Seeing Counselling Services?

In other words, you're shy and lack self confidence. Yeah, a lot of men are like that. How do you get over it? Testicular fortitude, brother.

Women are into men who are tough and have self-confidence. You lack self-confidence because you believe that women aren't into you. See the cycle? Break that shit. Go to the damn gym. Work out. Get shredded. Not only will that make you more physically attractive, but it will boost your self confidence. Win-win.

Now as for counselling, in my opinion the counselling resources we have at UBC are quite constrained at the moment. Given this fact I believe they should be reserved for people with very urgent concerns. Not having a lady-friend isn't necessarily the most urgent concern in the world.

Don't get me wrong, though. I don't want to downplay your problem. If this is seriously affecting your life, by all means pursue counselling (though UBC counselling isn't supposed to be very good, search this subreddit for discussion regarding this).

I just want you to know that a lot of guys have (or have had in the past) similar issues. You're not alone, and your situation is certainly not abnormal.
