i feel low about putting this on the computer but i really have no where else to go and i hate feeling this way .
You shouldn’t want a boyfriend just because everyone else has had one.
Hi, the fact that your friends were surprised is not a bad thing, it is a good thing. They thought you had had a boyfriend, which would indicate to me that they think you are pretty, and a nice person.
As far asking a guy out, are you old enough to date yet, and if you are, are you ready to handle a relationship, or rejection if you ask the guy and he declines?

hey, these girls are surprised because you are a great person and to them it seems like any boy would want to go out with you. remember that you dont need to have a boyfriend to be happy or fit in. only have one if you feel comfortable doing so. if you feel you are ready, then begin establishing a relationship with this boy, talking with him, hanging out in groups, become friends. if you still like him when you are friends you have to be willing to take risks or nothing is ever gong to happen. You have to put yourself out there and if he doesnt like u the same way back, then there are plenty of other guys that will appreciate having someone like you as a girlfriend
hey carol .good point.
yeah i am turning 16 soon and i am aloud to date i jst never really flt like i had he time with hockey and school but im a good student and hockey is fine but i think lately things have been realy different and iwant to be in a relationship nw cause i think i am readyand i already know he likes me so it seem right .i think
Well then, give it a shot, lol, and let us know how it went. Carol
swirly51 thanks for the advice!:)
wht u guys said makes me feel better.
well i will talk to him tomorrow to see if he wants to hang out . thanks again guys i will keep u posted :)
I had a ton of friends who never had bf’s in high school. A lot of girls don’t have relationships until college. Don’t feel bad at all.
well its weird i didnt care for a while but latley i feel like i am missing out on something.Thanks steff !:)
and people keep telling me to ask this guy out but i really dont feel comfortable doing that so i dont know.I have heard from his friend that he likes me so if he does i will let him make the first move . cause i dont see ay poin in stressing about it even though that is what i am doing now.lol :) thanks guys
I never had a boyfriend in high school either…I didn’t have my first boyfriend until I was much older. I really did want a boyfriend in high school but looking back now (I’m 31 now)…I’m so glad I didn’t have one so young. I was still figuring out who I was and becoming me!
Please don’t ever feel pressured to do something that makes you uncomfortable or that you’re less than enthusiastic to do. Your time will come :)
yes your so right thanks steff!:)
i do think my sudden change of thought had to do with last nights hockey practice caus i was really uncomfortable with the conversation and it made me feel worse that they thought i had a boyfriend and then me having to say no just mad my stomach sink .
Yeah, it was kind of embarrassing to admit you’ve never had a boyfriend when everyone else around you has…but be proud of who you are.
yeah thanks . besides itseems like most of th time they r never happy a of a result of tehi relationships with guys. thansk so much i feel a lot betteeer :)
Anonymous #2 weeks, 2 days ago (2 days, 17 hours after post) I didn’t get my first kiss until I was 17. I always wondered what was the matter with me. I was afraid I’d never have someone to love. I didn’t think anyone would ever love me.
The boy who kissed me is now my boyfriend :) we didn’t start officially going out until I was 18. We’ve been going out for a year now, and he wants to marry me.
I was pretty desperate. Thank goodness I ended up with someone as wonderful as my boyfriend, but looking back on it, I wish I had just been content to not have a boyfriend. He pushed me into taking things too fast (not purposely, but it still happened), and I regret it.
I thought I was the only person in the world to have gotten their first kiss so late, to have never been in a relationship, but, now that I’m at college, most of my friends have never even been kissed. I have one friend who’s been in a few relationships, but the longest one lasted a month. I’m now officially the most experienced out of all of my friends :) it’s very strange.
So don’t worry, it’ll come with time. Please don’t force anything. You’ll regret it, trust me.
OK, this is TOTALLY EXTREME, but I didn’t get my first kiss until I was 31. You’ll beat that I’m sure!
thanks guys u mad eme feel better ! i have a question what should i do if this boy keeps hanging aroud me but doesnt say anything it is weird we used to talk alittle bit but now he just keeps acting different around me and i cant figure it out .now he talks to the 2 girls i work with in meida but wont say anything to me plus i keep lookin and finding him looking at me and i get really nervous idont think helikes m cause the way he is actign but i cant figure out why he is being this way
