Have you seen the movie "Shallow Hal"?
I think that it's "ugly" that you judge so wrongly.

Having a hot boyfriend doesn't matter. If you are only dating guys for their looks, you could end up with an abusive, controlling boyfriend- and what is a hot boyfriend worth when he treats you like crap? Good looks should not be your main priority when you're looking for boyfriend material. If you are just dating for the heck of having a boyfriend, being popular, or nailing the best lookin', smokin' hot guy in the county, you shouldn't be dating.

I don't have a boyfriend because I need some one to always ask if I'm all right when I'm sad and really has the nerv to say "I love u" and to protect me from my ex's past. And stay with me until I die and good looking
NOT TO JUST HAVE A BOYFRIEND BUT SOME ONE TO LOVE ME FOR ME!

How can you meet new people when your 16 and not able to go to bars or any thing that you would see in a movie but really how can I find some one in my state that I could talk to?
ScottGem

Movies are not real life. At 16 you should be participating in school clubs, and other similar activities. That's how you meet guys.

To scottGem. I know but I'm really the invisable girl at my school and I really don't have a lot of time to do after school stuff but any others?
Why don't you have time to do after school stuff? How about getting a job. That might be helpful.

You have the same 24 hours in a day as any other girl in your school, it is how you use them.
You don't need someone to ask you if you are okay when you feel sad. This will get old very fast and that boy will take off running.

You need to seriously consider a few things:
1. You do not need a boyfriend.
2. You're 16. Learn more about yourself at this age, then how to get a boyfriend.
3. When you are so desperate to get a boyfriend, chances are, you will fall for the first guy that pays you some attention, and he will end up lousy, and you will get your heartbroken. Desperation is a trap. Get out of it!
4. Find out what love really is. Words may speak, but actions sing. Love is commitment, respect, trust, willingness to die for someone. Love is a choice, and love is a verb, feelings do not last. Love is not romantic feelings.
5. Be friends with guys. Friends before lovers, and you'll avoid getting into a relationship with someone you barely know.

Wondergirl

I like myself I just don't like talking about myself some times
That's not why I think that. Your original question says it plain and clear: 1) you need some one to always ask if you're all right when you're sad, 2) you need someone to tell you "I love you," 3) you need someone to protect you, 4) you need someone to stay with you until you die, 4) you want someone good-looking. That's a lot of neediness. Needy people don't like themselves and want the rest of the world to take care of them.
Apparently you've slopped through school and haven't taken any pride in learning the material you were taught.
It doesn't seem like you have learned social skills in how to get along with older people who are wiser than you are as well as people in person and online.

You just need to find a decent guy and slowly build up a relationship with him. Start by starting a conversation and finding out some stuff about him. Then you can progress onto flirting. If you notice he begins to like u then ask him out. Believe me he will be relieved he doesn't have to ask the question. Trust me I'm a guy.

You need to give yourself a break! I was always the shy quiet girl at school, it wasn't until I started college and started socialising with different people that I found my first love. I know it gets said all the time, but if you stop looking, it will find you. You are only 16 and have plenty of time for boyfriends, enjoy being you while you are single.
jaime90
Jan 4, 2010, 12:13 PM
It doesn't take a scientific formula to talk to guys. Just talk about everyday things. When you have guys as friends, most aren't tons different than you girlfriends. Once you get to know them better, the conversations will get more serious. In the meantime, don't worry about trying to get it exactly right- there isn't really a right way. Learn about who the guy is, find some similar interests you have and go from there. Once you find out that you both like one thing, or have had a similar experience, it will be easy to talk to him. Also, you could consider jumping into a conversation with guys instead of conjuring one up- this will take a lot of pressure off you to be half of the conversation.

So now I'm confused you obviously had a boyfriend before and you know HE wants to be with you (I agree with everyone though you should say no) but what do you need another boyfriend for and why are you saying no one wants you?

lovebird120
Jan 4, 2010, 09:37 PM
Yeah but what I'm asking is
1-why do you need a boyfriend if you just had one, take some time to get over him, because based on your last thread your not over this one.
And 2-dont say your this "ghost girl" or "invisible" because you had a boyfriend.
lovebird120
Jan 4, 2010, 09:43 PM
But you still got a boyfriend, so its not impossible and people do like you.
I think if your always quiet and trying to separate yourself from people boys will be more likely to NOT talk to you. You need to show everyone your there speak up participate in activities, I know you said you like to stay away from your school but then how will anyone know that you want to be a part of anything? And if your going to be out of high school soon then won't you get a job and go to college? Well make friends there and have fun there make LOTS of friends both boys and girls and make sure you participate in things because if you don't people may think you have other things to be doing or someone else your seeing and they won't ever have an opportunity to be able to talk to you or get to know you.
Wondergirl
Jan 4, 2010, 09:51 PM
I will go to collage I don't have to work really
Then stay away from boys this term and study hard to learn spelling and grammar and punctuation so you will be able to get into a college and add some punctuation to what you write.

Multiple threads merged. Please keep all questions regarding the same issue in the same thread.
You need to lower your expectations when you meet new people. You can't expect every new person that you meet to be a potential boyfriend.
When you meet new people, enjoy the conversations and enjoy the process of getting to know them better. Once you've gotten to know each other better, feelings can potentially develop and a relationship would naturally form. You don't need to force the issue.
Why would you date someone if you don't really like them? That doesn't seem fair to the other person.
Secondly, you don't let other people bring you down. If you're sure that's the type of person you want to be with, then be happy for yourself. If you're unhappy in a relationship, then don't drag out the relationship. Find someone else to be happy with.
However, the problem I see here is that you have the need to be in a relationship. You're only 16, what's wrong with being single? What's wrong with waiting until you find the right guy for you?
Wondergirl
Jan 5, 2010, 08:08 AM
