I just want a girl to cuddle with me and if she were to read lit that would just be a bonus. I can imagine the scene now, us sitting together on the couch, her leaning against my shoulder, each of us with a book (I hold my book with one hand and play with her hair with the other; she has brown hair and blue eyes).

I am reading poetry, probably Wordsworth, Wallace Stevens, or Betjeman, and she is reading Hegel. She teases me a little for being more interested in poetry than philosophy and I tease her for not realizing that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in her philosophy, but it's all good-natured. After a while she curls up even closer and falls asleep. I finish one more poem and then set the book aside and shut my own eyes. We breathe together, in and out in harmony with one another and with the earth. It would be so lovely.

not who you responded to but I lead an exciting social life, got /fit/, got a good degree with a good job that pays me well, groom myself and dress well, and I'm a 24 yo virgin. I dont even know how to solve this problem. my day-to-day life at places like my job or gym is devoid of women, my friends are all single guys, apps are just fully of women who either dont respond or ghost

Meet a girl at the library, don't go in too intensely, just tell her you find her attractive and ask if she wouldn't mind getting to know each other. Don't overthink it, but don't be desperate, girls smell desperation, it's like a sixth sense.

If anyone is wondering what the Baked Alaska thing is about, he picked up a schizophrenic girl while at the store and helped her get her life together, and it became a meme:

Extremely sus and creepy. That's something you show, not tell. Just have a normal smalltalk convo and ask the girl out.

> 24 y/o virgin
How? I feel sorry for you bros not breeding at your prime age. Is it really that hard to get laid? I have friends that rely on tinder app for some pwn. Modern day eharmony. I'd be a fag tranny if i were single at that point. Seems much more exciting than being eternal emo about not having a GF. Reminds me of when i was 17 & was a hopeless romantic

T. 24 y/o with 3 kids & a 23 y/o GF.

There's something so precarious cute little things. When I see a cute woman, I sometimes imagine holding her little bunny head next to my chest to keep her warm. Other times I imagine wrapping my hands around her neck and slowly watching her life drain from her eyes.

Where tf did you take that from? The dude just said he wanted a girlfriend not that he doesn't want to work out or do anything to attract a woman. Fuck off faggot lmao, stop assuming everyone is a loser like you.
