I don't understand what I'm doing wrong or what is wrong with me that leads to this permanent friendzoning (10 years and counting if I recall correctly...might be slightly exaggerated, I dunno) but I just...need help.

What do I have to do to get a woman interested in me?
OK. Number 1 DON'T stop being respectful in as far as just resorting to skeevy pub girl hunter with all sketchy actions and dialogue that that implies.

I know your pain bro, I am in the same boat but have been getting better. I managed to attract a few girls but we were in different places in our lives so it didn't peter out.

But here's the thing, if I had to distill advice down to one bullet point, Don't worry so much about "being nice" and more about being YOU and more importantly A HAPPY FUN AND CONFIDENT YOU.
There's more to it, but you have to get out of a "OH I HAVE TO DO THIS RIGHT OR I'LL NEVER ATTRACT THIS CHICK" mindset, trust me, it blew me some GREAT chances. And chicks can smell it a mile away.

Here's a GREAT site with free tips and insights.
