How I got loads of dates as a University Student

Little about me - I am 22 years old and I am in my final year of university. When I first started uni I didn't get many girls and neither did any of my friends. We were all pretty nerdy but not ugly, we just struggled to talk to girls and find girls. But during my time at uni since I was 18, I learned a few things that helped me go on way more dates and meet loads more women. This also applies to non-students as well.

1. Be social with everyone - University is a place to meet loads of people, it's very hard to not meet people. You've got coursemates, flatmates people you meet at events etc. So go and make some friends in all these places. Be social with everyone around, take their numbers or snaps, and ask them if they're doing anything for the weekend. Chances are, they will. Join them, they might have cute friends. That's how I met loads of girls. Sometimes I would go out for drinks with two or three people and a few girls might've joined because they knew one of the guys who joined us. From there I would talk to the girls and see how they are, their personality etc. Most times I got their snaps and sometimes even spent the night with them. Everybody has cute friends so the more friends you make, the easier it is to find cute girls. So go out when you can and be social. It also avoids you using dating apps. Nothing wrong with dating apps at all but if you rely on tinder to get girls then it will be very difficult to go on dates as tinder isn't always the most helpful. But if you are on tinder then there are posts on this sub about how to get more dates on there. Tinder can be a great place but being more social helps a lot especially with girls. I've made some great uni friends who ultimately have become amazing wingmen and also helped me get more girls.
2. Appearance - This isn't the most important one on the list but it does help and it certainly helped me. Although it is not that important it will be important if the girl is just looking for a one night stand and it will boost your chances. Firstly when it comes to appearance staying in shape is very important. Forget your height for a second, and start hitting the gym. I was skinny when I went to uni but since I've gained a lot of muscle, not a crazy amount but good enough to feel more confident. So get to exercising, a guy who's in shape great increases his chances with women. Get new clothes too. Develop your style. Don't be boring with it. You don't have to buy expensive clothes or shoes but clothes that fit and look stylish, not everything needs to be branded. If you're struggling in that department, go shopping with friends, maybe even a female friend that you trust to give you an honest opinion and help pick out clothes that look nice on you. Get some nice aftershave too. Get yourself a signature scent that smells nice. My go-to aftershave is Dior Sauvage. It's a nice strong smelling aftershave. Two sprays and it's enough. It is a little pricey but well worth it. And lastly, stay well-groomed. Cut your nails frequently, shave often, get yourself a regular barber and a nice haircut because those things go a long way. It makes you look better, more hygienic and sexy.
3. Confidence - If you get the first two down properly then this one should come easy. But if not and you're still struggling. Confidence is probably the most important thing on this list. Be confident, don't be scared of getting rejected by women. If they say no politely accept the rejection and move on. Don't cry about it or moan about it. You tried, on to the next one. Don't let it hurt your game. If they reject you don't make yourself think it's because you're too ugly. You're just not their type. But still be confident, walk with your head up, walk like you own the world, don't be afraid to talk to a stranger, male or female. Talk clearly and without stumbling over your words. Talk slightly slower if you need to. Confidence is always sexy, women love a man who goes out and says what they want. They don't want their time wasted.
4. Conversation - This is one I know a lot of people struggle on. I was insecure about my appearance and was very shy and unconfident but conversation was the one thing I was good at. If you're bad at talking to girls. Find conversation topics that are fun and also serious that you can ask and play on that. Always have a few go to lines when approaching a girl if you seem to get stuck and don't know what to say past "so what do you study? are you from around here?" A question I always ask is "There are 100 balls in a bag, 99 are blue, 1 is red. Every time you pick a blue ball you get $1,000,000 but pick the red ball and you die a painful death. How many are you picking?" It's a fun question to discuss and isn't a typical question so tends to develop the conversation a lot. There are other things to say to that you could get from Reddit such as r/WouldYouRather There are lots of good would you rathers there. But also have a few serious topics you want to discuss too like "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" A guy who can have a fun but also serious conversation is exactly what girls look for. So have these topics and questions lined up expand on each topic, let her ask questions of her own too. Don't turn it into an interview where you bombard her with questions.
5. Always pursue but never overly pursue - This was the hardest to learn while being a student. If you meet a girl and she thinks you're cute enough to give you her number. Pursue it. Text her and ask if she wants to get food or a coffee. Don't just text her about her day or try to have a conversation with her. Actually, go out and pursue her and ask to meet. Doesn't have to be this formal date and doesn't have to end in sex. It could be just 30 minutes sitting and enjoying coffee. But that can be enough. If she says no or if she says she's busy you don't have to ask for a schedule or ask when she's not busy. Just text her now and then to keep in contact. Once some time has passed, ask her out again. During this period of waiting, don't just strike down the days until you ask her out again, go see other friends, go on other dates, date other people. Keep yourself busy so if she does sadly say no again, it's not that big a deal to you. By waiting you show you're not desperate to see her and you can wait. Sometimes girls don't go on dates straight away because they might be seeing other people or going out with friends meeting guys a different way or maybe she just it busy. But by waiting things might have changed and if your text game strong enough you just might get that date in the end. And last but not least
6. Have fun and remember why you're here - You're here to get a degree and enjoy the experience. So go out with the boys. Play video games, study, get a job and earn some money and have fun. Life isn't always about getting chicks and having sex. But when you do go out and try to get girls, have fun with it. Enjoy it and loosen up. If you don't enjoy it you will get scared and find it more difficult to talk to girls. Don't lose focus on life and remember what comes first.

In my personal experience, I was a skinny kid who went to uni and had no game. But I hit the gym focused on education, spoke to more people and made more friends. I used those times to socialise with my friends but also to talk to girls. I stopped feeling sorry for myself and stopped caring so much about what other people thought of me. And that made me more confident to ask girls out on dates, ask for numbers and sometimes even in the shopping mall I would start a conversation with a hot girl, ask for her number and even go on a date because I had that confidence. I still have a lot to learn but I am happy with where I am. I know this all sounds like a typical cliche student but I do hope you learned something from this post.
