I feel like I will be alone for the rest of my life. I have never had a boyfriend and I am 16. I have a hard time talking to guys because I am so self concious. Will things ever get better?

Oh I have excellent grades, I am a nerd, I think guys don't really like smart girls, but I am not going to get bad grades, I don't care what they think. About my grades that is.

Yes! You will be fine in life!
Do me this one favor and promise me this! You will NOT be taken in by any loser that says that you're special, cute, or whatever they say only to take advantage of you!!!
Stop being so self-consious! You're probably a lot prettier than you think!
Please remember that anything more than kissing should be talked about! Talk to a Trusted Adult before Any Dating!
Good luck! You'll be okay! Please be careful though!

Since you are only 16 you still have a life of many years ahead of you. First you need to establish why are you so self conscious and need to build your self esteem.Make a list of all the good things about you-bet you have plenty of good things. You must be kind and caring for you state animals rule. You have pets and animals only love those who have a kind spirit. Maybe you should join some clubs and if not sure join and then later decide if right for you-either can at school or church or both. If you don't have a church maybe find one near to where you live for its not just church on Sundays but most have a lot of social activities. You can also volunteer-animal shelters always need help,Check out hospitals-nursing homes-grade and middle schools often need help with homework,reading, and now English with so many foreign kids. No one will come walking in your door and sweep you off your feet-you need to find ways to get busy-you'd be surprised how helping others often puts a lot of joy into our spirit and who knows who you'll meet one day. Wish you a happy life.

If I had spent my teenage years worrying about something more important than boys, I would have been a much more productive young woman! Give yourself some time, I'm sure you're a sweet, intelligent young woman..........god you've got YEARS ahead of you! Don't feel like you'll be alone for the rest of your life! Enjoy the time you have to yourself....someday you'll have a job, a husband, a baby, and loads of housework! You'll look back and want to be 16 and single for just one day! Don't get down on yourself.....there is much more to life than pining over men.......... :)

ok i am 13 and i have had like lets see here.... to many boyfriends that i cant even name them all, well yes i can but thats not the point! ok well first stop being so self concious, just be yourself!
how about you be friends with the guy you like and then you ask him out after you have been friends with him for about 1/2 a week!
(you should tell him you like his shirt or somthing to become friends)
Good luck

You're worried about this at 16?!? Jeez, what are they teaching kids nowadays?
Relax, hun, you're not doomed to a life of solitude. Some people just take a bit longer to find the right one. I'm intelligent, not bad looking and one of the last of the true gentlemen, but I didn't get married until I was 35. At 16 you have nothing to worry about yet.

There is always hope and you are still very young. Enjoy being young, still discovering yourself and do good in school. Before you can be good at any relationship - even in just in friendship - you have to love oneself.
Life gets better as you age .. you even get a lot smarter day by day. Enjoy being a teen right now and don't worry about the boys.

16???? You have plenty of time. At this point,you should really be focusing on school and just having a good time with friends. Don't worry, when the time is right,way down the road,you will find someone special and just always be yourself.

Absolutely...look as great as you can, be be sweet and kind and hit the books! Forget about having boyfriends at your age and focus on your grades and what you think you want to do in life (and I am not referring to having a family...that will come anyway).
Good luck.
