Girls don't like nice guys?

I always seeing guys getting lucky with girls, and they are jerks. I am a really nice guy, people always say I need to make moves, but I fail to see the right times. I don't want to walk up to a girl and look like a fool asking for her number. I am 17, I need some tips.

    With some girls, there never is a right time, because they don't like you. If you're chatting with a girl who's interested in you, you'll know when that time is.

    That being said, just going up to girls and asking for their number is kind of foward. You at least have to make some conversation first, and most times you have to see her several times before she's ready to date you. Trust your feelings. If it seems amazingly awkward it's probably not a good idea to ask. If you're struggling for things to say it probably means she doesn't dig you or you're just not compatible. If the conversation's going well and you make a date, then ask her.

    Nice guys often think there's some kind of magic that those jerks have that makes women fall into their arms. I don't think it's magic. It's that they're really good looking or they were just more her type than you are. Nothing agaist you. Attraction is complicated. It's hard to say sometimes exactly why we're drawn to someone. We just are.

    You've answered your own question there. "people always say I need to make moves, but I fail to see the right times. I don't want to walk up to a girl and look like a fool asking for her number." You know why jerks get the girls? Because they are confident in approaching a girl. Because they don't worry about the right time, or looking like a fool. They don't care if they get rejected.

    Aside from the argument about confidence, if you don't walk up to a girl and ask for her number, you just can't complain about the jerks. I'm sorry, you just can't. If you're not putting yourself out there, you have no right to complain about the guys who are.

    You know, a lot of girls really do want nice guys. And the never get them. You know why? Because the nice guys never get out of their heads and go TALK TO THEM. So she winds up with a series of jerks, and before long hates all men, whining about the fact there are no nice guys, and you're sat there thinking 'what about me?'. But you never made the move to begin with, and until you do, I'm sorry but you just can't complain.

    Just be slow with your approach, don't ask for the number straight off, if thats what you were doing cause thats what you made it sound like. I personally like nice guys, and the jerks are a huge turn off. My boyfriend is a really nice guy, and if he were ever arrogant like most my guy friends, then it would not work. Don't worry about it, if you are a nice guy, the right girl is coming. Just wait, youll see :)

    The guys getting lucky are getting lucky with the wronggggg type of girls (im 17 so i know)

    i got asked for my number 4 times yesterday and turned em all down bc they were all so cocky about it and its just rly unattractive wen guys act like that.

    Be very friendly, be nice and humorous and compliment them on things like their hair or their smile or outfit. not boobs or body or something like that just to look cool thats just a turn off.

    dont be afraid to approach girls and start a light convo bc even tho ur nice it shows ur an assertive and outgoing person and the biggest problem with nice guys is they tend to lack being assertive at all (which girls dont like either)

    so plz dont turn into some cocky jerk we dont like that :(

    be yourself :)

    I totally agree with ASKER and Christie. I think you might be looking at the shallow-type kind of girls. I personally look at boys for how they treat other people, so you might want to find someone like that. If you're looking at the obviously beautiful girls, you might be a little shallow yourself. Try to think back to girls who were nice to you, who helped you out when you were stuck or needed help. Try to see the beauty in all people. Not just the popular cheerleaders or whatever. You might even remember a girl who was ESPECIALLY kind to you and you didn't notice because you were too busy gazing at the hot popular girl in front of you. Don't go for the obvious kill, so to speak. Remember, the best things in life are hidden.

    Also, don't think that being single is a bad thing. My motto:

    Don't look for love. Let it find you.

    Of course you don't want to take that literally and lay all day in front of the TV eating peanut butter or something. Just relax dude.

    Okay, girls, sometimes dont know whats best for them. They usually date jerks cuz theyre hot, or popular. if they do that, then ya really dont wantem. wait for the right girl to come. but if ur non social, i would reccomend talking more.
