriend.
2. Cut communication with them.
3. Become an MRA. (I haven't done this).

I've done the first two on this list and it seems to be working.
