accepted
21 years old. 22 in a month. i'm smart, medical school-bound, and i don't think i'm ugly. i've been working out too, since i'm tired of being a scrawny piece of shit. last girlfriend cheated on me, leaving me heartbroken with a shattered sense of self worth and unable to trust anyone.

this is the kick in the ass i need to get over my heartbreak.

i know a few girls who are interested in me, and one even asked me to be her boyfriend, but i'm not gonna say yes to someone just because of this challenge. it has to be someone i am truly interested in being in a relationship with.

Ah, it would be funny if a densha otoko situation happened as a result of this challenge. I can see it  now!

>>42
I'm not familiar with that. Care to fill me in on what happens?

>>43

Seriously? How could you not know about that?

Anyway there was an otaku in japan who met a girl and fell in love with her. He went on 2chan to get advice, ended up getting the girl and left his otaku lifestyle behind.

A book was written about it and  it also became a TV drama and such. Back in the day everyone on 4chan knew about it.

I'll take the challenge. I win anything if I pull it off by Halloween?

No, I won't. I don't want a disgusting 3D girlfriend. Sorry.

So, okay, just a few days ago I broke up with my girlfriend. It wasn't a huge dramatic thing, in fact the reason was simply that she was gay and just not attracted to me anymore. The same night, I went to a party held by a girl I had known for years. I was feeling pretty shitty, despite how clean the breakup was. I started drinking. Wound up professing my love for the girl who hosted the party, and she admitted she liked me too. We both admitted that it was too early though to start a relationship. I learned all of this from scattered text messages, the last of which read, "looloo im soo wasteed"

So now what.

>>48

Sounds like you blew your chance.

I might have some luck; currently, I am a freshman at Yale and I swear to god, straight guys are a fucking minority here. Then again, I am on the nerdy side of the nerd spectrum...I will watch every episode of Naruto and One Piece Dubbed if I fail.

>>49

Eh, she wasn't that great looking anyways. Average intelligence too, a big turn-off for me. I'm actually thinking of asking out this real quiet girl. She's smart, dyes her hair, plays obscure japanese videogames, and is short enough for me to put my chin on her head.

Oh god i am a namefag only temp so whatever.

my plan

1. Scout for prospects right now

4 girls in line
(asian,shy,) Meet her while doing laundry but talked both times we saw each other. 

(mexican/hispanic, smart) Older than me studying at the library
Didn't say anything. Waiting for a opening for now.

(hispanic) Talk to her during English class ok not the best looking

(white, Hungry for cock) she was throwing herself at me shit was weird no into that type of girl but maybe if i get to know her.

You`re trolling, right?

I'm thinking of joining this challenge myself, but my prospects aren't looking too good.  I'm not particularly funny, or good looking, and I've been a bit of a shut in for the past couple of years.  I wouldn't even be going to school at the moment if my mom hadn't found out she had terminal cancer...  So I've been doing everything I can on my end to at least make myself look like I'll make it on my own before she goes.  Getting into a relationship's been on my mind as something she'd probably like to see, and this thread being coincidentally here is the last kick in the ass I need to get started.

I've thought about this for awhile before.  I had a list written down of things I'd need to change in my lifestyle if I were to try something like this.
1) I need a job - this one's pretty self explanatory
2) I need to get back into school - since I don't really have any talents, this would at least increase the chances of somebody not thinking I'm a loser.  It also doubles up to give me chances to meet people
3) I need to change my appearance - aka get a haircut, shave more often than once in a blue moon or when I go out, shower, work out/go outside, not always wear a cheap plain t-shirt w/ shorts, not slouch so much etc.  Things that help with a first impression~
4) I need to learn conversation - I'm fine at talking about something once I get started, but I'm no good at bringing up new topics.  I tend to rant a lot too...
5) I need some self confidence - This is last because, if I can take care of the things I already listed, I should be fine on this.

Out of those 5 points I've only done #2 so far.  Looks like I've got a lot of work ahead of me.

>>54

Why would I? That's just how she is. I mean, she's 19 years old, she's just short as fuck.

Well, I'm slightly closer to my goal now. I was chatting up this girl in my physics class today and maybe after 5 or so minutes of talking I got her cell number. She said how she didn't know anyone in the class since she was a transfer student from out of state and she said she needs to copy someone's notes from time to time since she goes home every once in a while to the Midwest, this weekend being the case, so I'll have to tutor her a little bit next week before the first test of the semester.

