Bodybuilding (Note: This is mostly directed to male members)
I'm writing this, because I know that many gamers have a small social circle and are outsiders. But this also is something for "normal" guys without a nice body.
This "guide" will help you at boosting your social value, not at becoming a professional bodybuilder.
I got into bodybuilding around the age of 13. Back then I just made the exercises at home, which helped me much, but wasn't that effective.
At that time I was more of a shy guy (not an outsider though).
At the age of 14 I joined a gym and started working out very hard (DON'T DO IT! That age is just too early for heavy exercises and my body would've been "destroyed" if I hadn't stopped doing them with so much weight).
Here are my experiences:
ATTRACTION FROM GIRLS
I'm around 1,85m now. When I hit 80kg at 5% body fat (Stage 1), I noticed girls were getting more interested in me and giving me so called "Indicators of interest" ( [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] ).
At already 86kg and 6% body fat (Stage 2) those "Indicators" were getting less and I guess if I continued gaining weight, they would've even start looking at me like I was some animal (ask women if they find professional bodybuilders attractive).
You probably can't imagine how those stages looked, so here are some comparisons:
So start striving for the looks of Brad Pitt in "Fight Club", because girls will want to show you off with a smile on their face and there is nothing better than this (Okay, maybe there is ) .
RESPECT FROM MEN
You get their respect immediately. As soon as you're seen most of them will respect you instantly simply because they don't want to **** with you.
Though some will dislike you and talk shit about you. I guess that's because they feel attacked, but those are not the guys you want to hang out with.
People in general will accept you faster and you will notice.
CONFIDENCE
After going through all that pain and discipline there is just one thing you feel: AWESOMENESS
You feel like being able to do everything, you feel dangerous, energetic and clean. You feel powerful. Not just physically, but also mentally.
Don't forget: Having muscles doesn't mean you can **** with anybody. Don't think you can fight with anybody smaller than you. Just avoid fights if they're not necessary.
HOW TO DO IT
Now that you've read all this, you sure wanna know what to do.
You don't need to get into the bodybuilding-world for that, but find a trainer, that looks like a bodybuilder and respect what he tells you. Someone that knows what how to do.
Secondly just don't do these things:
1: Overtrain and not resting enough (thing I did -.- )
2: Undertrain (You gotta have discipline and go to the gym at least 2-3 times a week)
3: Not know how to train (GET A TRAINER!)
4: Go to McDonalds after training (You gotta eat the right things and take supplements like protein-shakes. There are many guides out on the net about this)
5: Not getting better (Of course you gotta increase the weight you push with the time)
SUMMARY
Choose a qualified trainer and follow his instructions! You won't see your muscles growing after one training unit but don't give up.

skip all white bread, pasta and potatoes... if u need pasta then wholegrain pasta..
Chicken and other meat is good too for proteines... chicken and fish
I lost 18 kiloes in 1½ months by changing eating habbits and exercising for 6 hrs a week. 3x2 hrs. however my arms got 6 - 8 centimetres bigger as well..
all this is good, it is hard to change...
I have done shit to my body and i will continue to drink and snort like a pig as i have always done. I did use ephedra and caffeine for when i workout, something i have done for a long time. same as me using danabols (also called "Blue Hearts").
made my arms 6 cm's bigger in 10 days :P
CONCLUSION
Your HEALTH, WEALTH and RELATIONSHIP situation becomes better and obviously it changes the way you and others look at yourself.
I highly recommend bodybuilding. Look at it as a placement in your life.
If you got further questions, ask in this thread.

First off, you do not want to put harmful foods <mcdonalds> back into your body after you workout... You need to eat, but not fast food.
Secondly, if you want to get strong, look good, for a girl? Thats blasphemes, a girl should like you for WHO you are, not WHAT you are.
Third, I think you at least tried

Seems like I gotta explain some things...
First off, tell me where I wrote to go to McDonalds after training. You won't find it, because I wrote it under the statement "Secondly just don't do these things:"
Next thing.
Who are you? Such a complicated question but with a simple answer: You are what you convey.
Attraction is not a choice. Neither for you nor for anybody else.
Imagine the situation of you walking through a mall looking like were anorexic while a girl is watching you. She will try to avoid your presence.
If you look attracting she will be attracted, so your chances of having a good conversation with her are on a completely different level, so why not be on that level?
The thing you probably believe in is the sentence "Be yourself".
Forget that.
With having this in your mind you will never become anything.
The thing you need to be is Your possibly best self .
So start trying to change yourself to the perfect person mentally AND physically, because your body is you.
EDIT:
Another thing I noticed..

Nothing anybody on this world does is for anybody else than him/herself.
If I want to make girls being attracted to me I do it, because I wanna get laid, which is the penultimate purpose of life (after the ultimate purpose of life - Survival).
Quote of an intelligent person:
"While the primary purpose of your life is to survive, your secondary purpose is to replicate.
In humans, natural selection has favored a method of replication which allows for genetic variation. Just as a superior basketball player limited by lousy team-mates must escape and join a better team if he is to win, so too must a superior gene escape from its inferior gene-mates and be given a chance to join a better genetic team for its continued survival This method of escape is called crossbreeding.
Over successive generations, crossbreeding has allowed you — that is, your genes — to anticipate changes in a dynamic physical and social environment, thereby increasing your chances for survival.
Put simply, replication is a means of continued survival."
So getting laid is nothing different than following your instincts.
Conclusion in rather rough steps:
You work to become attracting ---> Girl is attracted (This is where you stopped thinking ) --->You get laid
And for complete noobs:
You work to become attracting ---> You get laid

Nice matador, wasn't that the name of one of the guys from that one pick up show? Also, a lot of it is more than just looks like you said in your Original Post, if you convey confidence in yourself, women will notice you more, walk with your head high.

I know m8, I know, as i said i dont want any users here to start using ephedra or danabols, like i did/do.
eating 3-4 Ephedra arsan 50mg's at one time will make me feel like on amphetamine.. and on rare occasions my heart skipped a beat, so yes dont use it guys.

I also watched that show, but I chose the name before knowing it^^
And it's right that BB boosts your confidence without exception, especially if you got a low self esteem.
