How to become funnier?

I found a nice girl. I'm a mess so it won't work with her. That's ok, it's always been like this. I don't show it but I know it'll never ever work.

How can I become funnier? People often say sad and depressing things to me thinking I like these kind of things but I don't. I know what fun is, I can understand jokes very fast. I can also write few of them on the PC.

I literally suck at being funny when I'm out there hanging out with people. I also have troubles smiling. My mouth goes up but it doesn't look like an actual smile. I stopped watching porn for her, I also started again to read. I'm not fat.

It's just that she isn't very funny at all, so I can't follow her, I have to go first, and this is my first time.
I really need help.

Uhm

If you're both not funny, doesn't that work out fine in the end?

Shit man you should relax. You are so nervous about being funny that you block yourselve. If u think about some funny stuff just leit it out.

I use to talk to my self in front of a mirror. So that i can "practicce" conversations. I amuse my self a little.

The only trick for beeing funny is trying. Make it natural, if you want to smile smile, if you want to laugh do it too. Natural people alwais fit , because we naturaly want to be with people that is like us. So relax man and it will be fine

Wit is something you're just born with, not a skill you can learn.

I could say "just be yourself" but that's too general.
Just do funny things physically. Sing along to songs, do it in a funny voice, or just badly. Say ridiculous things, for no reason. Say ridiculous lies and say "just kidding". Play little pranks on her. It's not all about the substance of what you say, someones just trying out new ideas even if you think it's dumb or not that funny. It can go a long way. It may even help build character.
Another tip is self-deprecation. Basically make fun of yourself. Make fun of the fact you're not funny. Be nice about it, but make fun of the fact she's not funny. Or that you're both not funny.
Find an inside joke between you two. Sometimes the best jokes are the ones only you two can appreciate.
Another good tip, which is kinda a side tip. Get some good sleep. The more rested you are, the more you have control over your expressions, and the sharper you will be in general.

Kinda, it's a predisposition thag you can also train. But if you seriously can't be funny you won't really be able to learn it.

It's not about being funny at all, m8. If a girl likes you, she will laugh no matter how corny you sound. Don't try to be funnier than you are, or you'll come off as a try-hard. Just blurt out any random shit you can think of and say it with confidence.

I usually can't think to anything when I'm out with her. I don't go panic because I never go panic. I think I'm too stressed and I stopped reading since 6 months

I used to be the funny guy to the point where I could just look at someone and they would crack up. It involved a ton of practice and upkeep, you have to be on top of everything because it's just as much if not more about the execution than the content. It's a performance art to an extent if you're not naturally funny. The thing that helped me the most though was watching comedians or funny actors in movies. It also helps a lot if you have a lot of common ground with other people, it's terrible trying to make something funny if the other person doesn't even know what you're talking about.
>>
It's hard to be funny because you have to be willing to make a joke that no one laughs at. But that's how you get better, by constantly making jokes.

But most importantly, figure or what works for you. What do you find funny? What kind of jokes/humor do you use that actually gets people to laugh?

And like another anon said, practice emulating your inspiration. It will really help you get started in developing your comedic chops.
>>
If you are not funny, is nothing you can do, tell a joke only will make worse.

I don't want to be rude, man, but judging you by what you wrote you sound autistic. And I don't mean it as that running 4chan insult, I seriously think you have autism. Go check if you haven't already.

I don't think, it's just too much 4chan
