AgonyAnt answered Saturday December 3 2005, 7:03 pm: As a guy, I feel I can say with enough experience in such matters that guys aren't that great. We tend to be insensitive, inattentive, and often smell bad. You really ought to reconsider.
However, if you really feel that a boyfriend is right for you, the trick to getting to know a guy better is NOT to talk them to death. Males have short attention spans, which, after a time, must be stimulated with a highly amusing remark - 'amusing' meaning "rude, crude, and stupid"(and sometimes racist).
Long conversations with them can often be counter-productive, for both of you, as you may be offended by the drivel that the male mind can come up with when pressed for conversation-starters.
However, Males are easily ensnared by the faintest amount of attention granted to them by a female. Subtley - Very subtley - show the smallest amount of interest in a suitable(and available) guy, and you will find that he will be (subtley) easier to talk to, and will be more willing to open up to you.
If the guy in question is a loner, or doesn't speak much, be careful not to scare him away; loners tend to be afraid of direct contact with females. Handle them with care.

HectorJr answered Saturday December 3 2005, 6:51 pm: It's natural to feel that way, don't let it get to you. First off, nobody says that highschool = you have to have a boyfriend/girlfriend. So don't go around looking for one...because you might get hurt. I suggest just be friends with everyone, guys and girls. Really, if you get to know who's who and what kind of people they hang out with, you can find the kind of guys that you would want to have fun with and be with. From there, just develop a good friendship, without pushing for a relationship. If you find that you have feelings for someone, then sure of course let them know - and yeah chances are that they won't take it the wrong way, flip out, or hate you [despite popular belief]. And don't feel left out if all of your friends have a boyfriend...thats just one less person you can get hurt from. Hope that helped and good luck.
