I'm in a similar situation, Strange. I can list a few things about me that might take away from my general attractiveness, but tonight I'm joining a group of people to help me out with that by going to the gym regularly. I'm a pretty scrawny guy and have been for quite some time.

Putting the best "package" out there you can without changing your personality is a great way (only a theory of mine*) to get the girls. You said you were a little overweight, so maybe try shedding some pounds in a constructive environment with some real friends that recognize that you're trying to better yourself. Any motivation that includes, "Are you too much of a wimp, fatty!?" is not postitive at all.

*I say only a theory of mine because either I'm blind and can't pick up on signals from girls or there are none to begin with. I've read those 'guides' to try and see what's going on around me, but so far nothing. Though I catch myself... That's not entirely true. I am happy to say that things might be turning around for me and I don't think I've changed much about myself at all.

Though I do notice I keep quiet less. This probably has much to do with the fact that, while nerdy and unbecoming, I've been playing pen'n'paper RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons. This taught me to act like other people and fill others shoes. It showed me that not caring what others think of you (you really do end up acting like an ass sometimes), really helps. I think that confidence stems from apathy, but saying that may be dangerous. How about I'll just stick to, "everyone finds it differently?"
