Jennifer, who ever said that I wouldnt be happy with getting pregnant. I never said I wouldnt be. I would love a girl, just want a boy first, thats all, and if it doesnt happen that way then yes thats what someone wanted for me. I know nothing is 100% just want to know what might be possible.

Try the Shettles Method--it has about a 90% success rate " Shettles recommends that you have sex as early as 24 hours before ovulation to no more than 12 hours past ovulation in order to increase your chances of conceiving a boy. " Just google shettles method and you will get tons of info.

have sex AFTER you ovulate. The male sperm tends to be "faster"
So theoretically, if you want a boy, make sure the egg is in place before the sperm comes so when the "boys" get there, there is a better chance of one of them fertilizing the egg.
It's just something I've read. No clue if it is true.
And I always went by the idea that God will give you what He wants you to have.

Have sex closer to ovulation to insure you have a boy but nothing is 100%

No. There are no ways to insure a sex. The male is "in charge" of what sex the baby will be. Its not something you can change

that is really sad that you are so determined to have a baby, and will not just be happy that you get pregnant.
