What is my problem with guys? Am I just scared?

Small towns are like that. I grew up in one and made good grades and had few, if any, dates. You sound like a smart young woman. Maybe you are destined for the bigger world. I ended up going to the prom with a good guy friend. He knew that friendships were more important than a hot date. We had a great time.

Give it time. I predict that when you move on to college - a bigger world - you will find plenty of young men you want to date. Hang in there babe.

No, this isn't a literature question but it is about life, as all good lit is!

i totally understand

my world is almost identical to yours except i'm a 15 yr old sophomore with a 3.8 GPA, anywho, i think that you should do what i'm doing to get a guy for homecoming.

although there are no hot & all around to-die-for guys at LHS, there are some funny/cute/nice ones that i'd like to go to the dnace with.

what you have to do first is diversify your circle. you sound like you want to go with a senior to prom, but most seniors are 18 & to them you seem like a kid, so aim a little lower in the grades, it's ok. you can invite a sophmore who is your age to prom.

if you don't lik the guys at your school, try other schools around your area. i get that you aren't looking for zac efron, but there has to be a cute guy who lives somewhere around you. shop around and aim for someone who is your age.

hope this helps

I read between the lines

"""I can't find the right one or if I do, he's my friend and I don't want to mess it up"""

I really really think you should print out this and show it to him and have a little chat

He May Be Just As Scared As You

seems to me that's how things usually are

ok...I really don't know how to answer this question and I'm sure I'll be no help...I would just like you to know that I am giving you a star just for mentioning Zac Efron lol I love the guy...<3

good luck though! =) one day you'll find someone. just be patient. sometimes the guy for you gets distracted somewhere down the road and he makes you wait. what can I say...sometimes guys can be flat-out air-headed (no offense guys, but you have to admit) but it will be worth it. ;) you'll find him...

Don't DO anything. If your main problem is that you "really want a boyfriend,"--sorry, but I really don't see that as a good motivation. A relationship based on that would likely be full of holes.

I really don't want to come accross as mean, and I hope that what I wrote helped.

a) Mess up your friend.

b) Next time someone asks you out, go. It's not like you're marrying the guy.

c) Lose the dreads.

i think you should try to open up a little more. become friends with more guys, it'll be easier to fall for them! but don't change for anyone! just be yourself and someone will come along!

Well, this really has nothing to do with books and authors.
