So if u could plz help me in any way, i would appreiciate it very much! thanks
And if you want a boyfriend, don't get desperate and go out with the first decent guy you find. That's a dumb thing to do, actually. Wait and find somebody who likes you for who you are. Wait to find somebody who you like and want to be with. Just wait, you're only 16! You have your entire life ahead of you, and plenty of time for boyfriends.

The advice that I can give to you is to stop looking for a boyfriend. Sometimes, great things happen when you least expect them. This summer, forget boys and just have fun. You'll find that special someone eventually.
Seriously, you have the whole summer ahead of you. That's a summer full of freedom. There's bound to be someone out there. Just love yourself and you'll find someone to love you.
And you really don't absolutely need a boyfriend to make yourself feel better and escape from your family. You have your friends, which last a lot longer than any boyfriend ever would. Trust me on that.
But, I totally understand where you are coming from. Like I said before, everybody wants somebody there who loves them for who they are and treats them right. I want that too, but I just don't plan on looking too hard this summer. I think that most times it's so much better when you're pleasantly surprised by good fortune.
Have a nice summer! [ xlovexx463's advice column | Ask xlovexx463 A Question ]
venom_97 answered Monday June 23 2008, 1:07 pm: I have edited this answer in response to your feedback, in which I am appreciative for. I took everything you said in your question and looked at your feedback and I understand what you are concerned about more now.
I understand what it is to be lonely or to want that first kiss, and dance, and closeness that some relationships provide. I am hoping that you get out of that shyness so that you can get out there and mingle so that you meet someone who interests you. Try finding a friendship first and take it from there. Do you have any male friends that you are cool with now? If so and you have interest in them, since you already know them, why not ask them to go out with you sometimes and build it from there. If you don't wanna wait, then don't wait darling, get out there and go places. Invite someone to hang out with you, as friend and take it from there. Good Luck and be careful because some times relationships hurt. I wish you the best of luck of finding that special someone, he's out there somewhere looking for you too! I am also sorry for misunderstanding your first question. I only went on the things that you indicated. Again, best of luck to you.
OK. Here we go Miss Lady:
You start out with Lately everything has been so different. - What's different lately? difference in your thoughts, difference in your family atmospehere? difference in you personally? difference in guys and your views of them? Difference in negative or positive things in your life period?
You want a relationship with someone- I get this.
So,what are you doing to meet people who you would be interested in getting to know before this first kiss. (Did you catch me on that?) It is important to get to know someone first, so that it does go right since it hasn't been going right. Ok?
This is going back my questions to you in the beginning: If you want a boyfriend because there is someone you are interested in getting to know, cool. But if you only want a boyfriend to feel better about yourself, I am concerned. Also, if you also want a boyfriend to escape your crazy family, I am concerned more. Why? Because, you must learn to feel better about yourself on your own. Try reading some books, or sites focusing on words like learning to love myself, feeling good about myself, motivating myself, encouraging self esteem. Before you can feel good about anyone else, or love anyone else,you must start with self first. IF YOU DON'T feel good about yourself, you will not feel good about anyone else, and maybe this is why your relationships or everytime you like someone doesn't work out.
Next: It isn't fair to put a guy in a situation to hold him accountable and responsible for your escaping your crazy family as you have called them. Also, it isn't a guys responsibility to make you feel good about yourself. To place this responsibility on someone other than yourself,is very selfish. I know you don't mean to be and I know how you are feeling too, but there has to be some self work first OK? You have to care about yourself before you can care about anyone else and is it fair not to care about anyone else fully but expect them to care about you fully?
Now,why not first talk to your crazy family to release what's going on inside of you to cause you to feel less about yourself, requiring the need to feel better about self? The first step is to address anything that's hurting you, bothering you or causing self issues so that you can let it go once you have addressed it.
