Was I going through a phase or was i just crazy???

Question

up until i was around 12 or 13 yrs old, I didnt care for boys -I mean, I've always been straight- but I just didnt care to have boyfriends like some other girls did. in eighth grade, I got so oppsessed with getting a boyfriend it was ridiculous! I liked almost every boy I knew was available (although i never got them). Sophmore year of h.s, i slowed down with that, and now (a Junior) I hardly think about it. I still want a boyfriend, but not as much as before. was I going through some kind of phase? was it me? or do all girls go through that?

Answer 1

I went through the same thing through my whole teenage years so don't feel bad. This is normal.I dated but it never lasted more than a month. I wanted a boyfriend in the worst way and wanted to be like everyone else. This passes once you find the right one for you. I was 21 when I finally met my husband. Don't sweat the small stuff...

Answer 2

Yep, that was a phase. In my experience as a teacher I found that it was in middle school that kids lost their minds. Fortunately, they found parts of them again in high school.

The good news is, that initial rush of puberty hormones is over and done with. You'll never have to do that again, thank whatever god(s) you worship.

The bad news is, puberty isn't the only event that can cause a hormone rush. Pregnancy will do it, and so will menopause. The effects may not be the same as before, but they will likely be just as severe. A lot of women lose interest in sex during pregnancy, but others are at their horniest when they've been carrying for 4-6 months. And it can be different with every baby. Menopause also usually nukes a woman's sex drive, but some go nuts (not having to worry about birth control anymore can have that effect). So you have at least one more phase to go through. I hope that knowing that it's temporary will make it easier to deal with.

Answer 3

i have were given lengthy gone through some demanding emotional ranges for no reason. I had one in eighth grade, and that i have were given had one now for more effective or a lot less 6 months. I also went via a piece the position i replaced into prepared about American Pickers, yet another one with TLC, and a piece the position i replaced into prepared about Muse (I although kinda am, yet not as a lot as i became).

Answer 4

Raging hormones. This is why the world rocks; why everything is different everyday. I think it's a good thing bcuz it inspires change and fun on all levels, like a wave that ripples through society.
I say ride it and relish the unexpected.

Answer 5

It's normal for you. The right guy will come along. Stick to studies. You're better off. I feel there is to much stress on having a boyfriend. When he comes around you'll know it.

Answer 6

walked thru the whole of hi skool completely obliviously to boyz! but I think I waz da exception, never had any libido/sex drive during my teens and even my early 20's (waz I a freak of nature... dont know really) its only now in my late 20's & early 30's that I'm completely obsessed with men!!!! so be flirty, have lots of boyfriends while you are young, sew your wild oats so when you fall in love you'll know its real & it should last ...

Answer 7

lol im kinda like that... like before i was obsessed with finding a bf but now i just dont care at all whether i have one or not... the funny part is i never had one when i wanted one but i got one when i didnt care lol.

Answer 8

You were going through a phase. Some get it harder than others.

Answer 9

No. I know what you mean. I think your hormones just took a while to kick in, hit overdrive, and have now kind of relaxed.

Answer 10
