could a depressed guy ever get a girlfriend?

I am a very shy person and I often have depressing thoughts.I'm always dressed in black and enjoy the dark, but I still have feelings like everyone else.I feel like everyone sees me and avoids me, and since I am shy it makes things worse because I can't go talk to other people.Maybe I am just being selfish and unrealistic but I would really like someone I could talk to and care for. there is this one girl that I find very attractive but we are complete strangers and I have no idea how I would introduce myself without being weird. I don't know any of her friends or anything, but I always see her because she hangs out near my usual hang out spot(btw I am in highschool). I wish I new other people's impressions of me.Maybe I should just ignore it and go on without a relationship, but I feel an emptiness in my heart and it hurts.

    Teenage years are a really confusing time, I wish I could've skipped mine altogether. Things will become more clear as you get older, in terms of perspective. As for depression, it is very common at your age, although many people feel it at different times, and some more often than others. Invest your time into something you love, and something that brings you happiness. Find a community that enjoys that as well, for instance playing guitar, or playing a certain video game, or art. There are many forums and online communities where you can meet people who share common interests as you, and who knows, maybe youll find the perfect nerd girl, or metal chick, whatever. As for this girl now, do your research! Start with "how to talk to girls"- don't be too afraid of rejection. Think of the perfect line to say to her and practice it. Find some common ground to talk about- "That biology test was super hard, how do you think you did?". Practice, young padawan.

    Once I had shy friend who joined a church and ask pastor to help him find a wife and the pastor foind a woman for him. Now this man lives happily ever after. If you want a life partner maybe you should do the same thing. Don't knock it before you try it.. Talk to yoi a Christian pastor about it anyway.

    Source(s): I pray God bless you. Also be happy anyway.

    You can still get a girlfriend. When you see this girl that you like just start by saying hi to her and see what she does. Then when you get confortable with that say a little more. Is this girl you like shy? If shes not if you get her attention she will show you if she likes you.

    maybe having a girlfriend will bring you out of your depression. try something new, make the first move. be bold. there's no way to know what people think of you, but maybe someone wants to be your friend, or girlfriend. just give it a try

    If you want to start being successful with girls its time to make some changes in your life.Its up to you.You have to start breaking out of the shness.You dont want to be devoted to that.

    As for girls you need to understand that there are rules to finding girls.Here's what you need to know:

    1)Start by looking around and notice which girls look at you and smile at you.Start doing that as of today.Look around.Which girls loook at you and smile at you? You werent aware of that so devote your time when you leave your house to look.

    2)If any of those girls are attractive to you then you should go up to them and start talking to them.Just get to know each other.If you dont know them just say "Hi.My name is Justin,I just wanted to meet you". You take it from there.

    3)Now you know which girls are interested in you so now you have to realise that girls that arent interested in you,you cant have them.Because they arent interested in you.Dont waste your time and dont waste their time.Thats how guys get rejected in the first place.

    Its all up to you.You need to get on with your life,break the shyness and find the right girls for you.You are lonely because made the effort to be.Make the effort to have a happy life.Its your choice.

    No, you are NEVER alone!

    Somewhere out there, there's a girl who feels just like you.

    And being shy isn't a problem. Most girls kind of like this. But just remember to be yourself :)

    Just start out by talking and being friends. And see where things go from there. Do NOT rush anything.

    If things work out, your heart won't feel so empty anymore ;)

    Good luck!!!

    A Church should be a good place to meet nice people. You need good friends.
