If you're actually a woman I have a question for you. I am always told that women are attracted to intelligence and ambitious men but why is it so difficult for guys like me to find a date? You would expect an avid comic book reader to be fat but I'm not, and I'm also not an idiot. I am physically fit and I don't dress like your typically nerd. Could you please explain to me what is it about me that would cause women to not pick me? I'm not ugly and I'm not too socially awkward. Why do women seem to be attracted to idiots?(and they aren't even good looking)

You're not obnoxious or elitist about your knowledge, are you? Parading it around is very annoying. It's appropriate when you're taking a girl for a stroll at night and you start talking about the stars. It's not appropriate when your date gets back from the washroom and you start talking about how she should have timed her excretory system so that the time during the date could have been used in a more efficient way.

That being said, try going for girls who are smart and will appreciate you. I certainly would

Protip: Acting
Seriously, its piss easy to do, and helps with socialising boundless amounts.

It's hard at first; you feel judged and scrutinised by people around you. However, the moment you realise it isn't 'you' they are scrutinising, but the character you are portraying, it opens up a whole new realm of confidence.

In the words of shakespeare:

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:"

Social situations are just another form of performance, and you can either watch that shit passively, act out what you want to be or direct it the way you wish it to go. (Speaking figuratively, of course, direction requires subtlety..)

Oh, not to mention that the ratio of guys to girls is incredibly favourable.

get your /fit/ angst out of here. we get it. you're uncomfortable with yourselves both physically and mentally and try to over compensate. in many cases the repressed homosexuality is so intense that you can tell just from a person's forum posts that they are a twisted conflicted individual.

get out there and suck some cocks! you'll feel better about yourself and perhaps stop being so neurotic about your physical appearance.

I kinda know the feel.
I found it was literally a case of confronting and analysing the fear itself. Philosophy is brilliant for developing this mode of thought- but that's a different conversation. Point is, I found the fear stemmed from the undesirable position of social exclusion due to negative judgement from peers or simply people around you.

However, when on stage- you are not you. Just like in a game, when lost in a book or simply fantasizing about something; you begin to realise that your actions aren't necessarily representative of "you" the person. It's called the fourth wall and it means you can act like a complete lunatic whilst maintaining dignity.

Also, the thing to remember is that everyone else is approaching/ has approached acting from a similar angle. Most people you deal with are incredibly supportive and friendly, if not just as nervous as you are. The people that aren't like this aren't really worth talking to. Plus, you have a major bonus on your side- intellect. No offence to drama/arts students, there are some damn intelligent people there. But from my experience, generally those interested in acting tend to prefer "arts" to "sciences". As long as you don't brag about it, you'll likely be revered as the smart guy of the bunch- even a person of authority in particular discussions.

Based on your own insecurities, you have obviously already figured out that while there may be a high correlation between autistic behaviour and high levels of intelligence, there are clearly some of us who have supreme social skills AND can do better than your exgf on math tests.

Usually, i start with making friends with people just as awkward as me
Alpha them
Then move onto more

Go to places where everyone is just as awkward as you, usually events where nobody knows each other
and go make conversation

easy. believe me, it is so easy

you basically say

"Hi, Im just introducing myself around. My name's SadFrog."
"Oh, hey my name is <insert bitch here>"
"Hey <insert name>, are you studying such and such?
Yes or no, blah blah
Oh really, that sounds great. What does it involve?
It involves this, that and the other. How about you?
I do this, that and blah. I was thinking of doing such and such or signing up for this particular thing, are you considering it?
Yeah, well etc etc etc

That may sound really lame and hard to follow. But Im going off the context I had in an event just recently where all undergrads were meeting each other for the first time

consider the context, that's an important point, and make small talk about it
it usually leads up to something

alright, i feel bad about posting this. it is true though lol. i forgot to include that i used to be really awkward too but got over it. i think most of your problems come from trying to force conversations and friendships in places where its not normal to. its possible to roll into your first day of class and shoot the shit with all the bros and ladies but it isn't normal.

instead of trying to like train to be like sociable cool guy in class you should just get jobs with people your age or anything to force social interaction. when you have to work with people and talk to them about work, the small talk follows naturally and then the friendship. most kids learn this shit in little league, church, neighborhood playgrounds... my guess is most of you have shitty parents that fucked up your social development, i know i did.
