17 and never had a boyfriend?
I feel like **** because of it. It's really sad because all my friends either have boyfriends or have had them. I'm not a virgin but I've never had a guy actually like me or be into me. I feel like a huge loser and very lonely, especially because my friends just only talk about their boyfriends constantly. Even my mom has a bf. When it comes up that I haven't had one, people judge me for it. They say things like "YOU'VE NEVER HAD A BOYFRIEND????!!!" like it's the biggest crime in the world, and if I call them out on it then they try to play it off. I don't think I'm ugly. People say I'm pretty and that I look like a model (cause I'm tall & skinny). But I literally have no boobs and my *** isn't super great. How can I make myself attractive to guys? Just how do I seem hotter in terms of looks and personality? I get really depressed about being so alone especially because my friends make it seem like having a bf is the greatest thing in the world. Please don't tell me "it's okay to not have one, it's normal". I know that, but I really feel like at this time in my life, I need one. It's something I really want and I think I deserve a chance to be loved, or even liked, for once.

I'm in basically the same boat. Almost 18 and never been kissed. I get down in the dumps about it too. Think of it this way....how long are you probably gonna live? 80-something years, right? So what's the rush to have a boyfriend. Someday, probably within the next couple years, you'll meet this totally awesome, sweet guy that is into you. Until then, enjoy being you. Have fun with friends, keep up with school and extra-cirricular activities and all that good stuff.

Perfectly normal, You are awesome and you just need to give yourself more confidence. Try initiating the conversation with strangers like that is a cool watch where you get it. You will get a boyfriend, you just be careful your first boyfriend doesn't turn out to be a loser.

Normal. I'm 18, and have been single all my life! As for your appearance, there are exercises to tone different areas in your body. Confidence is also attractive to a guy, so be confident about yourself! :D Best of luck!

if no guy will go after you, you go after one! confidence is key. f*** all the people who make fun of you for never having one. when you get one (and you will) you'll be glad you waited (you'll save yourself heartache).
