Yeah, all my friends have boyfriends and all that. I keep reminding myself it's not going to matter when I grow up because I wouldn't think in Jr. High you would truly and deeply fall in love...but it feels so weird when we go to dances and stuff and I'm the only one without a date...what should I do?

You are thinking in the right way. At that time, you don't need to be thinking about serious relationships and all...besides your friends are only going to get one thing more from you out of having boyfriends earlier-- more heartbreaks and first kisses that you won't ever be able to get back. You should never feel outcasted or whatever among your friends, because hey, the right guy is totally worth waiting for right??
Anyway, if you don't want to feel weird at school dances, go out with your best guy friend. He is someone you can trust, and if it sparks anything, you guys would already know alot about each other.
Hope diz helps =]

I went to dances alone all they way through high school. It saves you from the drama of "oh my god why is he danceing with another girl. Plus you can sit and laugh at the lovey little couples out there. I did it as a choice. It always feels like true love when you are young. It really dosen't change when you get older either. Do what you feel. The only one that can make the decision is you. I waited and I had a 3 year relationship in high school and we don't even talk now. Take your own corse.

Don't worry about what other people have jr. high relationships hardly ever turn into real love or a lasting relationship. Because when it is your time to a have a boyfriend you're going to find that one that you had to wait and find. So girl keep your head up because you probably to fly for some jr. boy anyway.

I know how u feal because I have the same problem. I feal left out when my friends have dates and i dont. I get the fealing that im missing something. But then I have to remeber that yes, it is only Jr. High and yes, we are probly not facing the loves of our lives yet, because we do not have the faintest idea wat that is yet. Try to have fun! Become friends with your friends dates, but dont look like you are trying to steal them. Also Just be yourself and if you really want to go out with someone, than ask someone to dance at the next dance or something, the worst that could happen is that they say no. And remeber we are only in Jr. High.

Here's a lesson that many learn when they're much older but would be great for you to learn at your age: when choosing a boyfriend, make sure you truly care for him and NOT dating him because you want to be like you're other friends. First, if you're not ready to date, the relationship will just be disastrous. Second, there is nothing more important or special than having true feelings for one another.

you should enjoy your freedom and your youth.. enjoy the time you get to spend with your friends and family. Sooner or later a good guy will come along and sweep you off your feet and your world will revolve around him for a while. So go to dances and dance away with your friends and stuff or just hang out. It doesn't matter if you don't have a date. Enjoy yourself, high school is right around the corner, you won't regret enjoying your freedom while you can.

Soudsn exactly like me. Most of my friends are going out with each other and whenever they go out, it's awkward for me, being the only single one there. Sometimes i feel left out, like they only invite me along because they feel sorry for me. I try not to think about it, I don't really feel any pressure to get a boyfriend thought one would be nice, and you're right, just think of how you have the rest of your life to find the man of your dreams. You probably won't even remember half the guys in your grade 5 years after graduating. Don't let being single get you down. You get to flirt with all the cuties now ;)

.....If it bothers you that much to be the only one without a date, then next time there's a group thing or whatever, just ask a guy you think is cool. As a friend. Let him know where you stand on the relationship tip. Chances are, you'll find out that this is the best way to go about it anyhow, and you'll be wise beyond your years.

You should get yourself out there on the market. If you don't talk to any guys or let them know you're interested in dating, you can't expect them to just read your mind. My advice would be to see if one of your friends can hook you up with one of their boyfriends' friends. Also, I wouldn't really stress over love in Jr. High. You can't seek love or force it upon yourself. It's just something you come upon and I'm sure you'll find it eventually. Be patient and good things will come.

i know how you feel, but im in high school, i stayed single my whole freshman year so i wasnt tied down to one boy. let me tell you, its fun for a while but then you just feel like a piece of a**, im not proud of it especially now that ive found the right boy for me. but just hang in there and stay single til you find someone thats right for you because in the end it will be worth it, trust me. and i was single when all my friends had boyfriends for a while, just hang out with the ones that can include you at all times, even if its just the three of you.
