I am 21 and have never had a boyfriend! There have been a few potential boyfriends this past year but I have not been attracted to any of them. I just can't seem to find anyone that I like who likes me back!

Any suggestions or helpful advice would be greatly appretiated....

Lots of girls your age haven't had a serious boyfriend yet. Ask friends and family to set you up. Go on trips, to seminars, take classes, that interest you and that might attract some guys. Perhaps you can have a pot luck party - girls bring a dish and a "dish" male who's an ex or a friend...


Here's to a great 08

In order to date successfully a woman needs to know herself.

The law of attraction says Like attracts Like - so if your presence of mind is negative or in 'lack' then you are creating your own situation. It doesn't matter whether you understand or believe the law of attraction - it is fact just like the law of gravity.


That said, the first place anyone needs to look when they feel 'lonely' is within. Loneliness is a feeling that doesn't occur because you are alone or single but because you don't like the person you are alone and single with! If you don't like who you are - no one else will either!

Thank you for replying so quickly. I completely agree with what you wrote and have since started writing out my list of attributes! You are completly right and I felt much better just by hearing someone else say that it is normal for girls my age not to have had a serious boyfriend yet as I was beginning to think there was something wrong with me.
