Being quirky and different is stopping me from finding a girlfriend
DEAR DEIDRE: BEING quirky and different is stopping me from finding a girlfriend.
Unlike other guys my age, I have a unique sense of style and, unusually, I enjoy listening to jazz, not pop or rap.
I’m 18 and have zero luck with women.
I’ve tried chatting up girls in pubs and clubs, asking out mates at college, and even online dating, but I always get knocked back or ignored. It’s making me feel so unattractive and rejected.
I did have a girlfriend when I was at school, but she cheated on me and then dumped me.
People tell me I’m a nice guy, and I’m kind and funny. So why can’t I find a girl who appreciates me?
Am I ugly?

DEIDRE SAYS: Being quirky and having your own interests make you an individual, and the right girl will appreciate that.
I’m certain you’re not ugly. And you’ve had a girlfriend before, so clearly women find you attractive.
Perhaps when you chat women up you’re coming across as too keen, which can be off-putting.
