You don't even bother with it. You're too young to date.

Dude! You eat dirt? Girls don't likke dirteaters!

Kiddo, you're too young to date. Why do you want a girlfriend? Girls are nothing but trouble. Enjoy being a kid. Before you know it you'll be married with a couple of kids, a mortgage, a job you hate, a receding hairline, and a beer belly. Enjoy being young, leave the dating for when you're older.

When I was 5 I had a major crush on my teacher... she was in her early 30's. The girls my age were too naïve and gossipy so I always ignored them.

What I did was nothing. After a while this big crush I had went away and I knew it wasn't meant to be. I still think of her, but in the kindest most sincere way. When I was 12 I had girls flocking my way. I felt confused. The reason is because I was dating a triplet but this was this younger girl in the 5th grade that I felt a strong connection for but I couldn't because I wanted to be faithful.

We flirted even though we wanted to be exclusive. Then, May comes, school is out and we never see each other again. My girlfriend the triplet goes to a different middle school then me so we end it like mature adults... wait for it... over the phone, lol! Sorry, I had to pull that one.

I mean, I couldn't drive so me being a kid how was I supposed to confront her? Look, little man, crushes come in go. It's the law of attraction. If you want to date this girl, don't. Just be friends with her. Why rush into things at such a young age? Focus on your schooling and if all goes well you guys will end up being together some day. Just not now or next year. You first have to learn the game and master the art of wooing women. It takes lots of practice and rejections but it's worth it.

Hope you had enough attention span to take my advice. I know I didn't at your age.

P.S. You might get slapped a couple times while mastering this art.

You first have to learn the game and master the art of wooing women.

Seriously? You are advising a 11 yr old about "wooing" women??

One of the major issues we have in this society is that children are being "forced" to grow up too quickly. Entertainment media among others are glorifying the romantic relationship so children are trying to emulate adult behaviors way before they are ready to do so.

An 11 yr old should not be interested in a relationship at this stage. Let him enjoy being a kid first.

Besides with, it is up to parents to decide when their children can start such relationships.

What would you do with a girlfriend? In name only?
Try to be an 11 year old boy, and forget about girls for now. This might be one of those things that your friends are doing, and you want to do it, too... have a girlfriend.
I am sure you have better things to do than trying to keep up with someone else, if that is the case. Be friends, and forget about girlfriends.

You will have many crushs my young friend, and best to talk to your dad or brother, as to how to handle yourself but at your age there is no dating, just just play dates, but making friends with girls, the same as you do the boys is all you can do.

At 11 you just be a boy at her school. She is too young for anything else and so are you. You two can be friends, that's about it.

[smoothy]

If she's staring at you... you need to chek for boogers hanging out of your nose.. or a piece of toilet paper out of your pants... or someone taped a sign on your back.

In any case... forget it... you have far more important things that need your attention now and in the coming years...

There will be plenty of time for girls when you get older... AFTER high school.

Until then they are going to cause you more problems than you can imagine... some of it their fault.. most of it your fault.

THere is nothing at all wrong with just being friends however... having friends is a good thing.
