hey

totally totally know where youre coming from. girls can be frustrating sometimes. but they also have their advantages.

to make more of your own guyfriends, it's actually pretty easy. try to look cute one day. cute shirt, do your hair neatly, and not TOO much make-up.

if you sit near a guy you wanna become better friends with, it's much easier. if you just got back a quiz or something, be like, "what'd you get?" but dont sound nosy. if he gives you a weird look cause youve never talked to him before, just try another guy. if he responds like, "Not so good, you?" then you've gotten one step closer to getting a good guyfriend :] the next few steps are big ones, but just ask him for his sn... if you have a friend near you, this is so much easier! to your friend, just be like, "omg youre never on aim!" and then just casually ask if he has a sn. great strategy. used it a few times. i know it seems awkward just randomly talking to a guy, but it's not random when you start. a lot of girls are like, "omg but idk what to say to guys!" just pretend like it's a girl. how would you start talking to her? don't treat guyfriends any differently than girls except for certain things like timing (how quickly you move onto the next step in the friendship- phone numbers, hanging out, sleepovers, etc.)

if youre not very self-confident or think youre that pretty, you gotta change your attitude. guys like girls that are confident and outgoing. so if youre shy, start out talking to the not-so-outgoing guys. they'll love that they have a girl they can talk to. but keep your space. you dont know how clingy they are, and if it will, in the long run, ruin your social status. by talking to the lower-class guys or same level as you, you gain confidence in yourself and start talking to more popular guys.

i really hope i helped, and this is just my opinion & how i get my own guyfriends. i talk to all the guys so you can take it from a girl that's not very popular AND outgoing yet shy at times.

If there's a guy you wanna become friends with, or more with, the best thing to do is just say hi. It seems so corny, and so unoriginal, but it's the truth. If you wanna talk to him, just say hi. And then strike up conversation from there. Find out what he likes, and what he doesn't like.

You need to hang out with them more often. That's how I got accepted into my group of guy friends. I hung out with one or two at first and through them i started hanging out with their other guy friends and after a bit i was friends with all of them. Just act the way you do around your normal guy friends. Meet more guys through the guy friends you have already and hang out with them. Suggest to your guy friends that they should hang out more with their other guy friends as well as yourself. While the first few meetings might be slightly awkward, it gets more comfortable as time passes. After you hang out with them long enough, they'll accept you into the group. There's no real 'way' to make more guy friends, it usually just happens after you hang out with guys long enough (:

ps. guys can have drama too. lots of it and just as bad as the kind girls have. trust me on that haha
