I'm open to tips/suggestions though if you have any
Then you're way ahead of the game. Hell, a lot of young girls like scrawny guys. It's a fad as of late or something. You totally can take advantage of that.

I guess all you're lacking is guts.

Was high school terrible for you? Guess what, it was for 95% of the people. Get over it. Don't like yourself? Guess what, most don't like themselves either so get over it. Life don't owe you crap. If you're content to sit by yourself in your room all day and play online games, it's your own damn fault you never got laid. So cowboy up, boy, and get out there.

Are you going to a four-year university or a community college? If the former, pick out the leftovers at a party/gathering...it's better than going home alone.

Dear GOD !!! LOL. I've been reading CD for a while and Doll eyes is the worst poster I've ever read on any forum....damnnn. I'd really be interested in knowing what makes a person become like that. Must be something horrific.

At another college I went to my freshman year, I DID go to parties, I just don't have any game and can't ever remember being eyeballed by a girl even

I know it's in my power to change it, although I'm pretty sure I have some mental problems at work as well (depression, namely).

So? Don't wait around for a sign. you want something, go after it like a hungry dog on a T-bone.

However you may need liquid courage. Better known as booze. It does wonders!

Oh no doubt, booze would be a necessity

First I have to make some friends though, been on a depressive spell that I haven't been able to kick since school started...

Just show up. No one watches who you're going/coming with.

My roommate in college dove in headfirst on his computer after discovering how awesome a T1 line was, so I went out by myself often. Half the times I meet some other guy up on the way and start up small talk. Small talk is no big deal, so don't get nervous over it.

I know that feel. My roommate has made just as little attempt to integrate into the social scene as I have, so I don't really have him as an outlet.

How do I show up to parties when I don't even know where they're at though? The area outside our campus is pretty sketchy, not sure it's a good idea walking around alone late at night. And showing up at a party alone seems like it'd require extra big cojones, something I've been lacking in lately

Good question. I don't know how the word gets around these days on a college campus. The millennium was fresh when I graduated. University Facebook/Twitter? Ask people in the next room, or something...hell, maybe even ask your RA.

If you're so afraid of rejection then just talk to a girl like it's just another friend and keep talking to her almost like you're in a relationship. Eventually she will want to be with you and be so tired of waiting for you to ask her that she might ask you..In any regard, I hope you change the way you think about things. I understand rejection can be difficult. Everyone has dealt with it at one time or another. You apparently have no resiliency if you let one girl win by rejecting you. You're always going to get knocked down in life at some time or another. That happens to us all. It's learning how to get back up which will give you that resolve/ resiliency in which you so need.
I'm not obligated to go out there and keep getting rejected. I'd rather keep my sanity thank you. lest I want to become another mass shooter.
