I'm goiing into 8th grade and have never had a b/f and i think i no y. In school and in my neighborhood i'm constantly playing sports. I've always loved to be involved with the diff. kinds of sports and wen i'm playing(which is A LOT of the time) i'm mostly playing wit guys. So i've been known as "one of the guys" wen i'm playing basebal nd stuff. Since i like never do any of that gurlie stuff no guys have crushes on me(or even like me as a girl). Are there any ways I can SHOW them that Sports aren't my life and get them to take me seriously?

One day you will find someone who has the same interests as you. If he asks you to change in any way you'll know he is wrong for you. Don't stop playing sports because unlike all those little girly girls, your doing something you love (i hope) and your not getting guys attention from the sidelines. And try not to allow yourself think your on of the guys. Those guys allow you to play with them because your good at something. Don't ever Change! [ .x.darling.x.'s advice column | Ask .x.darling.x.

XxXSwtBlondieXxX answered Sunday August 15 2004, 5:43 pm: Hey Hun! You have what almost every girl wants! You've accomplished a friendship with all of them! Maybe you should make the first move! Do what you want! If you feel like playing sports do it! When the time comes maybe in gym you'll meet a guy and impress him! You should do what you feel like doing! Maybe you could smile at one of the boys while your playing a game and ask him to teh mall or movies after a game. YOu could see a sports movie!

snowwalker69 answered Sunday August 15 2004, 5:21 pm: Maybe, when your not playing sports, but just planning on hanging out with the guys, tell them to meet you somewhere, and when you go out to meet them, wear a skirt, or a summer dress or something .... show them that you are a girl, and you want to be known as that. Also, guys like tomboys ... maybe your just going after the wrong type of guys. lol. I know cuz I was on an all boys baseball team myself [ snowwalker69's advice column | Ask snowwalker69 A Question ]
cailoisa answered Sunday August 15 2004, 4:26 pm: Just be yourself and keep doing the things that you enjoy, and eventually you will find a guy that likes you for what you do! I think that it is better for them to take you seriously playing sports than to think that you are something else. If they think that sports are your whole life, and their not, make a point of starting conversations about other things with guys. But if they want to talk about sports, then go ahead! Just don't try to change yourself for them, eventually there will be one that likes you for you. [ cailoisa's advice column | Ask cailoisa A Question ]
Jane answered Sunday August 15 2004, 4:26 pm: *What you're doing is perfectly fine, but to get their attention, put on some make up and wear a cute little skirt. Just buy girly clothes and fix yourself up. They WILL notice.* [ Jane's advice column | Ask Jane A Question ]
LiLdAnCeR06 answered Sunday August 15 2004, 4:06 pm: Don't worry I am a junior in high school and it took me till my freshman year to have a "boyfriend" and I'm a big sports person. Don't hold back at what your good at because you don't have a boyfriend. lol like me, you'll find a guy who likes you for you!!!
hi_im_belize answered Sunday August 15 2004, 4:03 pm: im thinking flirt a little! take your hair down after one of the games apply some make up and make them realize your feminine by having some of your girls pick you up and invite all the guys to come with and meet you at a movie.

ABull answered Sunday August 15 2004, 3:34 pm: I know this question has been answerd so many times but i would really like to help. just because you play sports does not mean that guys will not go out with you. and actually i think that it is GREAT that you are consdered one of the guys. i would love to be considered one of the guys. that way you are under their skin. and also, 8th grade; just becasue all the other girls have boy freinds doesnt mean that its right. your only in eight grade. and also, relationships are sometimes better when you start out as freinds!! i hope i could help!

TucanFullOfHoles answered Sunday August 15 2004, 2:41 pm: well, first off, guys don't take anything seriously, so good luck on that one.
jstlookn4mrright answered Sunday August 15 2004, 2:38 pm: Although you think its a bad thing to be one of the guys you probably have a lot of guy friends which could really help you in the long run. also if you feel you are too much considered one of the guys you should start doing some girlie things too. You shouldnt really change everything about yourself you should just improve some of the "guy like things" into some girlie things. like if you wear a lot of loose clothing find some clothes that are a little tighter. When at school you should wear more girlie clothes and colors.. like fitting hip hugger jeans, short skirts or skorts, v-cut tops and so on... you should also try to make your appearance better at school then at home. you should wear some make up such as mascara and eyeliner or something. you shouldnt have to feel bad about being one of the guys because especially if they are good looking it will help you in school cuz when they say hey other girls will prolly be jealous of you!! anyways i know how you feel cuz thats how i am at my house. i gotta go but hopefully my advice helped.

xobabiibrunette answered Sunday August 15 2004, 2:23 pm: ok, theres nothing wrong with being into sports and if the guys don't like you for who you are then they are not worth it, but if you are still feeling really badly about it then maybe you should talk to them and tell them that you are a real girl and you are interested in guys not just sports!
Hope i helped [ xobabiibrunette's advice column | Ask xobabiibrunette A Question ]
Laura answered Sunday August 15 2004, 2:20 pm: If they don't like what they see, I wouldn't waste my time on them. The right guy will see that sports are something you like to do, and he'll respect that. Hope that helped, sorry if it didn't.
GC_rox_my_sox answered Sunday August 15 2004, 2:17 pm: If these guys don't like you for who you are, then they arn't worth it. Don't try to change yourself to please someone else. I bet that some of the guys that you place sports with like you. I think you should ask one of them to go to the movies with you. Wear a little bit extra makeup and a skirt or dress. Then he will know that you have a girly side and a sporty side. [ GC_rox_my_sox's advice column | Ask GC_rox_my_sox A Question ]
