Just be yourself. Just because you are younger doesn't mean you can't have/be friends with peeps older than you. Don't worry about what to say.  You already have something in common, the rodeo.

You think a 25-30 yr. old female would want to date you? Here's a free dating service: Go to a senior citizen's dance, they are more your age. Maybe someone there can teach you how to grow up.\nP.S. If women your own age don't want you, what makes you think a younger one would? Geesh!

Let me give you a piece of advice . . . don't worry about it . . . young girls usually don't date guys their age . . . only guys they see that has popularity, looks, or money.\n\nRight now you are their poindexter . . . if they do go out with you now . . . it would be only for a free dinner while they see someone after their dinner with you.  I know it is harsh but true . . . \n\nI do not whether you are in high school or college . . . but don't worry about.  Go to college . . . get a degree or two . . . and obtain a very successful career . . . .  Make money and become successful.  Fulfill your career goal . . . make 6 figures . . . and when you are able to do that you will be able to get those girls' (who ignored you) daughters . . . perfect revenge.\n\nYou will get a girl . . . be patient . . . meanwhile warm up on some older ladies (those that are 5-10 years older).  A young man chatting up the older ladies will more likely reach success in those areas . . . . I have commented on this before and got rated best answer on Young Men and Older women.  Please check it out . . . it may help.  Also . . listen to Tom Leykis (a radio personality in Los Angeles) . . . he will have a lot pointers to get you what you want . . . he is streaming on-line between 3-8 pm PST on http://www.blowmeuptom.com . . . and click on the listen live link.

Yes in deed.... You are focused on the negatives here... Lots of people work nights so that I don't think is the problem.  Get involved in a group in your town of some kind or volunteer.  Quit looking for love, it will find you!  When you least expect it and at the place you would never look.  Get up and get going time is a wasting... Write down a list of all the things  you like to do and start from that as far as find people to socialize with.  Also if you go to church look in your sunday school dept.  Remember women lead  you to women!   So get moving!  wont be long  till your question will be " I don't have enough time for all my friends and work, what do I do?

Try to relax.  The more you stress over it, the worse it may become.\n\nTreat them as potential friends, not potential girlfriends.  Women want to be treated as equals, individuals.  Not something to be conquered.\n\nDiscreetly, copy what you've seen your friends do to get themselves girlfiends, and modify that behaviour to suit you.\n\nDon't try to approach a group of women.  If you see one you like, make eye contact, smile then look away.  A few minutes later, look at her again, if she looks your way, holds your gaze, and smiles it means she's interested in you.  Approach, casually, if and when she's on her own and offer to buy her a drink.  \n\nShe might even approach you first!\n\nIntroduce yourself. Ask her a few casual questions: What does she think of the bar/pub/whatever you're both in? What is there to do in the local area? You fancy going to the cinema, can she recommend a good film? Has she ever been to Dubhai, cos you've heard it brilliant?  That kind of thing.  Just casual, non-threatening conversation.  Forget about using "chat up lines", they can come across as lame.\n\nDon't be too eager, maintain some mystery.  The biggest turn-on (for both men and women) is confidence.  The biggest turn-off is someone who won't take no (whether said verbally or by body language) for an answer.\n\nPlay it all by ear.  Listen to your intuition, it will guide you.\n\nYou have friends so you can't be that bad(!).  Your description of yourself sounds attractive, so nothing wrong there.\n\nAbove all, be yourself.  If your interest is not returned, hold your head high and move on.

If you're looking for one special girl, consider following these tips to get a girlfriend. \n \n   \n \n  \n  Steps:  \n1.   Know what type of girl you're looking for. Make a list of traits that appeal to you, such as intelligence, looks, ambition, sense of humor, or respect for other people's feelings.  \n  \n2.   Resolve old hurts and disappointments. Make sure you're ready for a new relationship by setting aside any grievances about old girlfriends.  \n  \n3.   Attract the type of girl you're looking for by emphasizing your best features and downplaying undesirable traits. Make the most of what you have, both physically and mentally.  \n  \n4.   Learn how to make a girl feel good about herself by taking an interest in her life and her aspirations.  \n  \n5.   Consider any unattached girls at your school or work. Do any of them match the qualities that you want in a girlfriend?  \n  \n6.   Get involved in activities that you enjoy to give yourself the chance to meet new girls. Expand your horizons and your circle of friends.  \n  \n7.   If you have your eye on a certain girl, let mutual friends know about your interest in her. Ask someone you trust to discreetly tell her about your interest.  \n  \n8.   If you don't have the nerve to directly approach a girl who has caught your eye, consider being her secret admirer for a while. Send her sweet, anonymous messages or notes (with a few subtle clues about your identity) to let her know about your interest in her.  \n  \n  \n  Tips:  \n Love can surface in unexpected places and at unexpected times. Keep your eyes open for the right girl for you.  \n  \n  \n  Warnings:  \n Don't settle for anybody just so you can say you have a girlfriend. Be selective to find the right girl for you.

