i'm so alone.


Question Posted Sunday December 9 2007, 9:04 pm

I'm sixteen-female

I'm so lonely lately, I honestly dont know how to put myself out there, I dont know how to meet guys. I dont know what to do. There is a guy I like, but I dont know if he even likes me, we dont even know each other formally. I went into where he works, and we had a mini conversation that included a lot of smiles. But really I cant tell from that. I plan on going back to that store, just to see if I can talk to him, but I'll be "buying" something, so I can talk to him.

Anyways, the point is,
I dont know how to tell if a guy likes you,
I dont even know if that guy I like up there has a girlfriend. I'm sick of being by myself.

When I was 16 I definately felt the same way that you are feeling now.

Once I quit worrying about what others thought of me and focused on myself then I became a lot happier and that showed. Do something that boosts your confidence like go and buy a hot new outfit or new make-up. Once you realize that you are beautiful and that you can get any guy you want,then you will have guys all over you. Just wake up and say "today I'm going to talk to some guys and be confortable about it".

With the guy that you like, you definately have the right idea. Go back to the store and casually bump into him. Act confident and he will notice it. Guys love what the can't have. So act like you're not that interested in him but don't feel nervous to flirt a little and ask him a few questions.

P.S. If things don't work out with this guy...it's not the end of the world. Realize that you don't need to settle for anything less than your perfect guy. The guy that persues you is worth going after because he is really interested in you.

Surely, there must be some people in your school whom you feel comfortable talking too. If not, just sit at somebodies table and interact with the conversation which they're having, who knows, it could be on a subject which could interest you. As for your guy, do exactly the same with him, just a little bit more 'interactive' and what i mean by this is to find out some things about him and tell him somethings about you so you get to know each other better.
When you talk to people, you'll find that they won't bite off your head and laugh at you. They could welcome you to sit at the table and talk with them. That really is the best way to make friends.

Good luck with the future

It is hard to approach someone at a store or workplace. You don't want to go in and buy stuff day after day hoping to talk. If you want to talk to him just try somthing simple. I'll give you the best introduction i've heard and it's not a line. "hi i thought i would come in (come over) and talk to you. my name is.....". It's honest. He would know right away that you aren't there for strictly for shopping. Plus if he has any clue, he will feel special. What happens after you start talking who knows? But it allows you in the door that first time. You also wanted to know how a guy shows when he likes you. I have a link here that has a list of signs for you.

For now, don't worry if the guy has a girlfriend.
Just try to talk to him and make an impression. If he isn't single now, he may be down the road. If you get this guy to where he knows your first name and you know his, odds are every time you go in the two of you will speak. This will give plenty of chances for things to happen. I hope i was some help. Good luck and happy hunting.
