Boyfriend/School EVERYTHING help/advice!!?
Ok, I just moved to a new town where I don't know anyone. I'm taking school online until next year. Next year I will be in 12th grade and graduate. I'm just scared I won't find anyone like a boyfriend = future husband. I don't really know what to do now. Yes, I am going to college but I'm very unsure about my future (family wise). Especially because I don't know anyone, and I have low self esteem. I'm not totally attractive (fat) al the guys i'm into are out of my league. I just need some advice on what to do, or anything. Please help. Thank you!

I've been there before, Im 30 but we moved to Australia when I was 16. and wow yr already stressing out about yr future. relaxs ok take deep breaths first and foremost you need to settle down to yr environment since its a new place. Find out stuff you can do to get busy..boyfriend=future husband can wait, it will happen when you least expect plus you have a long way to go.
a good way to improve your self esteem is to identify your good traits. say good things to yourself, repeat affirmations, acknowledge your good traits everyday.
find a way to accomplish something - a hobby, schoolwork, athletics, this will help improve your self-esteem. do your tasks well and treat people well and you will feel good about yourself. don’t worry so much about how you think about yourself. change what you do to make yourself more appreciated by the people around you
pay attention to the reality outside your skin girl. do more of what works. do less of what doesn’t get the response you want this will improve your self-esteem, and you will see your internal “sociometer” will rise your true abilities and where you stand with the people in your life.

Listen don't worry abut finding a future husband just yet. You are still in high school and any boyfriend you meet there would almost certainly not last forever. I read somewhere that only like 1% of highschool sweethearts make it last. College is going to be great. You will meet a ton of new people who know very few if anyone. Lots of people are going to be looking to make friends and its basically like a second chance to be the person you weren't in highschool. People are even a little more mature so its not as cliquey. My suggestion would be to have fun the first few years. Don't hold yourself down with a boyfriend. Go out and have a good time without having to worry about someone else. After a few years or so if you have grown quite fond of someone maybe then consider dating. You don't need to think anyone is out of your league. You will be suprised who might be into you. If you want to lose weight then eat healthy and excersise. Your tuition usually includes admission to workout facilities on campus. It really will be the time of you life. You will see. Even if you don't find that perfect someone in college you will meet countless new friends and inevitably you will meet someone down the road.

You know, you shouldn't worry about that. You're still very young. The right guy will come to you, don't go looking for him. Most of the time, if you're desperate and seek for boys, they end up being not the right match for you. Just be patient :)
About your self-esteem. Well, try talking to family, first of all. Talk to them about your feelings, and i'm sure they'll help you. Also, look at the mirror once awhile and admire yourself.
I hope i helped.

The only reason those guys are out of your league is because you think they are. You have to believe in yourself enough to realize that you can get any guy you want. It's just a matter of confidence.

Try be more confident and go out and even just talk to guys to build up confidence, dont worry about your weight you can go to gym and workout and start losing weight(dont be ashamed of going to the gym either everyone starts somewhere)

All i can say is that you focus on your own business and try to flirt a little here and there. If you don't get a guy college is always there.