Maybe being the nice guy will actually work out for me for once.

>>55

I feel for you bro, and I think if you could get this to work out it would be a good way to honor your mother and give her less to worry about.

Anyway I've been reading an e-book called "Askmen.com Style Bible" a lot of it is about high fashion, but some of the tips don't require a huge amount of cash and if you're looking to change your appearance it wouldn't be a bad idea take a trip to /rs/ and skim through it and focus on the important parts. The same goes for anyone else taking this challenge who thinks dressing better will help.

>>57
>transfer student

It's just like one of my japanese animes!

Good luck bro, maybe if you're lucky you can go climb Tartarus with her!

I've already been rejected 10 times!  This challenge is hard.

>>61

How could one possibly get rejected 10 times over the course of 3 days?

What exactly are you doing?

>>56
Sounds like my ideal then. She has DFC too?

Posting an update for great justice:
Found some announcement of local anime convention on the internets. Going to visit it, though I don`t expect much. Heard all anime fangirls are fat whales, anyway.

>>64

I've gone to a lot of conventions. Met some pretty good looking girls there too.

Always fucked up with them though. There are a decent amount of fat/ugly girls there too, usually you have better chances if you go to a larger one.

Regardless, it's worth a shot. I find it *much* easier to strike up a conversation with a girl at a con then anywhere else.

I think this is stupid. Everyone who goes to cons to pick up women are stupid.

If you want to contend with me, if you dare to match wits with me, than I challenge you, see if you could even possibly match my cerebral might... then call me.

I will destroy all of you.

You can call me Zach. Also known as YOUR GOD.

Do I have to keep her until Christmas or is dating a few times ok?
I hit it off pretty well with a bridesmaid at a bachelor party the other week. Trouble is I live in a different state but I'm planning to ask her out anyway.

>>67
You have to keep her til Christmas, but if you have a long term relationship and you're seeing her on a semi-regular basis (regular for you anyways), that works too.

This sounds like a fine idea that I'll get to work on tomorrow. I have a girl after me right now but in all honesty I find her really unattractive. I feel terrible about it especially considering I myself have never had a girlfriend but I just don't like her at all. It also doesn't help that she's a huge weeaboo who loves that LOL XD SO RANDOM humor that makes me cringe.

So I guess I'll try out my college classes. I would try my work-out center but the girls that go there are either way out of my league or much older than me. A problem for me in regard to picking up women is mainly starting the conversation. I feel uncomfortable just walking up to a girl and talking to her and that tends to show. I can keep a conversation going just fine though. I also have a hard time being myself but at the same time I can't put up a facade or nice guy act and when I do try it probably comes across as anxiously creepy. Finally, I'm broke. Dating is expensive and I don't really have the money to throw around. Hopefully I can work around this with the small amount I do have.

I'll report back on this later and hopefully I'll at least have gotten a couple phone numbers by then.

>>69
Well good luck man.

Personally, it's a good idea to just talk about the course material in your college classes at first and it makes the transition to simple chit-chat a lot easier. The number I got started out just from talking with a girl about how our professor manages to say a little when he says a lot.

>>68

I'm considering the challenge complete if I start dating a girl and she says she's my GF or that I'm her BF. If I don't feel like dating her until X-mas, I'm not going to.

Shouldn`t we create a new thread on /a/, so anons who missed this last time could join?

>>71
Well, it`s your right. Though keeping a gf until christmas (so you can dump her on eve, if you so choose) is a part of challenge too.

>>73

I don't see anything about keeping her in that.

>>72

I figure Hayate or someone will start a new thread about it. I figure at least one thread about it on /a/ a week to keep people reminded is a good idea.

>>74
Well, I guess that's my fault for not being specific. You should keep her.

>>75

I barely have the confidence to think I may be able to get one to begin with. I highly doubt I'll be able to keep one for very long, let alone long enough to actually complete the challenge.

OK how do i do this. i just go get a girlfriend? is that it? ill do that now then

i just asked my girlfriend if she would be my girlfriend and she said yes. YOU GUYS I DID IT

>>78

She was already your girlfriend. You need to dump her and get a new one or you lose.

>>78
Well, good job then!
