Sheeeeeesh. I'm going to side with the level heads that have said just stay single and see what happens. If you're just looking to go out a time or two and shoot the bull, then take out the ex-nerd. Take out the pregnant friend as a friend, no romantic strings attached. Sounds like she's a friend of yours, you don't have to be anything more than that, and who knows she may really need friends right now.
Take the dog out to the creek or the lake and drown a few flies (or worms).
If a good thing comes along, or if a good thing developes with one of these girls then so be it. But like bf250, dumptech, JD717 and others said, there's nothing wrong with being single.
after all, it worked for Arthur Fonzerelli.

My .02 cents
1) Get to know her mother "the apple don't roll very far away from the tree"
2) Mary a girl with small hands

Women are like clothes, they need to be changed daily. And from the wisest man I have ever met, who I had more respect for anyone else in the world, my grandfather. "Women are like overpasses on the interstate, you miss one, there will be another right down the road, and if you get off on the wrong one, you can get right back on."

There is nothing wrong with being single...and, take it from a girl, the last thing that pregnant girl needs is some guy trying to seduce her. She got herself into a bad situation and needs to think about how she handles her relationships...she doesn't need to be jumping into another one. If you are her friend, you will understand that.

About the girl with the boyfriend - people dont change. If she leaves this guy for you, what makes you think she won't turn around and do it again? The one thing that men fail to understand is that hot doesn't necessarily mean good.

As for the nerdy girl, well, what is it exactly that makes her nerdy? And I doubt she is bad looking at all. If nerdy means she is smart and career-oriented, then I wish all people were nerds.

Hopefully you will not let your superficiality lead you into a situation you will regret.

Ranger just another thought -- I am 24-years-old and I have been single for more than 2 years. True, the lack of sex can really get to you...but I am in the happiest place I have ever been in. I do my thing, my career is skyrocketing, I have fun, and I don't have much to worry about. I know that when that perfect guy comes along it will shock the crap out of me, but its nothing ill be able to chose out of a lineup.

Your job is to get over that girl that broke your heart and figure out who you are, and maybe have some fun and make good friends in the process.

After careful consideration, I've decided that I could step in a puddle of this thread and not get my feet wet.

Ha ha ha... you guys are funny!

Here's some change from me, I'm a girl. And yeah, I'd call it my $0.02 but I'm expensive! This is worth at least a beer. Plus deposit.

You need to keep yourself away from all of these girls right now because for you to "consider" them like you are just goes to show that you want a relationship for the wrong reasons. You sound a bit emotional, and that's understandable given the break-up you just had. Ride it out solo, my friend. What you need right now is a goal... start lifting or something so that you have a chance to get your frustrations out every day and proof that you are something without the ex. If you let yourself compare your life now to your life with her, you're always going to see just the brighter side. The sad-but-true side is that she doesn't want to be with you anymore and you deserve to be wanted! I started working out more after I broke it off with my ex and I've since lost weight and I look SO MUCH BETTER than I did when I was with him! To top it all off, he's around school again and he looks like crap! I look put together, he looks like Chewbacca. I know it's bad to be happy about that, but I guess I'm proud of myself for taking care of myself even when I was so depressed about losing that relationship.

Now, about your "options". Geez, I feel like I'm discussing a menu! Anyway, you need to stay AWAY from the pregnant chick. You are not the father, but the father should be around. Maybe he is and she's just exaggerating his absence. The kid will need a father, not a whole bunch of stand-ins. If you are there from diapers to first steps and then she decides she wants someone else, that's going to mess up you AND the kid. She needs to do what's right and not what feels right, and since she's hormonal right now pickles and ice cream feel right sometimes. DO NOT be her flavor of the week! It'll make you feel worse! Why would you want to be around during pregnancy anyway... watch a sitcom... pregnancy drives you nuts!

The girl with the boyfriend... do I even have to say it? You want to prove that you can still hack it, right? Getting a girl who's taken away from her guy may seem like a neat conquest, but I'd beat the crap out of you myself if you did it! You don't want her, you want to feel better. If she wanted to be with you and not him, she'd have broken up with him already. Girls are mean like that... don't pretend you don't know it!

The "nerdy" girl... high school is over for you, I presume? If so, why do you let immature social codes brand people for life? Please... are "the popular kids" going to make fun of you if they see you with her? Would it matter? I still think you should cool it and be single for a while, but I think that if you wanted to try a relationship in the future your best chance would be with her, provided that you still think she's attractive in a few months.

That said, I'll address the "women are crazy" comments... Yes. We are all mentally unstable. But you know what? So are you! You men just refuse to admit it! My boyfriend is ALWAYS buying car parts and stuff, but he doesn't consider that shopping. When I go out shopping I get the "you girls and your shopping" thing, even if I don't buy anything! I'm going to be the one with car parts all over my room this summer (the Ranger needs some work) and you can bet he still sees me with the parts catalogs and gives me the "women and shopping" crap. Men rationalize their insanity ALL THE TIME. That's the logical vs. emotional thinking for you. It has nothing to do with intelligence, but it explains why the ones who "never shop" usually have garages full of stuff and why we generally have closets full of clothes with "nothing to wear".
