What should I do in this situation?

Look for social opportunities on campus, like parties, volunteer events, clubs and special programs. The more you get involved in the things you’re naturally interested in, the more likely you’ll meet single women with similar interests. Having these mutual interests will make conversation — and dates — flow more easily. Obviously, coffee shops are great places to scope out and chat up women, but you can also try yoga classes and other exercise venues where women are more likely to be. If there’s a track and you’re a runner, you’re more likely to meet female runners who run alone — easier to talk to then when they’re in a group. Laundry facilities where women who live off campus are doing their laundry are great places to meet college coeds because they’re trapped for the entire rinse and dry cycle! 😆 And women are more likely to eat lunch alone, than dinner, so seek out lunch places on campus where salads are served — women usually look for healthier, more diet-like fare.

It means she’s open to talking to you — and maybe she already does like you. Either way, it’s an invitation — but not an insurance policy. 😉

There are lots of ways to ask a girl out on a date. You’ve referred to asking random girls out, and if you’re going to do that, all you do is ask them. There’s no magic. But my advice is to get to know them first. A smile, some small talk, a conversation or two — and then decide if this is someone you want to date.

I think you should read a book I wrote for men called Date Out of Your League. You can buy it here: [url]http://www.askapril.com/relationship-dating-advice/date-out-of-your-league.html[/url]. It’s got a LOT of information about dating in it — more than I can give you right here. Buy it and read it. 😀

[quote]are there girls that like quiet men?[/quote]

Yes! 🙂

[quote]I wouldn’t say I’m shy or have a lack of confidence but I’m quiet. I don’t know what to say or talk about. I was never any good at socializing. Will this hurt me when being in a relationship?[/quote]

Being quiet is different than not knowing what to say or being inept at socializing. The latter is something you can work on. There are many men who are quiet and are still socially graceful. 😉 Lacking social skills will definitely be a drawback in a relationship. My advice is that you work on gaining social skills.

[quote]Will I get better when I’m in a relationship? [/quote]

You won’t get better at social skills because you’re in a relationship — you’ll get better at your social skills because you’ll be more aware and work at getting better at them. 😉 There’s no magic wand — you have to do the work.

[quote]Are there girls that like quiet men or will I struggle to find a date?[/quote]

There are girls that like quiet men. I’m not sure what you consider a struggle — if you’re not going to work on your social skills, then, yes, you’ll probably have a harder time than if you do work on them. 😉
