Hi, I'm Kyle.
I'm 22yrs old and haven't been with a women in nearly 2 years. Last of which is my ex-girlfriend, the only women I ever had sex with. As long as it has been since then, I do not want a serious relationship and the label of bf/gf. I am far too young to simply get attached to another women for a long period of time. There are countless gorgeous women out there and I want them to be mine.

My lack of confidence is definitely a huge contributor. I know I am a very good-looking guy (finally starting to let it truly sink in). Just being out of the house has helped reinforce this a lot. A lot of girls notice me in a good way. Based off body language I can tell that think I am cute/handsome/whatever. I tend to just "clam up" when I talk to women, not knowing what to say. I start to feel VERY awkward and self-conscious. I then ALWAYS to put myself down in my own head, thinking that she thinks I'm weird or being a creep.

I tend to start talking to a girl, whom I am very interested in. She is the only one I am talking to, which I know is what I shouldn't do. So, I start to take a real interest in getting to know her, because the personality of a women is one of most important things to me. But things always fell through for some reason, usually because she looses interest in me. I believe its because I have a lot of trouble keeping conversations going. This applies to hanging out with a girl in person and but primarily through text messaging. Even though I have (a lot of) extra time to think of a response. But when this happens it puts a serious damper on my confidence, making me feel down about myself. It then takes me a while to scrounge the courage to try again.

Sometimes I'll meet a girl and get her number. But keeping her interested in me through texting is very difficult. I just have no idea how to respond in a way that keeps the conversation going and her interest in me. I never know what to talk about/topics to bring up.

But I have taken a huge step recently. I started talking to a girl in my class, got her number, and have gone with out her a few times since, and am still talking to her. The biggest problem is keeping conversation going through texting. I just can't think of what to say next, let alone an interesting topic to stay on for a bit.
