What I meant when I mentioned those was more along the lines of helping out generally - thought maybe your computer experience might come in handy. It's really just about finding a group that you like handing out with. But, who knows? Being around that atmosphere might unleash your inner ham!

I don't know if this will help you get a girl, but thought you might like a woman's perspective Women like guys who feel confident about themselves. Or at least act confident. If you aren't satisfied with yourself physically, start taking better care of yourself (women like that and they notice). That might make you feel more confident too. Something else that is hard to do, especially if you are shy, is to put yourself out there. What I mean by that is going out and meet girls. LOTS of girls. Practice, practice, practice! The more you do it the easier it will seem. Make it your project - to talk to one new girl every day. One other thing, I suspect that the girls you've been talking to have been in the "friend" category. To be considered serious boyfriend material you have to let your them know you're interested in going out. PS There are a LOT of girls at school! I hope this helps.

I went through the same sort of thing when I first moved here. The suggestions about going out and about are good. It's easier when you have something in common - like a hobby. You might want to try taking some courses, maybe digital photography? Volunteering is also a good way to meet people. I don't know if you have public broadcasting, but US stations are always asking for volunteers, or community theaters. Work is good too, if you have a group that hangs out together. The important thing is get out, even if it feels strange to go on your own at first. Good luck!
