This is wonderful. You do not have to change yourself to get other people to like you. A boy will come along that will love you for who you are, and your outgoingness. You are a true role model for younger girls! =] [ shopoholicgrl's advice column | Ask shopoholicgrl A Question ]

The only way you'll be messing up is if you hide who you really are and pretend to be something you're not.
Sweet girls have their place, of course, but if you're not timid and shy and sweet, don't pretend to be.
I always crack jokes (usually on someone or myself, but not meanspirited) and I have attitued and flair. My best friends are guys (I do have female friends though) and they seem to enjoy my humor.
There's a guy for you. Don't worry.
This may not be true of all "reserved and sweet" girls... but the one that I knew always got the guys was also a charmer. She could charm you into giving her the shirt off your back - in the middle of winter. I know guys fall for her... and fall hard on their butts. Charm makes people like you until they see who you really are.
tasuki answered Thursday December 29 2005, 2:30 pm: It's not wrong. You have to be true to yourself. Don't buy into the stereoptypes of how a girl is supposed to act. If you have to change yourself to get a guy, he's NOT a good guy. You need to find someone who accepts you for who you are. Some people are reserved, some people are outgoing, and some are in between. If you do make a change in your lifestyle, do it for YOU, not for some guy who might not even exist. As for this guy that you're in love with...TELL HIM. You have nothing to lose but a little pride. If you never tell him you will spend forever wondering what could have been, but if you tell him then it will all be over with and no matter what happens you can grow from it.
