How come I can't get just one girlfriend?

So I was at a county fair today hoping to maybe get a number or two from a nice and attractive girl, because I wanted to see if I could finally reel one in, just once...but of course I couldn't once again. Usually I just let them come to me, and I came so close by doing that today with a beautiful girl who seemed to have followed me and my friend around, she even got on a ride with us alone. But she didn't say anything to me so I wasn't really sure if she liked me or my friend at all because after the ride she walked off with her friends. Since I blew it this time, I want to ask for some advice on how to do better the next time around (im going back to the fair monday). Just how can I be more confident in these situations, because right now i'm not at all...

    Hey heywhatzup,

    You need to relax and focus on being you, a person who is friendly (you, as you see others as friends) and approachable (you, as others see you, someone they would be friendly to). Practice this as a way of life, each day, every day, wherever you are, whoever you meet, those who you like and those you do not like.

    Be naturally friendly and approachable, even if it's someone for whom you immediately sense some attraction (which happens often when you are single and unattached). The key is to be sincere and not to expect something in return, they may or may not feel the same attraction you instinctively feel. But most people respond to someone who is friendly and approachable.

    Just a simple hello to start the ball rolling. Finding a girlfriend is several steps away. take them one step at a time. If you leap many steps when the lady is only taking a small step towards you, the unbalance creates awkwardness that quickly destroys any further steps together. So, relax and simply be you.

    All the best.

    Alex

    This probably isn't the answer you're looking for but to me, it seems like it's harder to get a girl when you're looking for one. You start to see every attractive person of the opposite sex as a potential girlfriend instead of just the people who you would actually be compatible with so you're trying out more possibilities, even if they were never very likely.

    It's kinda like this (sorry for the girly analogy I'm about to give you, but it's the best way I can describe it lol) you want a pair of red shoes to go with an outfit. So you go into the store and try on every red shoe, even if it's not very cute.

    Ik this isn't advice on how to do better next time but hopefully this helps a little. good luck! :)

    It'll come to you dude. i used to be like you but this girl came to me and asked me out and i've been dating her for about a year. Either you can be lucky like me or put yourself out there. Talk to some girls, be yourself and just be confident.
