I'm such a saddo!

I'm really quite unhappy at the moment romance-wise. I just broke up with my boyfriend, because I just really wasn't attracted to him. He was the first person that I've gone out with, and I did so because I was desperate to have somebody (I'm almost 19), but it really didn't work, he was too immature. Now I'm back to looking for someone else because I really need someone, emotionally and sexually too (even though I'm a virgin) but I just can't see why anyone would want to go out with me. I know I'm not unattractive- to be honest my looks are the only card I've got to play. I know I'm a decent person too, but I'm just not very interesting- not bubbly or vivacious, just 'nice'. I feel that I'll never be with someone whom I am truly attracted to..:frown:

Now I've met somebody that I've really fallen for- but I don't know what to do next.Anyone in a similar position?

Not in a similar position but the main advice I can give to you is to really push the boat out with this new person, I mean show some serious interest and just give it your all :smile:

Yeah, but I don't want to look desperate! Thats what I always end up doing and I don't want t come across like that- why can't somebody chase me for a change dammit!

You won't seem desperate if you don't ask him out at every oppurtunity and drool all over him...

Play hard to get a bit, act sultry, flirt but in a way he has to work out... be sexy

I'm kind of in the same situation, not the going out with someone because I'm desperate (not that lucky), but the whole not being very interesting/bubbly/active. I just managed to live with it, it's not a big deal to me anyway.

i thought i was boring i mean i dont drink, drugs, smoking, dont like parties, not a risk taker and really shy around new people but my bf loves me for who i am and iv come to love myself and just because you havnt got a bf doesnt mean ull never get one u havnt met the rite person peoples lives are different. i mean im not flirty so i went to a mates party and this guy told me i was gorgeous i then began to like him but couldnt bring myself to flirt.. i found out from a friend that he liked me too and if i hadnt have had tht friend who had his number i woudnt b with him now. you can flirt without appearing desperate. hav fun experiment!!
