Ehhh...i'm not lonely at all. I just broke up with someone because she went to college (i'm in 10th grade), at least a few of the the teens here besides me have lifes i hope.:D

Yeah, I was close to asking someone out until I realized they'd be gone late August because of going to college (I'm NOW in the 12th grade)

Oh, and sometimes being single is a lot more fun ;)
(it gets tiring after a while though)

Yea there is nothing wrong with playing the field for a little bit, but its nice to have a girlfriend.

Here's my problem with relationships: I look at all people (who aren't my family, in three different ways)

1. I don't care much about this person (doesn't matter how well or how bad they treat me)

2. This person is a complete joke (many of my friends fall into this category, it doesn't mean I don't love them)

3. I really really think highly of this person.

Sadly, most people fall into the 1 or 2 category. Like, I'm a REALLY social and outgoing person, but when it comes to actually forming closer bonds with people, it usually falls within those three. Also, at this point in my life, I can only think of less than 5 people (whom I'm in contact with) who fall into my number three category.

EDIT: oh, and as the uh... mindless teenager that I am, I'd also like to add category number 4, the "I'd tap that" category. haha.

How about the newly created category number 5! (created thanks to the "internet effect") Category 5 - Really cool people on the internet that are fun to talk to.


Oh, and believe me, the second I get a mate, I'll post a picture on here :D

Conversation:

"Hey, so do you like Mountain climbing?"

"Oh yeah! I wish Apple would make some gear for it though!"

"omg, I KNOW! like the iHelmet, or something cool like that!"

lol, well... I'm off to go on a "date" with my crush, it's not a date because I just asked if they'd like to go hang out for a day.

Yea it seems like there are lots of them on this forum. :eek:
Who would've thought? ;)

If I remember right, didn't you have a companion...?

[raggedjimmi]

Been there, done that :cool:

In my case I went out with a lesbian, then with a girl who had an "internet boyfriend" in Brazil, then went out with her best mate.
Teh Drama's :(

First day of college I met my Cazza and that was a good 6 years back. Everything changes in college. You young whipper snappers.

Oh: and school was filled with lonely times too. Le sigh :(

I have never had a girlfriend. :eek: Hopping that changes in High School.

Im not "lonely", but it would be nice to have a girlfriend.

Which is why I went to a different college to where most of my old school friends went - a nice clean break :) I've been trouble-free ever since.

I have a really good friend. But, she is always busy and it is hard to get together with her. So I do feel lonely due to our inability to get together.

Hey me too...But actually a completely different, except for the last part...You should call her up and be like Shane (that's her internet name), Shane, next thursday we are going to do something so don't make any plans. :) Worked for me. Give it a try.

[kidwithdimples]

You guys need to log out from this forum and go out and get laid.

[dukebound85]

all i have to say hanging out on an internet forum does not help your case at all lol

just go do stuff and youre bound to run into people:)

Problem is her parents will just throw her for a loop and say they're going somewhere that day at the last minute. And the overprotective boyfriend probably isn't helping.

Do you share friends in common? If so, get together with another friend that maybe her parents know better. Then they won't worry as much. The boyfriend, that really sucks but i mean, what can he do? She has her own rights and life.

Nah, I met her at my job. So I don't know her friends. I agree it is her own life and she seems to know that it is her own life, but she seems to follow what the BF tells her. The whole situation confuses me. She realizes he's a jerk and that she will never marry him, but she doesn't break up permanently with him( they have been on and off). At least she is a young so she can learn from these experiences. I have pretty much become the friend that lends a shoulder for her to rant on. :o Not that it is a bad thing.

Are you interested in her as more than a friend? That could complicate things. Do you guys still work together? You can go out to lunch together maybe? Or maybe after work, maybe if there are places close by or something. That way no one is really involved in anything except you two.

No, we don't work together anymore. We both quit( not at the same time). I did make a move towards her, but it failed. She was my first person I made a move towards and the first person I have felt the way I did. So it took me awhile to get over her( in fact, I realized reality just 3 weeks ago. :o ). Frankly, I wasn't very good at hiding my feelings. Everyone at work knew I had feelings for her. I think the BF saw that too( yet he acts cool with me). So yeah, it is definitely complicating things. But, she is still a very good friend to me and I will miss her when I go to college this fall.

Maybe you can stop over her house sometime and just hang out and talk before you go to college. It sounds like it would be awkward but it's not as much as you would think.

[sushi]

HS is a good time to develop some buddies and friends. Having a GF or BF is nice, but not needed. They tend to complicate things.

Try to focus your energy on other things. Learn to be independent. Find ways to entertain yourself and not be dependent on others to enjoy yourself. Get involved with organizations, sports, music and hobbies. These skills will serve you well on your journey through life.

