sooo lately ive been wanting to be more than friends with alot of my guy friends, but i knowi dont really like them.
i just feel this way because i really want a bf.

TanDancer answered Monday December 15 2008, 6:36 pm: I don't think that you can just "get over" this. It sounds like you want to be wanted, which is natural. I understand liking friends just because you are friends. They ask other people out, then you just end up feeling lonely. In high school, I went on dates with several of my friends, but it generally didn't work out. You have to not take it personally. Some people are just meant to be friends, nothing else. I know it hurts to be rejected--even if the guy never even knew you liked him. The next time you like a guy, write down all of the pro's and con's of being in a relationship with him. If you find there are more con's, look around somewhere else. If you do end up dating a guy that you know is not right for you, you'll only up getting hurt worse, a hurt you could have prevented. However, if you genuinely like one of the guys, let him know! Nothing will happen the guy doesn't think he has a chance with you! Guys can be shy too. Try just a little extra eye contact with a smile, and see if he responds. I did not have a boyfriend until I was 16, so I understand where you are coming from. I know several girls that didn't have boyfriends until they were in college. Don't think that you are alone, and it's okay! Good luck! [ TanDancer's advice column | Ask TanDancer A Question ]

Not only are you hurting someone other than yourself, but you're also hurting a friend. Everyon wants to ahve that boyfriend-girlfriend bond and to feel needed, but you should only be with the person who you want to be with and who wants to be with you in the same way. If you want to get over this, then just let fate be fate and tell yourself that you're going to wait for the perfect guy, and you're not a freak, you just want to feel needed :] and who doesn't? haha [ itdependsonyoux3's advice column | Ask itdependsonyoux3 A Question ]
