Topic: How do I make myself seem more "interesting"

Sometimes I think I bore people. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but it feels like when I talk to new girls that they seem "bored" of me really fast. I don't know why i think I'm a funny and interesting person, but I don't know why it seems like I may bore them. What would be a better way to "present" myself? Not that I want to embellish anything, but maybe its just the way I talk or something..

Do you usually control the conversation, do most of the talking? She may feel as though you don't want to get to know her....I have experienced this and after awhile...it becomes a problem

Just go with the flow. Ask questions. Don't just talk about you, but seem interested in what the other person has to say as well.
Input where you should, laugh when appropriate laugh and you'll be fine.

This is actually an easy fix if you are getting to the point where they are talking to you. Stop talking. Ask questions instead. Will prolong the conversation while you get to know them.. also they might mention something you have in common. Then there will be lots to talk about.

Just a thought.

Yea, I tend to ask questions and try and find out more about the other person, but I'm talking about anytime not just when we first talk. I don't talk to people on here all my talking is done via aim and sometimes when I get asked questions I have such boring/lame answers for her. =/

That sounds so wrongfrustrated either you are interested or your not "seem interestedasleep " not a nice way to start a relation or friendship "pretending" it just doesn't sound right to me.

I never pretend to be interested I always ask questions that I want to know the answer to. Btw these profile suggestions are moot I don't talk to people from this website as there are no females in my area on it. All the people I talk with I meet on facebook and my profile doesn't matter just the way I present myself when we talk. I always try and learn about her, but like I said when I get asked questions sometimes idk what to say. I know not to talk about exes and to be confident, but I don't know sometimes I seem to come off as more boring than other people my age. >_<

I have a good sense of humor, or so my friend just told me haha. I love laughing and joking around a lot and, I make a lot of joke posts on here too, but I am also serious when necessary.

Unless the girl doesn't like the "funny man" routine. I know it turns me off, but that's just me. I like serious guys, maybe clever ones once in a while, but that whole "i love to keep 'em laughing" guy, um, ew.
