ok, so im 14 and i really want a boyfriend but im not sure if im ready. i feel totally ready but then when i see guys in person and talk to them, i can't imagine kissing them because i feel nervous and sort of not ready. it's like an easier said than done thing, you know? so, am i ready or what's up with me?
Additional info, added Saturday June 19 2010, 2:44 am: there is no specific person, im just sayin lol. the question wasnt suposed to be focused on the kissing part just the boyfriend part :).

You could hang out with guys get to know them and have fun! When you find someone you like and get comfortable with them, then you might feel ready to kiss someone. Don't push yourself to do anything you aren't sure about yet. I know there is a lot of pressure as a 14 yr old to start dating and getting physical but it really is o.k. not to.
Basically take your time, have fun, and find someone you trust and like before you worry about kissing. The time will come soon enough.
Erinn_the_bamf answered Saturday June 19 2010, 11:16 pm: Being nervous is completely natural. When talking to a guy thousands of questions are running through your mind: does he like me? does he think I'm cute? You're probably also concerned about rejection, which is normal. No one wants to hear that they aren't what another person is looking for.
Don't stress about it. When you find a guy you really like, you'll still be nervous, but the possibility of being him will make you face your fear.

kiran answered Saturday June 19 2010, 2:17 am: You are always gonna be nervous so don't worry about that. If you both like each other then you should try it out if you want. Tell him you want to take it slow and then your first kiss will come naturally and you will be ready. Good luck! [ kiran's advice column | Ask kiran A Question ]
Teen2TeenHelp answered Saturday June 19 2010, 1:25 am: hey, i feel your pain, except ima lil older.
these types of situations are like, you never know until you try. i mean, with me, i had the guy and i wanted to do so much but when it came to actually doing it, ny nerves took over and it didn't really make the experience enjoyable. i think you need reassurance that you're ready. if theres a guy u have in mind that you like, why not try it out.
make sure you both have mutual feelings [ Teen2TeenHelp's advice column | Ask Teen2TeenHelp A Question ]
