Ok, I had 2 friends over for the night once and we were have a blast. Once it got late we started talkin. One friend said that she wants a boyfriend and i sorta chuckled and ignored it cause i didnt want to be reminded of me not having one. Anyways my other friend chimes in sayin somethin i forgot what and i just ignore that. The friend who said she wanted a boyfriend again goes on talkin bout it so i put my headphones on and listen to music. When we got ready to go to bed i mentioned that my legs were shakin. They asked why and i told them no reason. They know when im bein evasive so they told me i could them em. Then i feel the tears coming. Yall see the subject of guys is a tender one for me cause almost all my friends have boyfriends and i think my friends are way prettier than me. When one of my friends mentions guys its like a trigger has been pulled and i know im gonna break down cryin and i usually do. That night it took 2 hours to console me and i still felt horrible. This has happened only once before and it seems to happen every couple of months. I cant seem to stop it and need advice. You see it makes me break down cryin when i hear them talk bout their boyfriends but i love hearin it cause its what i wish i had. I know to not get mixed up with guys cause im goin to 9th grade and hear it a lot and i dont wanna get mixed up in that. But still.... it hurts to not be liked like that by a guy. Any advice?

I know what you're talking about. I may not cry over that but we all have different reactions. althought this week has been real emotional for me. I would pray, Ask God to help you through this time, through Highschool, as you see other people dating. But God has a special plan for your life, and he made you just the way you are and you are beautiful in His eyes, no matter what anyone says or does, and they would be crazy not to see that. Most guys aren't mature, until at least after highschool. I know it is tough but keep listening to God.

Like Sweet Melody said, we all deal with this differently. I personally, would kind of seclude myself when my friends had their boyfriends around in college. I would watch a movie to get my mind off of not having a boyfriend or I would start writing. What helped a lot was reading the book [i] Dateability[/i] by Justin Lookadoo and Haley something, I don't remember her last name. But it helped me out a lot.

Hun, i know how it feels. i get like that every time i go on a school band trip. cuz one of my friends has a boyfriend, i don't. and waiting is a pain, but it's all the sweeter in the end cuz you HAVE waited.
