hmm this is an interesting forum I've found. So here's my first post.
I have this weird thing that occurs when I talk to some girls especially when some I find one attractive. It's like I can't carry a conversation. I ask a question, and I get a simple return. There isn't a discussion; it's like a talking to a wall. Or they simple talk in a very quite voice. I ask how they are doing, and they respond "fine" or "good." And then there's a pause. I proceed to ask how class or how did you do on the test trying to get something going, and I pretty much the same answer. I mean what do I have to do to get some kind conversation?
I can talk to some girls just fine, but most of them are in a relationship, engaged, or married. I get really really confused. I liked this girls, b/c I can talk to her quite a bit, and we could carry a conversation, but when I asked to hang out or do something I find out she has a boyfriend which she didn't mention until the very end. Those who are engaged or married, I can carry a conversation.
But those who I know are single or guess are single, it's like they act weird around me, or is it just me? I refuse to believe, I can act that differently around girls around me.
I'm 23 and really haven't dated that much through college. I mean I "hang out" once or twice playing pool or grabbed a drink. My major was really demanding, and I didn't have any socializing. I graduated in Dec and settle in job about to hit grad and want to date a little, but it's driving me nuts.
I was electrical engineering major, and the place I work and the classes is like a monastery. I mean it's a sausage fest. If there is a girls, she probably looks a guy (I've seen girls with hairy legs in my class before). Therefore I don't get interaction with women, and I'm trying to change that. I don't care if I make a fool of myself with girls, but I don't get why I can't carry a conversation. What's going on?
