Hi,
Is being able to get into a romantic or sexual 'relationship' with the opposite sex simply a case of having the appropriate social skills?
In other words, is 'social skills' an appropriate term for what is necessary for a person to get a girlfriend etc.?
Is there something more than just social skills that a person needs?
Blogg, haven't we already covered this? Or weren't we specific enough?

No. Not quite.
I would like to discuss this issue.
Surely I can get an answer as to what these skills are, at the very least?
Methinks you are going to grow up to be some sort of statistician, or analyst.
For GAAAAWWWD sake, just strike up a conversation with a girl that you like, make a date, get to know her over a period of time, spend all your money on her and wait in the rain for hours on end when she's running late. Then, one day, try being a bit naughty with her, get a slap round the face....or get lucky.
All teenagers do it! It's called "having fun!"

Actually, I'm thinking of becoming either a psychologist, or a sociologist.
(I'm qualified as a computer scientist at the moment)

When it's put that way, it does seem a bit like fun.
Hey Blogg. The LordE knows well. He's a charmer. How can you not like that guy and his passion for kitchen utensils?
I think you need to seperate: Your life and social studies! To get a girlfriend all you need to do is take some risks and reach out to another person in some meaningful exchange. It is not something to analyzed to death like when studying for pysch or sociology. You have to actually invest yourself in it rather than being in some ivory tower observing.
And it is a hellva lot more fun. And painful! Have fun.
You're wasting your energy flushd.
Blogg is like the guy who for years reads books about how to play the piano thinking that is how to become a pianist, but never actually touches the instrument.
Dont talk to the girl / woman like she is anything other then a good friend.
Respect her as you would a friend
gab with her as you would a freind
call her back as you would a friend
take her out as you would a friend
and stop thinking all the time " am i doing it right or wrong" and just do it.

Go away you bad boy..........mmmm, well, maybe just this once......

A functioning sexual organ.
The Tao of Steve:
1) Be desireless. "If you're out with this girl and even THINKING about getting laid, you're finished, cuz women can smell an agenda like **** on a shoe."
2) Be excellent. "You have to do something excellent in her presence, thus demonstrating your sexual worthiness."
3) Be missing. "The basic principle: We pursue that which retreats from us."
"Both men and women want to have sex. It's natural, except we're on different timetables. Women want to have sex, like, y'know, fifteen minutes after us, so alright, if you hold out for twenty she'll be chasing you for five."
