Why don't guys like me?
I'm 18 and guys nor anyone seems to like me. I can't make friends, they always get away from me and I always lose them. I have a boring personality and think I'm ugly but I never tell people that. I just keep it to myself because I don't want to annoy anyone with my problems. I hate who I am and how dumb I am. I hate the fact that I have depression and anxiety every single day. I hate how I am still alive and haven't killed myself yet like I always plan on doing but never do.
I guess I just have hope which isn't good since I like a guy and think he likes me which makes my day but then find out he DOESN'T like me...happens all the time. I can't start a conversation nor keep a convo going. I kinda like this guy in my project group and I started staring at him, asking what is on his bracelet which he took it off and showed me then I asked if he was a senior which he said junior and I said stupidly "Wow you look older" he chuckled "Yeah I get that a lot".
As the class was almost over, we were just standing there, I asked how tall he was (he's tall lol) and he told me. I said that I was 5'3 and that I'm really short, how in 6th grade, I was taller than everyone which I was laughing. He laughed a lil and didn't really say anything. I always talk to guys and they either ignore me, give me a grossed out look or just get away. Guys never ask me out and none ever like me. They ask out other girls, never me

No please don't kill yourself, then you will have never have a chance to get a guy either. Now about the topic: Do you have any interests like sport or favorite music. Try to express them more and it makes meeting people much easier and gives yourself more personality and more interesting. If you like a guy smile don't stare at him since he might think that you have a negative opinion of him. Try to be open to meeting everyone. Being short is not such an issue at all, I personally am hardly attracted to tall girls so that's the opposite.
I'm 18 and have never held a girls hand before even though 99% of the people where I live say I am the most amazing guy they know and I regularly get 30 year old women who say I'm hot. For me it's fear of rejection though. So don't worry.

If he doesn't like you, he's not the one. Don't worry. Guys aren't the whole world. Your time will come, your life is far from over. You're 18. It's just beginning. Be confident in who you are. God doesn't make mistakes. Beauty, on the outside, is in the eye of the beholder.
Inner beauty is different. Don't waste your time with people who refuse to see your true self.
Just make sure you're an honorable person and be who you are. Who God created you to be.
If the rest of the world can't appreciate that, even though the critics may out number you, they are the dumb ones.
God will acknowledge that you will try to be a good person and yourself no matter what others say or do or think of you.
Say a prayer, sleep in peace, live like you never have before.

Maybe you are a late bloomer.... Not many guys were interested in me when I was 18 but as I matured men liked me a lot more. Still hit on me quite a bit and I'm in my 50's now, lol. My teenage daughter laughs because i have these 'old guys' after me (and I have a partner, doesn't stop them though).
With the conversation, using What and Where questions can be good starters.
And you seem to be good at taking the lead and starting the conversation, so maybe let the guy be the one to keep it going next time. Nothing wrong with a little bit of silence...

Don't get worried about yourself.Even I think that I'm ugly in my teenage years.Some girls will have that charming look in their 20s or 30s.So do not worry.It is okay if guys do not wanna date you in your teenage years.You still have time.Focus on your studies and carrier.Maybe you will find your prince charming when you enter your workplace.Teenage love is immatured and usually won't last long.But relationship in your 20s and 30s , which is at your working age is long lasting and you will be more matured in taking actions based on your relationship.Don't have that low self esteem and do not ever think that you're ugly.Every woman is beautiful in their own way.Maybe it takes a right guy to see it.Just be yourself and improve your traits and work on your future.Woman with the strong career is the most prettiest of all ! May god bless you!

First, you need to stop always putting yourself down/. Do something nice for yourself. A new hair do or a nice pair of nails.Something that will make you feel pretty. Do it for yourself, no one else. If you don't feel pretty, you won't look pretty. Appreciate who you are. If you were a female that was always sitting on their lap, then you would be more popular, but you don't have to be somebody you are not to like yourself. You put your lovely hair up in a nice style and be glad for who you are. Don't look at others wishing you were like her or her or them. No, you like you.So, if anyone do decide to befriend you,. they are seeing the real you.Not a fake person that's hiding. Write in your journal
all the things you know you are. The positives things. You have to like you or people will see that. I hope you can see where I'm coming from with this. Be well.

Don't kill yourself. There is far too much you have to live for. It may not feel like it right now, but trust me. I know exactly how you feel. I don't have any friends either. I deal with depression on and off and I deal with anxiety everyday. Please don't worry about the guys. There is so much more out there than just a boyfriend. Do you plan on going to college? You'll most likely make friends there. Do you want to play any sports, or have any other interests? Maybe art classes, acting classes, martial arts lessons, things like that? I've taken up ice skating lessons and I really enjoy doing that. I plan on signing up for acting classes next month as well. But believe me, don't worry about guys. It really isn't worth your time, especially since you're so young! Focus on what you want for your life and career right now. A guy will come along eventually :)

I went through the exact same feelings, depression and thoughts about suicide when things just got so bad, I didn't see a light at the end of the tunnel. I had no friends and never had a boyfriend, I was the quiet one who sat in the corner on my own thinking no-one will ever like me, I felt like I had no personality whatsoever. However, I have always had an interest in filming and movies, and went onto gumtree one day to look for anyone who needed help with projects in the creative writing section. I saw an ad on there from this guy who needed help with script ideas, and toyed with the thought of replying or not. I took the chance and we met up for a meeting on a sitcom idea he had.
We are now engaged to be married, after 5 years together!
I was 27 when I met him, he was my first and only boyfriend. I believe you will meet someone when the time is right. You may think you dont have the personality, I did too! But you do have a personality and its not a bad one believe me. Think about what interests you have, and search the internet for clubs. Im sure you will come out of your shell and find someone worth waiting for xx

You are getting a lot of answers telling you not to worry, and I second all that, you are probably also sick of hearing how young you still are and how there is plenty of "time" to find someone.
I have been in your shoes, worrying that I'd never meet someone, that I wasnt pretty enough or funny enough, that I'd be single forever and sometimes I still think that, but for me I decided that if I wasn't good enough for someone else then I would make myself good enough for me and with experience have learnt that only I can make me happy.
My recommendation to you is to try new things, join some clubs, any king that interests you or volunteer groups to meet new people and keep yourself occupied, volunteering can teach you new skills and be immensely rewarding and some volunteer training can even help develop into a career.
When you learn to like who you are people will see that confidence in you and you have no idea how much guys actually are attracted to that over anything else.

Don't talk like that about suicide. I had a friend who just did it... I am in so much pain over her choice. Please. You need to stop the negative self talk. Do positive self affirmations. Tell yourself you are beautiful, you could play coy. Give a flirty smile and say nothing... It just might be intriguing enough to get a guy to approach you. Girl, you need a make over... Something that starts on the inside and works it way outwards. Honey, here is the deal. You been saying all of these negative things about yourself and it shows. If you cannot like yourself, how in the hell can anyone else like you? Start believing in you, loving yourself a little more, get a way and spend time with you and really get to know yourself. Once you can love yourself, others can love you and you can even love others. Trust me, I know this!!

Firstly you have nothing to worry about.
These guys clearly are simply just not a match for you. Just because you find yourself attracted or interested in a person does not mean that they will all be interested in you. Some guys are just idiots I'm 24 and I know for a fact a few years ago I was an idiot.
Your still so young to be obsessing about this. Focus on yourself, set yourself up for the future and one day the right guy will pop up.
You have nothing to be sad about, you seem like a nice girl and I bet your beautiful, just being self conscious. and I know a little something about that being that I lost my hair at 19 lol.
