I am 24 and have always been single. I have no trouble attracting guys, as I am very good looking, nice, and am a smart grad student..but--I never get anywhere with any of them because I do not have the guts to ask them out..and they NEVER ask me out. I am always very friendly and make an effort to see and talk to them when they show an interest and flirt with me, but it never gets anywhere other then friendly chatting, and they seem to eventually lose interest. I am quite depressed about this since I feel that 24 is a bit old to have never been in a relationship.

Maybe you are making too much of an effort. Sometimes when a guy really thinks you like him a lot, he gets scared and runs...A bit of acting aloof and not as interested sometimes does the trick. As game-playing as this may sound, it seems to work for me. (Although it's usually I am trying to avoid guys who like me, but the avoidance just makes them continue to call me).
Also, just be yourself. But don't be overbearing and overfriendly to a certain guy that may like you or you may like. He might just get scared or bored of this.

I know exactly how you feel. I was in the same situation. First of all, if a guy is really interested in you AND SINGLE, he'll ask you out. So, these guys have either not been THAT interested in you OR they have a girlfriend. In addition, have you everthought that maybe you're sending the wrong signals when flirting? How about going out with a friend who has more experience than you, and ask her to observe you when you're flirting to see if you're sending different signals than you'd intended.

Look into their eyes and make good eye contact. Men tend to feel more comfortable when you look them in the eye. Also, be more assertive and possibly wear a sexy skirt with hills. Men find skirts a turn on. If flirting and dressing a little more sexy does not help, ask them out.

if you can talk and flirt with them, i don't see why you can't ask them out??? i used to have that problem but i decided to take action, that is asking those that i like out on dates. Guess what...most guys actually think that it's cool for a girl to make the first move. And it helps to eliminate those that you think are interested but actually they are not that into you...isn't that great. so go and work your charm and trying asking the next hottie out. Relax and just go out and have fun!

So, what is your question? As a "smart grad student" I would assume you understand the difference between a long, wandering statement, and an interrogative. Please, tell me you're not an English major.
