boyfriend.....ugh i think not

[cutiepie1497]

Okay so I will be 16 this saturday, right? Have I had a boyfriend? no.....no one has ever been attracted to me, ever, at any time in my life. I wouldn't say I am feeling sorry for myself, I'm not, just sometimes I wonder if any guy will ever want to marry me and start a family. I feel so ugly compared to all the other girls....so....different. And my morals are different from the girls who go from boyfriend to boyfriend, since I have been here I have seen several several go through 3 boyfriends in what? 2 years? I guess its the fact no one finds me to be beautiful, attractive, girlfriend material, but you know what? High school dating hardly ever ends up in marriage and I had rather wait until college and find someone who wants me for my personality, not just for my body, which is probably why people don't find me attractive......anyways......just wanted to get this off my chest. Hopefully I will turn from an ugly duckling to a swan in a few years so I won't be so much uglier than most girls....

First of all, you are not ugly. Just because some girls spend two hours every morning on their hair doesn't make them prettier than you. Second, I can speak to you with experience; I was in the same situation you are when I was your age (only four years ago). I didn't consider myself pretty, I was a bit overweight, and I had such an odd personality I didn't think I would find ANYONE. I didn't end up getting my first date until I was 17, almost 18. Since then I have had four boyfriends, three serious. All of them liked me for my odd personality, and they were attracted to me. I started working out, and now I'm skinny, and I pay a little more attention to my appearance so now I do consider myself pretty.

In any case, things can always change pretty quickly. Don't give up hope, perhaps God is waiting to bring a guy to you until you are ready

Little Sister: You will not attract every man to you; only animals do that. But in God's timing, just the right young man, is going to be so enthralled with you and just you, that he'll be head over heels for you!

The Lord be with you. +

Your only 16 give it some time. Enjoy your teen years, your an adult for a long time.

hey sis, i know exactly what you're going through. I'm 18 and I still haven't had a boyfriend. It's rough, but God does have a guy out there for me. I just need to trust in Him. He will send a guy for me in His own time. Hang in there. and if you ever need to talk then just e-mail me... princessinpink_18_05@yahoo.com

Psalm 139:14~I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your work, and that my soul knows very well.

When ever you look in the mirror say this to yourself, for YOU are fearfully and wonderfully made. There is not one thing about you that the Lord did not design http://www.worthychristianforums.com/uploads/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)'> It is what is in the heart that makes one beautiful on the inside and outside.

I have seen beautiful people and when I got to know their heart they were not so beautiful anymore.

CUTIEPIE, please read...

I guess the thing I feel most compelled to tell you is this: God always has a plan and there is a very specific reason why your situation is what it is. I can tell you that I was considered very attractive in high school and I always had a serious boyfriend.. but I felt empty. I missed out on having female friends, I decieved my parents at times, and I ultimately compromised my morals and lost my virginity before I was married. I honestly believed that I we were totally in love, but the relationship eventually ended and my past experiences lead to more of the same with other men. Things became so bad and my reputation was so shattered at my college that I had to leave. I returned to my hometown broken, unsure of how I'd ended up in such a hole... but then I met my wonderful fiance, Jason. He is a (hot!) Christian man--who, by the way, has saved his virginity for 27 years, knowing the right woman to be his wife would come--and he lead me to Christ. I couldn't be happier, but my greatest regret is that when he gives himself to me for the first time, I won't be able to give the same back--but God used my seemingly unfortunate circumstances for the greatest good.

There will come a day when you will know exactly why things are the way they are now... and you'll be so happy God knew what He was doing!

hi cutiepie,

your 16 , there is a reason God hasn't brought that one person to you

you have time, God has something special planned for your life.

be young and keep your eyes on God.

in Christ,
