everyone else does it, so why cant i?
what is the key to getting a boyfriend, and staying with him?
some might say confidence, others may say loyalty, and other important traits such as that, but im wondering, what worked for you in the past? was it just chance that brought you together or did you work on attracting a certain person by displaying confidence or whatever.
im wondering this because i havent gone out with anyone since 2 years ago, guys just dont seem interested.
thanks!

I'd say the key to staying with someone for a long time is compromise and trust. You have to be willing to accomodate that person's interests until they (most likely) become your own on some level. You have to accept them for who they are, and not EVER try to change them. Trust is a pretty big part of a relationship, be it trusting them to go out with friends and no cheat, or something deeper, like trusting their feelings for you and their honesty.
I'd say just go with the flow. Flirt, and have fun. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there, and tell guys how you feel-- "if you don't jump, you'll never know if you can fly".
Hope I helped (:

I like this question. It made me think. and to be honest, I don't understand how I've been in what I would call long relationships, let alone attract members of the opposite sex!
What worked for others might not work for you.
All you need to do is basically be yourself and if you like someone, make an effort with them by talking, hanging out, getting to know one another... etc. Confidence will certainly help, but I feel communication is a must. Without it, things fail pretty fast.
Don't be afraid to let someone know you like them - and don't ever let rejection put you off. I'm sure everyone will get rejected at some point in their life, but it's just how it goes.
Just because you haven't been out with anyone for 2 years, it's not a big cause for concern. You could go out and meet someone tomorrow, or who knows, it might be another 2 years from now. You shouldn't rush things.
and as for staying with your man when you've got him... well, just don't do anything to hurt him..
Give this a read. It should help.

You're not "everyone else" so get off that train and walk your own path.
The key to getting a boyfriend is to stop looking for a man in your life and work on YOURSELF. Improve your own skills and work to gain new skills each year. Be honest with yourself and everyone around you. When you least expect it, you'll run into someone that just clicks for you and it'll be the same for them. If you're working on yourself, most likely they're going to be doing the same and that's a recipe for a great relationship.
That's how you get a boyfriend.
Now if you want to keep him, be completely honest with yourself and everyone around you and get a book called "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands". Do a search, you'll find it.
Chance meeting or displaying confidence? Let me just say that nearly every relationship I've watched end in disaster started with a pursuit.
Do something that will make you feel good about yourself and that you'll benefit from for a lifetime. Donate blood and when you do, find out what your blood type is. Go purchase or check out that book "Diet for your Type" and at the very least, cut out the foods on your 'Bad' list.
Above all, have fun and be honest.
-- Stay Honest
(p.s. don't date men you meet in bars. Get a dog and go to the dog park, join clubs that have activities you're interested in or get involved in a cause that has meaning for you.)

I would say that the key to getting a boyfriend is confidence. Don't be cocky, but don't act like you're afraid to talk to him. I have seen really average looking girls draw a crowd of guys just because they seem to be the life of the party. Be social, flirt, and guys will notice you.
That being said, the only girls I have ever had long relationships with I met by coincidence, but I have met a lot of girls at parties and things. They just never worked out.
Keeping a relationship is a little more difficult. The key to any relationship is communication. People are different, often times so different that they really just don't have a chance at working out. Sometimes though, you meet a person and you learn to accept their differences and admire them as a person. In this situation you have to be open about you're feelings. Just based on human nature, you can assume people will have conflicts. Only through communication can you make sure feelings will not be hurt and eventually ruin a relationship.
Good luck with the guy hunting.
