You said it. You are 12. I wasn't allowed to date until I was 16. You are still young and you have plenty of time. Focus on your studies and your friends. You will have plenty of time for boys later. As you get older, you will mature and you will get a sense of who you really are and who you are looking for in a mate and you will be able to weed out the jerks and the ones that are not right for you. You can start up conversations with guys for now. Just become their friends and see what you have in common. Get a heads up on others by being able to converse with them. Don't let anyone force you to do anything you are not ready to do.

Hey- I'm 11. Well, My sister knows this kid named Doug. He's in seventh grade. He asked her out and she said no because if they ever broke up, they wouldn't still be friends. So, he's in 7th grade and I'm in 6th grade and today I found out Doug liked me. I don't know what to say because I don't want Doug to be dating me and then my sister to get mad at me. So, right now I'm single and I know the feeling. A lot of my girls have boyfriends already and I've already had two. Let me just tell you, you're lucky because the two of mine I've had ended up to be jerks. I couldn't even believe the outcome because to my second boyfriend, we don't even talk to eachother anymore. Just be yourself though because if a guy likes you as someone else as in changing your whole style, everything adn you start dating, you'll probably start being yourself again and then he's gonna not like you. Just be you! I'm lonely too but I'm glad I have many friends just being there for me.
FYI: Don't take this offensively if you don't believe in the God of the Bible or anything but God has a plan for everyone.
Good Luck!

i know that it seems like all the other girls have boyfriends and you don't but i bet a lot of them don't either. after all your only 12 and that is a little young to be even worrying about dating. it may be a few years yet before you are asked out on a date but pretty soon you will think back on this question and wonder why you ever asked it.

I would not want that pressure-hopefully you have one good friend that does not have a bf or hang out w one all the time- I would get into doing the school work, activities and clubs- I don't know where they get the extra time to have a bf= youwon't miss the heartache and the breakups- your day will come- in the mean time enjoy being single-D

Try hanging out with your friends in groups (mixed-sex) groups. That's a good way to make friends and enjoy male company without inflicting unnecessary drama on yourself. Boys that age are too immature to appreciate girls of quality anyway (generally).
Read books, try to acquire new talents, join a dance team - all this will make you a strong, versatile, interesting, and self-confident woman one day. (And not that far-off!)
Then you'll have all the guys lining up!

Guaranteed not "all the other girls" have boyfriends. Find a girlfriend who is not interested in boys yet and have a good time with her. !2 is stlll young enough that you should be doings things to improve yourself. Then in a few years you will have so many potential boyfriends, it will become a nuisance.

It's ok! I know how you feel! You don't need a boyfriend to make you special! You would break up sometime and be sad and mad so there's no real benefit trust me guys are sooooooo dumb. But if you really want a boyfriend, ask someone. I do it ALL THE TIME and sometimes they say yes and sometimes they say no.

wait until your fifteen and don't be in such a hurry to grow up. Being an adult isn't that much fun. When you decide to date you have to making adult decisions. slow down and enjoy the best years of your life. your friends with boyfriends will drop their grade point average,drink do drugs,drop out of school and end up with more kids than they can raise alone. Ask your mom and dad they will tell you the Truth. please don't be in a hurry. it goes by to fast

Friends are hard to find, but real friends should be cherrished. You are only 12 yrs old, don't worry about boys. Freinds are more valuable. And when making friends it does not matter whether they are boys or girls. Be happy and make friends

Go do your homework and join a sports team or civic organization like the Girl Scouts.
