Blackhawk2009 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Ok im wondering whats the best way to meet girls in college? Some people have told me to meet them in the library and stuff, but what do you do..just walk up to them and say hi? lol. Only other option i can think of is girls in class Link to comment
iwishiknew Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yeah I am in college now and haven't meet any girls yet..I asked one girl if she would like to have lunch but she said no.. Link to comment
Batya33 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 When I was in college (mid 1980s) I met guys at various dorm parties and at the "ride board" which was a bulletin board (no internet back then!) where people posted messages (that is hard copy paper messages!) if they needed a ride back home for the holiday weekend or could offer a ride). Another way is to join clubs and activities where you work on projects together. Link to comment
lifestream Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yep, I'd have to go with the clubs...you can at the very least fake an interest and know what they're interested in. I've met some pretty great people at clubs, not just women. In the library I would say that its a bit intruding...try to get crowds of people. Friends through friends. Link to comment
BBHFutureAllAmerican Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 lifestream has it! yes, me at 16 years old has hit the college scene (have made a few college visits n have some friends who have the fake ids Link to comment
Maverick32x Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 friends of friends is the way I've managed to meet most girls here at school... however there is another way!! this might sound shallow (because it probably is) but the first day of class i always try to find the cutest girl to sit next to, and eventually I will just have a conversation at some point. And since I'm bad at studying alone, i usually ask them if they want to go to the library or something to study for a test.... they say "sure" we exchange phone numbers, and there ya go... a girl!!!!

lifestream Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I mean, it really does depend what you're looking for. But interest clubs give you an excuse to be interested in something you like while looking for a girl who shares the same interest. I didn't meet a girl I'm that interested in, but my friend and I went to a pro-christian presentation recently even though we formed a secular club at my university. My friend was given a minute or so to speak and he talked about the importance of religious and cultural dialogue and dozens of people came to shake his hand, even though he was openly secular. If he was looking for a girl, Im sure he would've been able to find one. A little can really go a long way. Just get yourself out there and don't be afraid to speak! I think we're way too hard on ourselves. Link to comment

I make a point to do that in every class. Last semester the cutest girl ended up coming to me and she asked me out on a date. I meet tons of women in college. Take some Early Childhood Development courses. Those classes are usually all women. Link to comment
Leonhart Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I meet tons of women in college. Take some Early Childhood Development courses. Those classes are usually all women. I tried doing that actually. Hahah. I thought it would be a great way to meet girls my age at school. Unfortunately, the system wouldn't let me register. I was really mad. I still am, in some ways. I guess it conflicts with my major or something. I dunno. Link to comment
lifestream Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I took a class with all women once but as funny as it sounds, none of them really "stood out" or caught my attention enough to want to know them more. Link to comment
g1234567890h Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Yeah I only went out with two or three women from those classes. I found my girlfriend in a psychology class. Link to comment
sddeaston Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Psychology, or medical field-oriented classes. TONS of women. Link to comment
Leonhart Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Psychology, eh? *joins up with a psychology class* Link to comment
wintersolstice Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I think you should choose your classes based on your academic interests... the best way to meet girls in college is through friends and through clubs... I think meeting girls in class (and going with the sole purpose of meeting girls) is a little shady (to say the least.) Join clubs and meet them through friends also having access to drugs and alcohol and being generous with these things will make you popular with ladies.... Why didn't anyone suggest joining a frat? If your gonna take classes to meet girls thats not a far cry from joining a frat.. Link to comment
bvnstar05 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 personally, i'm always in the library b/c i love to study (weird, i know) but i would love it if a guy in the library, who may also show some interest in studying, had started talking to me. if that seems a little strange, then i would go with your classes, maybe skip a class if you can and then ask a girl you kinda have your eye on if you could borrow her notes. that way you can get her name, email and phone # to return them to her!

lifestream Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 For some reason I always thought of that as kind of intruding...I mean, people are at the library to study for the midterm they should've studied for last weekend, not to socialize. Then again this is coming from a guy who WORKS at the school library Link to comment
vote4james Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 And here was me thinking I wanted to study psychology simply because it would lead me onto a fulfilling career! Link to comment

onewithbooks Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Ok this is coming from a girl who works in a college library, and met and dated 2 people who asked her out while working in the library. The library is the place to meet people. Not everyone is studying here. We have lots of people who come just to check their e-mail, my space, or facebook. Plus if you think the girl behind the counter is cute, ask how to find a book. I do think though that is possible to meet people anywhere, but I tend to be more interested in someone if they are doing things I like to do, e.g. checking out books, scanning the shelves in the library or a bookstore.

How can the library be a good place to meet people if you can't even talk? lol Serious question. Link to comment
therealshrek Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 my friend said something interesting the other day and it went something like this: "College is full of so many girls, just realize that anywhere on college campus is a good place to strike up a conversation with a gal. they are EVERYWHERE! and if you get rejected, oh well, just try another gal. ur bound to find girls around every corner that grab your attention." something to ponder on and really helped me muster up the courage to ask a girl out today. good luck man!

Arro Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm running into the same issues of having problems meeting girls at college. However, let me share something with you. Last semester I was studying at the library, and at the table next to me was a very cute girl. I was trying to think of something clever or funny to say, but I couldn't think of anything and eventually she left. Disappointed in myself, I went back to my dorm and asked a knowledgeable friend how I should have gone about it. Here's what he said: "Just get up, stretch, and yawn. Do it naturally, but in a way that will hopefully get her to notice you. If she does, ask her what she's studying." I actually haven't had a chance to try this out, but I thought it was worth sharing. Link to comment
