how do i feel better about myself, i haven't had a boy-frien
Question Posted Tuesday November 7 2006, 12:43 am
i'm 14,live in NYC, never had a boy-freind of hooked up with a boy before.
Boys intimidate me but i want a bf cause i want someone who can understand me and hold me when im upset and love me, but that never seems like its ever gonna happan cause i get so nervous around them.
also every time i thik about hooking up with boys i start crying because i REALLY want to hook up with someone and every time i think about it a sense of despair comes over me and it feels like im NEVER gonna hook up with anyone
is it because i'm not likeable, or just not outgoing enough, what do boys find wrong with me.
ive read the answers to questions kinda like this one, on sites like this one and none of them ever help, they always make me feel worse instead of better.
dont tell me my first kiss is gonna come, just wait for it, cause it doesnt seem like thats ever going to happen to me.
advice on how to feel better about this and how to be less awkward around boys would be a great help.
thanks

Start trying to become more outgoing by randomly talking to people. That happend to me because at the shore me and my friend DIDNT care what people thought of us and we talked to EVERYONE there. It turned out that we actaully became friends with people from there. I guess you could first start by trying to get your self esstem up more, and try becoming more outgoing. Im SURE if you read in seventeen magazine or something like that, you might find some advice. Try going to www.seventeen.com and go to the top and there should be a thing that says as Jenna or someone a question. Ask her and she'll right back to you. I really dont know what else to say because this hasnt really happend to me before. Just try talking to a close friend about it, and try just being louder around guys- dont be nervouse because theres nothing to be nervouse about (just laugh alot ;) thats what i do - not freakishly tho)
I hope i helped<3 [ advice_expert101's advice column | Ask advice_expert101 A Question ]

Trust me I've tried . I'd say just try being as friendly with guys as you possibly can. Try to be more flirtaticious, not easy, but ya kno a little more attraction.
Make the guy feel like you are not attracted to them though you are that's what they want to see. I told my best friend who is 15 and it had worked for her.
*If you feel so nervous that you want to control your blushing around mr.right. Close your lips and push your teeth together as hard as you can, making anything hidden expression stay hidden.
I know this may be another make you feel worse question but girl this is the best i can do , aight
