Hey, nobody's perfect, right? I'll answer even though it's in books and authors. I'm not the type to get upset at little snafus like other people here.
Well, one of the people you need to talk to is your mom. If you have your mom around, she can give you information about dating and what guys are like when on a date. Really, I can't tell you when you're ready or when you know you're ready. I don't want to go against anything your parents would have to say about it.
But I can tell you that one of the greatest things in the world is having someone to love who loves you back unconditionally. It takes a lot of maturity to reach that point in your dating life. A lot of "hits" and "misses" with guys. You'll date some jerks, most likely, and you'll date some good guys, I hope. But what you have to make sure you do is keep yourself the way you are. You don't have to become someone else to make yourself lovable. You're a great person, and if any guy tells you different, he's not worthy of your time.
Good luck when you do begin dating. I'm going to have my daughter wait until she is at least 15, but I'm hoping for closer to 16. You need to enjoy being a kid without the extra worries you take on when you start dating. (Does he like me? Why did he act that way? Why is he so distant?...pretty much look anywhere in Yahoo Answers and you'll see insecure girls who don't really have the maturity it takes to have a serious relationship. ) So, when you do start dating, remember this: have fun, enjoy your boyfriend's company, but remember: if you tie yourself down to just one guy too soon, you'll end up regretting it later almost 100% of the time. You need a chance to get to know who you are and what you want out of life. You deserve nothing less than a guy who loves you for who you are and supports every effort you make in life to better yourself. If a guy tries to hold you back from becoming the woman you want to be, he's not for you.

It depends on what he reads. :-) But seriousley, I think you will just know... Being ready isn't really the question though. It’s is HE ready? Young males can be quite immature and completely irresponsible and tend to take no responsibility for there emotions (I was one once). If you are serious, take it slow. I mean REAL slow. Make sure you have a great friendship and emotional attachment first. This way if you get hurt at least it was worth the effort.

you just know. When you get asked out, if you want to date them. It's not about it being the first, but the right first.