I'm pretty much a loser around women and even I managed to get a few dates on Yahoo personals.  That or just go places and do the things that you enjoy to do...maybe you'll find someone who enjoys the same things.

It's easy to find single women expecially after 30 but probably hard to meet men.  I think the best place to find guys would be at professional assocations.  If you are an accountant, go to an accountant association meeting, real estate investor, computer professional, teacher, etc....  Some of the guys will be single and all of the guys will be staring at you.

20 yrs and counting...3 years ago, and I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't made that friend!!\nI don't think that it's much more difficult to make friends as you age but that friendship takes on a different role. When you are younger, you have more time to play and hang out but as you age priorities take on a different meaning. It's not so much about fitting in or being accepted but paying bills and dating and children or work and career and its really difficult to step out of that groove and invite someone into your personal space or trying to tap into someone's  list of things to do... It's unfortunate-I really do think that friendship should have as much importance in the lives of 30 year olds as it does in the lives of 13 year olds but that is how it is (and I think it does-it just manifests itself in a different way-a quick phone call instead of a walk or a 1/2 hr coffee instead of an evening out drinking)...I have also noticed this-As you age (well into late life, seniors, old foggies) there seems to be a very high networking of friends (ladies quilting, men playing chess). So, not to worry, there will your later years when people are surrounded by their "senior buddies".

It's important to start off slow.  You don't want to go to the club, the people there are pro's!  It may sound funny, but go to Wal-Mart or to a grocery store or a bookstore; lots of real women go to these places.  Make small conversation about something like the weather or something.  Try it, it should work for you.

Try this: \n\n1. Start with your interests/sports and invite her there (say, bowling alleys, swimming pools, etc.)\n2. Carry yourself modestly. Don't overdo it. \n3. A well behaved men sometimes attract women (i think).\n4. Invite her to parties for singles.\n5. Ask her friends what her favorite food is and invite her to YOUR house for dinner.\n6. don't go to the bars (it's risky).\n7. If you are good to one girl , this will be passed around in a jiffy. And you will meet more girls...for you to choose from.\n\nALL THE BEST.

I agree. College seems to be the best place to meet girls. Grad school is ideal for the women you're looking for. It definitely makes sense. I should also mention that if you enroll in a teacher education course, the ratio of men to women will definitely be to your favor.\n\nYou can also try the gym. For some reason, I see a lot of mature women there. It seems mature women are more concerned about their bodies then "undergrad" age women. Maybe that's just my gym. Or maybe it has to do with them being "mature."\n\nBars. Mature girls like to have fun at bars. They are more approachable there too, especially after a few drinks. Go to the popular ones with the big cover charge. You'll find them there instead of at the seedy, dark local place next to the convenience store.\n\nInternet personal ads. Yep, girls  older than 24 who focused on their career are now looking to meet a partner to settle down with. If the office does not provide a good gene pool for them, they branch off into the Internet to look for nice guys just like you! Think about it.\n\nAnyway, these are the best suggestions I could come up with. I'm sure you already knew all this, but it's surely worth best answer, right? Good luck!

Are there any clubs in your area that have activities you like that you can join?  Does your town ever have any fairs or anything that you can go to?  Try asking a friend if he or she knows any single ladies looking for friends to do things with, and start out that way.

Look for people of your own age in your area.  That way it's someone you have soemthing in common with.

The best thing for you to do is to concentrate on going places where you would hang out because it's what you like to do.. there you will find girls you have something in common with.\n\n--- Examples:\n\nSports: If you like sports get yourself to a game and chat with someone in the bleachers.\n\nMovies: If you see a girl sitting alone at a movie, find a way to chat with her.\n\nIf you like to drink coffee.. hit up a Starbucks and chat with a girl in line.\n\nEvery day there is an opportunity. Do not, and I repeat, Do not go to a club or bar to meet a girl if you do not like to go clubbing or barhopping. You need to meet a girl in an environment you like to be in or it ads to the awkwardness.\n\nA HUGE part of meeting women is having confidance. \n\nIf you feel comfortable talking to a co-worker or student, and that is what your psyche needs to be in- pretend the person you are talking to is a co worker or student. There is no need to psych yourself out and focus on the fact that the person you're talking to is a stranger that you don't know. That's half the fun of meeting people.. getting to know them!\n\nRemember this: The number one common factor in all successful relationships is that someone had the courage and confidance to say hi and start up a conversation.\n\nDo not be afraid of rejection. If a girl says no, forget about it and go find another one. Life is too short for you to worry about being shy. You need to go out there to places you like to hang out and have a good time. Chances are you'll meet someone in your everyday life... Maybe while you're at the laundromat, or the supermarket.\n\nLive your life to the fullest, be confidant always and have a good time. You only get to have each day once. In life there are no do-overs. So go out there with a big smile on your face and a huge amount of confidance, because you are a wonderful, unique individual and there is someone out there right now who is thinking about meeting you just like you are thinking about meeting her.\n\n\nGood luck finding Ms. Right! Look out for you--
