I am new to the world of online dating. Been searching a few sites for a while now without being interested in anyone until I see my the spitting image of my perfect dream girl (at least based on a profile). She just ticks every box I am looking for plus more. I nervously messaged her but no response after a few days. I can't stop thinking about her and no one else on any of the sites remotely compares so i am not interested. What should I do or how long do I wait to send a second message if do so at all?
DONT FALL IN LOVE WITH A GIRL YOUVE NEVER MET
Online dating is often a numbers game man, sorry to break it to you but she's probs got 100's of guys messaging her and your not the only one being ignored
You'll probably need to lower your standards or meet a girl in real.

Thanks for the advice. I completely understand that on a rational level but it's not so easy to do ahaha. I was hoping letting it out would help that.

Check 100000 girls online, message 10000, get 1000 replies get good with 100 of them, fuck 10 of them and get one of them to be your girlfriend. This technique is known as "fishing with a large net". It works really well even if you have high standards. If you don't get replies you need to git gud at your profile and at messages. You will, eventually.
Adv, should I get a buzz cut for the summer?? What are the pros and cons of a buzz? How do you feel about buzzcuts? Can a person with a 5 finger forehead get buzzed?? Pic unrelated

I'm gonna shave my head after this semester of college. I hate dealing with my hair. Go for it OP. Try something new.
I'm 23 and made a C average in high school. Is it possible for me to take some kind of admission test to get into a good collage. I did bounce in and out of foster care in high school so that kind of fucked my grades.
no, and you wouldn't pass such a test anyways. what there is an essay or two and going to the admissions office to talk to them.

Look into a transfer degree from an acceptable community college. If you get a 2 year degree from a 2 year school and then transfer into university, they won't even look at your high school grades. Just be sure you do well at the 2 year school.
Community College and regionally accredited online universities are both options, and you can transfer from either one.
Ok, so a girl told me in no uncertain terms she liked me last Tuesday night. Things were kind of awkward (we're both very shy) and she got worried, telling me "you can forget I said anything if you want - maybe it would be too awkward" and I got worried she was going to flake, so I told her we can just take things one step at a time and try to get to know each-other better.
The next day she acts like nothing happened between us in public, no looks or anything, but one-on-one she obviously enjoys my company. I try to offer to spend time with her helping with her homework/maybe watch TV but she's really busy that day.
That night, we have a deep conversation via text (she's only really comfortable texting at the moment I think) and we're basically "going out", according to her.

I unfortunately have to leave the following day for work-related reasons. We talk a bit that morning/about the weather etc, she's super busy with her studies (we have finals coming up) and so we part ways. Again, in public it's like nothing happened, although she did give me a look and a smile at one point.
Next day, I'm busy all day working, but I text her at like 8pm to ask her about some band she told me about the other day. She texts the next morning (i.e. this morning), a one-line answer...

Just offer to hang out with her, but you need to find out where to do it and what you are going to do based on what she likes.
The texting is your friend for now. Use it.

Ok, things are kind of complicated by the fact that our college is in a very rural and isolated area and there's nothing to do in the immediate vicinity, apart from hang out in the dorm common room - hence my suggestion of TV or something. The weather is also going to be terrible Monday and Tuesday.
I don't have a car yet unfortunately, but I'm planning on sorting that issue very soon. She, on the other hand, does have a car. It feels a bit shitty asking her to drive us but I could pay for...

That was a terrifyingly strange and dysfunctional story. You're both weirdos and I don't know what else to say.
Anybody upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10? I have Windows 7 and I have the free upgrade to Windows 10. I have tried Windows 8 before and hated it.
Is it worth it?
No. Stay on 7.
Definitely keep 7. It's the pinnacle of Windows performance and style, in my opinion.
Don't upgrade from 7 straight to 10 unless you want a fresh reinstall. There are so many glitches and problems from going from 7 to 10.
