Awkward girls

Hi all. I'm new to this forum business so please bear with me if I did anything wrong. Anyway, I just wanted to ask if any of you girls find socially awkward and dorky girls appealing? I believe that I'm socially awkward and weird that sometimes I find it hard meeting and socializing with people which makes it difficult for me to meet girls, and I would really like to meet some girls =D. It's just that I have self-esteem issues and I get discouraged easily so I need to work on that but hopefully I'll get there.

Any comments will be appreciated.

Cheers.

Awkward and dorky girls are

Awkward and dorky girls are cute :). And being shy is ok. I'm shy if i get into a nev enviroment, but after i getting used to it, the shyness goes away. In most cases you don't need too much effort to overcome your weakness. Take care.

don’t ever get

don’t ever get discouraged. i was awkward and dorky when i was young. as i got older, the awkwardness went away, but alas the dorkiness stayed. and for someone who lacked social skills, i managed to meet a wonderful woman who found my dorkiness adorable and still does (we celebrate our 14th year together next week!). so here’s to being awkward, dorky and shy!

awkward girls are adorable :) I'm always falling for them. I suppose awkward people are just easier to relate to, as I'm pretty shy and can be a bit awkward myself sometimes.

YES!!!!

My girlfriend is awkward in all ways and I think it is the most adorable thing in life. It took me walking up and introducing myself for us to meet. So even if you don't go to meet a girl one might come up to you.

I got the same problem

Its not that I'm generally socially awkward, I can talk to anyone. On a night out clubbing I always end up talkin to some random ppl when I go outside to the smoking area. But as soon as I am talkin to a woman I like all my social skills escape me and I find myself on a rant about how Tyra Banks is God or that Buffy should be taught in schools instead of shakespear.

Also I'm a major geek, I study Chemistry in uni and I love my PS3. I'm pretty much like every geeky character they have on comedies except I'm not a dude. My gay male friends all tease me and say I'm gonna end up a mad cat lady 'cause I'm so useless with women. Which wouldn't be so bad if I weren't allergic to cats! lol
