I am 17. When I was in junior high I had some boyfriends and I really fell in love with one of them; however, everything ended tragically. Now I'm a senior in High School and I've not had a boyfriend. I don't think I can't get a guy because there have been some guys that have asked me out, but they just seem to be the worst out there. Even though they were not good looking, I thought they could be nice but they weren't. They were just jerks. Right now I really feel the need of having a boyfriend, my mother passed away last year, and I feel extremely lonely. I just want a guy to feel a little loved (yes I know it's sad). Some months ago I met a boy that I really liked (& I know he liked me), we were a most of the time together and I thought we'd be something else, but one day he told me that I was too good for anyone. I do not know what he meant, but that made me feel like if I was arrogant and no one would ever approach me. I don't think I'm too good because I don't feel like the prettiest girl out there (I don't feel any ugly either) but it just drives me nuts that I can't find a boy with a little bit of heart and brain, I don't really care how he looks because I usually don't like very handsome guys. Why do you think this happens to me??

Hi, anya101!

In your heart, even if you're guessing, what do you think might have caused that boy to say what he did, please?

Thanks!

I think you forget the past guys, and keep looking, and try for fun, instead of romance with corny labels.

Usually those looking to fill a hole in their soul, make that hole bigger, by trying too hard.

You have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find one that turns into a prince , so keep kissing them.

Lets be real for a second, you have been given many options so far, but haven't found the right one yet, so stop looking for the one great love, and have fun as you journey through life.

Its just a slight adjustment in attitude. One that will show you reasons to be happy with yourself, and not be looking for someone who makes you happy. That's almost impossible, and dangerous to your emotional health.

After reading your other posts, I really don't think a boyfriend is the solution to your problems. You've got your whole life ahead of you still and college plans to make. I'd worry less about the boys and more about enjoying your life. Find other things to enjoy, enjoy a girls night out, treat yourself to a pedicure, and maybe a few dates.

The right guy is out there somewhere... you just haven't met him yet.

Be patient and concentrate on you and just having fun for now.

I know how you feel. But you will find "the guy." Your young. You will have a lot of opportunities to meet that special guy. But of course you still have to learn you studies! :)

Perhaps you're trying too hard, and that will scare away boys quicker than anything, whilst you're waiting for the right one for you to come around you could spend this time working on yourself to make sure you're the best person you could possibily be for the right man when he comes along and he will, but whilst you appear to be needy and trying to find love, it won't come your way, lighten up, go out and enjoy your life, you're young make the most of it. You're only young once.
