I know the feeling. But don’t let it get you down. I‘m shy and that was a major part of it. But you don’t have to change yourself whatsoever. You probably have a secret admirer who’s to shy to reveal himself. I would tell you to try and overcome your shyness, but I would be a hypocrite in telling you that. That’s the same thing that I have to work on, and it’s hard. Some of these people are telling you to dress better or to change your hairstyle, but you probably want a relationship that’s based on real feelings, not physical attractions. And doing those things will only get you a superficial relationship. One thing that I found helpful is to smile more. When you’re shy and people see you smile they feel that you’re more approachable and see your kindness, so they’ll want to get you know you better. And even though it’s hard to talk around people that you’re comfortable with, if they start conversation with you, try your best to keep that conversation going. You don’t have to show your entire personality, just show that you’re willing to talk. Say thank you for little things like if someone hands you a paper. Their good opinion of you will increase. And remember that some relationships come with time. Yours will come soon enough. Just be patient and try your best to meet new people.

Oh, this is ridiculous! Don't change a THING! It sounds like you're in high school. Are you aware of just how many people there are in the world?? And you're worried about what a bunch of dumb high school boys think? You are going to meet someone GREAT! Maybe it won't be until you get to college, or maybe it'll be someone from another school. I NEVER dated until I got to college. There were NO quality boys in my high school, but in college, where there are just so many more people, from all different kinds of places, I found some WONDERFUL, NICE guys.
PLEASE just be yourself. Wearing provocative clothing will only make you look like you're trying too hard OR that you're a slut. If YOU like someone, ask them out! Or go on group dates, if your friends have them. Meet people! I understand the awkwardness off seeing other kids at school holding hands and smooching in the hallways, but NEVER try to force people to like you. They WILL like you. Maybe they already do and they're just too shy. You don't know what they are all thinking!!
Good luck! And be yourself!!

If I had the attitude that I have now and was still in highschool... wow I would have a blast. Anyways, your only left out in your own mind. Carve your own trails, your soal is sure to follow and your true friends will always be there. Be the best person you can be to the best of your knowledge...about all ya can do :-) oh yes.. most importantly.. who cares what people think about you.. cuz you cant control that. So stop worring about it and start livin it up the way you always wanted it to be.

Relationships while in school involve developing your social skills.
Start by making good friends who will do activities you like. Do not compromise you values when meeting these friends. If you don't match with this group, search the other groups till you're in harmony.
Then have social gatherings. Group dates to the movies, ice-cream, or parties at you house (or friends). When you spot a guy you like, take notice of who his friends are. The hope is to get a social get together where you can mingle with the cute dude.
Above all, have fun no matter where you are in the dating game; other wise, you're wasting your time!!!

Your young and smart and good looking.
BE YOURSELF
I know it's the time to be in love but you have to think to yourself and just believe that there is someone out there and he hasn't found you yet.
Don't give up yet dear.
Love isn't everything in life so stay in school, finish and then you will have all the time in the world to find it.
Trust me it will find you so sit back and enjoy life as it comes.
Good Luck

Well.. You can't get people to like you, exactly.
Mainly just be yourself, as annoying as that can be to hear. I hate it when people tell me that because I don't think it's very good advice. But also I don't know if you mean to get a guy to like you exactly.. but if you like a guy a lot, and he doesn't know it, first try to make tons and tons of eye contact and maybe he'll go over to you and talk, or maybe you should go over and talk to him and get to know him a lot.

Be yourself and change your appearance. Holding hands is no big deal either. You don't have to have a boyfriend to feel important. Tough age. Hang in there and be yourself. It will happen

The key is not to try to hard ! My husband knows a guy that tries to hard and I find being around him makes me nauseous.
