i am embarrassed... i'm from a small town so most of the guys i know are like brothers and the few -I MEAN FEW- that are left are the ones my parents sheltered me from my whole life (the bad influence they say... the immorals) anyway i moved to the city and i am 21... i know i am weired and my fam is weired... even though i am still kind of sheltered i am willing to venture into the world of dating -without them knowing. thing is how do i find a guy that is interested in me... i'm affraid i kind of give off a "sister" vibe which i can't seem to get rid of!!! helppp... i really like this guy who's a bit older and way more experienced i don't know what to do! i've been dressing up and all and i know i am grabbing people's attention but i can't seem to get him to act... i don't know how to talk with guys in that way... so for any advice please please give specific details....
i know i sound goofy naive and childish.... but i am desperate...
just be cool. go to parties and stuff and meet guys and have fun. relationships may seem all pretty and lovely and happy but really? in the depths? they suck. heartbreak all over the place. its fun for the first few months, and then you get bored. hence, heartbreak.
but yeah if you really really want one, go to one of those dating sites or google "dating tips and tricks" or something of the sort, and research it.

They say that great realtionships start off as great friendships. Get to know this guy and what he likes. You may have similar things that you like to do. Then you make that suggestion to do them. If it works out great. If the you feel the need to put yourseldf out there and tell him the truth then do so. If it works out great, if not even great because then you will realize that you don't have to put any more effort in that situation. You have your whole life to live so go out there and live it. Nobody should tell you how to live your life or even dictate your goals and dreams. The risks are worth the rewards. [ Manulo's advice column | Ask Manulo A Question ]
