16 and no boyfriend?

    Well I am 55 and I too have no boy friend. SO do what I am doing just keep looking. Having friendships with guys can eventually lead into a relationship. Be patient about it. My granddaughter who is 18 also has guy friends, but no boy friend. Gee guess its a family trait. But she has her standards, and does not lower them just to be with the crowd, to have a boyfriend, as I did when I was younger and do till this day. It will come in time. There is an old saying " All Good Things come to those who Wait."

    Good luck, and who ever the guy will be to have you as a girlfriend will be one luck guy.

    i know how ya feel sister. I was in that same boat. honestly i didnt have a real relationship till now that began at 18. i dont know what to tell you. I was there too, i personally thought it was hard because everyone else seemed so much more expirenced in that department. so i didnt know what to do. I think what ive learned is to get the guy that isnt exactly noticing you is to be confident. Let them know you like them, your only gunna be in high school for so long so dont worry about embarressment. besides guys like girls that are outgoing. and secretly guys like to be asked out by girls because the pressure is always on them.plus i think they think its refreshing to be pursed by a lady rather then them doing the pursuing. so ask him if he wants to go to a movie, n you'll both pay for urselves. n go see a scary one so you can hide in his shoulder which will give him another confidence boost. if nothing works and he still isnt interested just move on. Look at it like this, its kinda corny but true. If he's looking for and apple and your an orange it doesnt matter if your the most beautifl perfect orange if he wants an apple. So find a guy who loves oranges hahah. Good luck!

    I'm also 16 and havn't had a boyfriend yet. The advice that i constantly get is: Just forget about looking, believe in yourself and it will happen when you least expect it.

    Don't worry - you still have a long time to go.

    Don't let peer pressure make you do something your not ready for. 16 is young for a relationship, I know you have to learn at some point, but I say wait until your older, and more able to handle a relationship. Enjoy being young, it doesn't last forever.

    i think u should wait 4 da right person don't worry too much about it there's much more 2 being a teenager than having a boyfriend

    if da guy u like is not interested in u might find some1 else more attractive

    Work on yourself. If you want to attract guys, you need to improve your looks somehow. I have to give it to you straight, you're probably not very attractive. I would consider getting a gym membership and work on shaping your body so men find you more attractive. It's proven to work.

    are you ugly or something? nah jk, sorry but it is a little bit weird. Maybe ask around with ur guy friends and find out if they know of anyone who likes you?!
