I’m Lonely and Don’t Know Why

0

Okay. All I need is for someone to explain to me exactly why I am basically the loner girl out of all of my friends. All of my friends have a boyfriend or girlfriend or at least someone they’re talking to. But me? Oh no not me. I mean I honestly don’t know why because I do take pride in myself and I’d average myself an 8 out of 10 which isn’t too bad in my opinion. I have all A’s, I play piano, I’m a pastor’s daughter, and I dress fashionably. I do everything right (most of the time) and I guess that’s just not enough. NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN ME. What have I done wrong? I don’t understand. Also, I have a friend that likes this guy that I will call “Billy”. So I had a crush on Billy for the longest and so one day I decided to tell him. Billy told me that he wasn’t ready for a relationship and that he wanted to be only friends with me anyways. So I excepted it and moved on. Later on, my friend that I will name “Stacey” comes along and I will be completely honest with you and giver her a rate of 7 out of 10. When I give rates, I include EVERYTHING not just looks. So long story short, he ends up asking her out and she tells me about how much she likes Billy and how they will dance together at her sweet 16 and I am still sitting over here, lonely, confused, and now hopeless. WHAT AM I FREAKING MISSING?! Please, someone tell me how I can get a boyfriend or at least make myself partially more attractive..

Alright, I can't tell you how to get a boyfriend, but I can offer you some perspective. Just because you rate somebody as a 7 or 8 doesn't mean that everybody feels the same way. People each have their own taste. Like, personally, I don't like girls who dress fashionably. You might be objectively gorgeous and do everything right, but it comes down to who's around you and what they want.

And, honestly, high school is a pretty small place. You're stuck with the same group of people for 4 years, and if you don't find anyone there, it might just be a matter of the group you got stuck with. Don't sweat it. If you don't find a boyfriend in high school, you'll definitely find somebody in college (which is a lot bigger place).
