Getting a beautiful white women is the same as winning a lottery.Ever heard of the dude that won the lottery but never bought a lottery ticket?
Nah, didn't think so. Savvy??
It's not so much the rejection itself that bothers me. It's the ridicule and gossip that follows after. I don't want the reputation or image of being a hopeless romantic.
You remind me of me. I'm twenty-six and I've never been in an actual relationship. I can probably relate to you more than anyone else here and I've been given all of the typical advice that you mentioned (give it time, be yourself, be more aggressive, etc.). After repeated rejections I also ceased to chase women with the same enthusiasm that I had before.
I don't think anyone gave you reassurance because there is none! People die alone every day. Relationships are not guaranteed. It's a reality - possibly my reality. The incredible marketability of female attention says it all. Women get paid money just to talk to guys. Male attention will never be as marketable because most men are already eager to interact with the opposite sex. My solution is to not think about them so much. Although it's a poor solution, it helps me to cope with my involuntary celibacy, a condition that you can read more about by googling.
A lot of women end up alone as well, I don't think this issue is a gender based one.
There's a very thin slice of the female population which fits your marketable criteria.
Women who are not "traditionally attractive" or who are older, or overweight, or disabled are disappeared in our society, too.
As a younger woman I fit the traditionally attractive mode, and certainly had no trouble attracting men, but attracting men in general isn't the same as attracting the *kind* of men you'd want to be with.

Ok, maybe no picture.... that's cool. Here are my tips on how to get dates, but never find 'the one'.
The truth is a lot of the annoying cliche things that you hear are true. For example, 'swag'. A lot of men hear women mention Lil Wayne or 50 Cents 'swag' and try to emulate that. Swag to me means first finding yourself, second being comfortable with who you are, and finally being confident in yourself. Very cliche, I know... but hear me out. You want to attract women who are appropriate for your lifestyle. So if you project an image that is not you two things will happen. 1) You'll be exposed as fake, 2) You'll find yourself in frustrating situations with women who really are not a good match for you. The key here is confidence, people will pick up on that. Keep your head high, cause you're the shit. Have the mentality that if a woman turns you down, it's her loss not yours.
TRY not to take anything personal. Not rejection, not ridicule, nothing. If you approach a woman and she is not interested, it's merely a reflection of her own personal tastes. The common mistake that we make when rejected is to feel that we're not good enough for the other person, and then we begin to feel bad about ourselves. That is your ego at work. Don't let that happen... some people have in their mind so specific a description of the partner that they desire that they're blind to good men with good intentions, this is to their own disadvantage. As soon as you let rejection start to make you feel down about yourself, you begin to lose confidence and that is very easy to pick up on.
Paniro kinda touched on this earlier, but cast a wide net. Unless you're Irba Derba, the way dating works these days it's generally going to be an application process for men and a filtering process for women. Don't wait for the right one to come to you... that will happen either way. If you see someone that you like, approach her with confidence. Keep trying and keep trying and keep trying.... just don't take the rejection personal. If it starts to get to you and get you down, take a step back until you get your confidence back and get right back to it.
How do you approach women? Are you as stiff as a board? Are you robotic and calculated? Women are kinda like human beings too. Be flirtatious, charming, witty and funny... crack jokes (be appropriate and don't over-do it). Here's another mistake greenhorns make... be able to talk and keep up in the conversation. If you've just met someone, the last thing that you want is for them to become bored with you. You know when you talk to someone new and sometimes there's that moment of silence and you begin thinking to yourself "oh shit, I better come up with something to say".... then you say some witty shit like "So, whats your favorite color?" thinking she'll believe that you're interested in her likes and dislikes? Don't do that. Pay attention to her, if you see that she is tapping her foot to a song playing in the background, comment on that "Ok, I like your taste in music... I'm going to guess you also like <whatever>". Don't ask too many questions... it seems like you're trying too hard. "What do you do for fun?" "What's your favorite food?" "What do you do for work?" drop all of those. Keep your hands out of your pockets and don't cross your arms.... use hand gestures, but don't over-do it unless she's deaf and you're doing ASL. Uhm.... when you're ready to ask her out, don't say "Would you like to go to dinner with me?"... instead say "Cirque du Soleil is in town this week, I'd love to have your company to the show.... maybe after the show we can go back to my house and I can fingerbang you a little bit."
Oh, and don't be too complimentary... it comes across as disingenuous and also desperate. She is just as lucky to date you as you are to date her.
Most important thing. Tell pretty women they're smart, tell smart women they're pretty. Don't say anything to pretty & smart women, they've already heard it all.
Oh yeah, I don't know how many female friends you have, but make more.
cosign
having female friends are the best. I got sound advice from them and 90% of the time it worked. sometimes all you have to do is listen to what they say and watch what they do and you will pick up on some good stuff.
lastly, they are good wingmen (women) and screeners. the reason is because they can help get you in there faster than men can. think about it. You are hanging with a slew of good looking women that are nonsexual friends at a bar resteraunt and you depart from them to go at a woman. more than likely that woman will know you are with them. she is going to ask what is what is up with that. you will tell her and also take her over to the table with you to meet them and continue to shoot your shot, she will more than likely give it up. also they will be able to get you some good info about a woman that you will never know. example if you want to date a particular woman and you let her know about it, she will be able to find some info about her that you will need to have to decide if you really want to date her or not.
everything you stated is right on point. especially the highlighted part.
when you first start out trying to campaign for women ...you are going to get shot down ....alot. dont get upset, just use it as a learning experience. I just refined my intro and everything after that and soon It was getting better. you must remain self confident at all times and say what needs to be said that is acceptable to them. dont come off as being thristy and obnoxious.
example: you see a woman at a store.....dont walk up saying "yo baby whats your name "
do say " excuse me. My name is _______ and I saw you and I wanted to meet you. whats your name ?"
You dont have to say word for word but something along those lines. this works because you are complimenting without complimenting because they will read between the lines. It also works because you are being polite and courteous and confident. trust me if you approach them and they are mature they will be nice to you because they know its hard to put yourself out there. just be cool in your approach. you get more flies wityh honey.
meaning dont say " I saw you and I wanted to tell you that you are so pretty" dont do that because you seem thirsty.
If you get shot down then so be it. then ask open ended questions and steer the convo accordingly, get the digits and get out. the convo shouldnt last no more than 2 minutes.

Wow some of you guys make me wanna slit my wrist talk about downers lol. Fellas its simple just focus on doing things you like and stack PAPER and stay in/get in shape. Its a simple formula and works very well. Oh most importantly stop listening to other women on the subject because as well meaning as some of them are
1. Most of them have a hard time figuring out what they want themselves so how can they coach anyone?
2. You can not ask prey how to capture other prey. What experience do they have getting women? They know what they like to see men do but they have zero clue how to do it.

Women are human beings, not prey animals. Jeebus.
Trix your feminist nonsense is getting just a tad boring now. I compared the act of dating to hunting because that's what is. Men seek out women its primal. When I see women asking out men as often as men ask out women then I'll concede until then you have no point my friend.
Noting that woman are human beings isn't a "feminist" statement. It's actual fact. Jeebus.
Trix if you honestly believe that for a second it was being suggested that women aren't people you don't understand the concept of an analogy Jeebus![]()

It's about as unpleasant to see yourself referred to as prey as it would be for you to see yourself referred to as an animal because you're black. It's a pretty jarring, unlikable thing which makes you wonder "Does the speaker really see women as prey animals?"
