Hey,
This is a sorta (not) random question.. How can i meet cute,sweet guys? I am turning 17, I live in a tiny town, and there are not any decent guys living where I am, they are jerks. I am not ugly or anything, I am a very open minded, lovable, sweet, athletic, fun girl, and I am not afraid to be myself. I just have bad luck when it comes to meeting guys and must be doing something wrong. Whenever I go out places, all the nice guys seem to be taken... there are never any that seem interested,looking,or even giving me hints (that i know of). I know boyfriends arent everything, but it is something that would make my world a lot happier. I know there is a part of whoever is reading this thinking "boys can just be trouble", but I believe having a special someone in my life would do me a lot of good, since I have no one. My best friend dumped me for my brother (some friend) and I dont have any close friends in my life. I need someone *special* but how to find love/a guy is the problem. There must be decent,lovable guys out there.. I just wish they werent too many miles away :/ :p

"There must be decent,lovable guys out there.. I just wish they werent too many miles away :/"


Oh how I agree with you on that one...


Anyways, meeting guys can be tricky. You just need to talk to different guys. You need to give everybody a chance, even when they seem like they're "not your type". Judging guys and only giving cute guys or whatever the time of day will get you nowhere.


That being said, just start looking around when you're out. When you're at the mall, talk to the guy next to you in line. When you're at the movies, talk to the guy working the concession stand. You know what I mean? There ARE good guys out there, but you have to go through bad guys to get to them. haha :)


Good luck!

(Rating: 4) Yeah, I do give guys a chance.. its just the patience of finding someone right. I like what you said about "you have to go throught the bad guys to get to the good ones".. sad but true (:p) I know what you mean though. Thanks :)
