Well, they certainly aren't in my smaller classes!

Wow, as a long-time-single girl reading this, you are DEFINITELY looking in the wrong place. There are tons of us here.

Looking for a single Cal girl on LJ? Relationships that begin on the internet always end so well. Good luck with that.

I don't know — there are plenty of nice girls, single girls, cute girls, and even a number that intersect some or all of those; for me, anyway, the hard part is far and away finding a girl who will even go out and grab a coffee (when I do end up asking them out).

*Sigh*. But, in any case, its probably worth admitting that its not just an issue on the girls' end. Certainly can't hurt, anyway.

You're probably looking too hard... let meeting someone be a more natural process, and perhaps you won't weird them out. =)

I find this intriguing, since he could, pretty much, emulate a "natural" process by asking normal non-creepy questions that relate to the particular circumstance

I would love it if a guy asked me something interesting/quirky about what's going on around just, I get impressed just by someone that is alert.

But then again I just get impressed by guys that actually do end up talking to me rather than just stare at me nervously.

Meh, I gave up on "trying to" talk to guys.

Natural is definitely important. Any time a guy asks me to grab coffee, even if we were having a nice conversation, it seems really forced and awkward. You have to find something you have in common, then suggest you do that together. Like, if you're both going to take the GRE you could suggest you study together. Or if you both like running, set up a running time. Something that involves actually DOING something you both like, not just sitting around and drinking coffee and making small talk and imagining your many happy years together to come.

Seriously - how many girls have you asked out?

I find that the VAST majority of people who complain about not being able to find a date are the people who NEVER ASK anyone out.

There are some pretty desperate girls, too. Go to the math classes.

you could be like my roommate and not worry if the girl is single or not, just flirt your ass off, ignore all of your friends for her, and convince her to cheat on her bf with you...

VERY SIMPLE ANSWER

The really attractive women at Cal ARE ALREADY TAKEN.

So good luck finding a good single woman around here.

What do you mean by "good"? Perhaps the imprecision in your endeavors is the cause of your loneliness.