I don't know where she lives. She has always come over to my house or met somewhere else. Though she did seem open to me over over to her house sometime when she came to my graduation. Though nothing happened so far. I made the move back in April( that is why I put the :o when I said I realized reality 3 weeks ago) when she quit and we have still seen each other occasionally. She acted like I never made the move, but I don't know what to make about that. My naivete wants me to think it is due to her not wanting it to get in the way of our friendship. But, I don't know.

That is good advice, and important. It is hard to follow, especially if all of your friends are getting mates all the time. It puts pressure on you, but you just need to look out for yourself. If you find someone, great, but don't rush it, and don't go out looking for someone. It doesn't work that way usually.

It is possible that she never acted liek you mad a move because she wasn't really interested in you in that way, but did not want to be obvious, or have to tell you straight out that she wasn't. Call her up or talk to her online and work something out. If you say something stupid you can blame it on this thread...or me...;) But I don't think that will be a problem

I did message her saying if she was avoiding me due to knowing I had feelings for her. She responded asking why I felt that way and knows we're friends, but she has been busy with her new job and night class( and now her own business as well) and hasn't had time to hang out with any of her friends. And frankly I would rather have her tell me straight up. I don't like mind games/hidden messages. I never get them.

Most people would, but it is very hard for anyone to be downright and just say it as it is. But see, she's really busy, and I understand how you can see it as her avoiding you, but take her word for it when she says she isn't.

I am taking her word for it. Especially since 2 weeks ago we went out to get something to eat( and give her the birthday present I got her). She explained her situation with me. Though I have another friend saying she is using "being busy" as an excuse not to hang out with me.

And she might be, but the point is, if she is using it as an excuse, you gotta let her. There are many reasons she might not want to see you, maybe for your sake or hers. Maybe she doesn't want you to get your hopes up, especially so close to you leaving, or maybe she doesn't want to get too attached to someone who is leaving in scant over a month. Either way, if it is an excuse, so be it, and if its not, so be it. Just go with the flow.

[sushi]

It is hard to follow, especially if all of your friends are getting mates all the time. It puts pressure on you, but you just need to look out for yourself.
Yep, peer pressure, whether direct or indirect, can be very strong.

However, once you make a stand within yourself not to be swayed, that is the day you become truly free in thought and actions, and can then follow your own path whatever that may be.

If you find someone, great, but don't rush it, and don't go out looking for someone. It doesn't work that way usually.
Very wise words.

When you really want something is when you least can find it.

Besides, great relationships are built on friendship first. :)

In one case, person 1 and person 2 were dating, and person 1 was friends person 3. Person 3 then hooked up with person 2, and then told person 1 that they were "testing to see if [person 2] was true to them". What's that? Drama? You can have mine... and I'm going into my junior year of college!

I think i have enough drama just trying to understand what you just said. :p:p

Haha, this thread got farther than I expected :p

Anyways, my "date" was pretty good.
And yes, I did say "ihelmet" when we went to the Apple Store (I needed to grab a video cable). We spent the morning swimming, grabbed some food, and then we went rock climbing. After that we went down by the river and grabbed some coffee and dipped our toes in the water. Pretty exhausting day. The sad part though, it made me realize how much I'd miss him when he'll leave for college. :(:(:(

Yeah, it was a blast. I needed a day like this (pretty bored lately). All the employees at the Apple Store were so busy that I ended up helping this couple pick out some stuff they needed.

Telp, if you lived closer I'd hangout with you.

[MacGeek7]

Whenever I think about how lonely I am or how it would be nice to have a girlfriend I remind myself of how much money I'm saving by staying single - lol

Haha, yeah... it's pretty costly going on dates. Especially because I HATE having to ask the other person to pay for something. Like, I always have to pay for things even if someone else offers to cover it.

That's awesome! Jetskiing is seriously my one of my favorite activities. It's just orgasmic.

I hate it when pictures and videos play all day inside your head, memories of their smile, their smell, and what they mean to you. Random memories that make you want them even more, for them to be a part of you, someone you can turn to. Someone you can hold.

Good news!!!

Yesterday, I hung out with this girl that I like, and what do you know, we are now dating as of today. Life is Good.

I had only 6 days of being single.

Good luck to all of the lonely people here...you will all get someone special!

Well i didn't necessarily mean long distance relationship. I just meant, keep in touch with the person, you never know what the future might have in store for you. Unless your love life is as pathetic as mine, then you probably do. :p:rolleyes:

I would love to stay in touch with them. I probably am but as far as being a couple it probably wouldn't work out.

Well, apparently like 40% of the people who wrote stuff in my "truthbox" on myspace want to do me. And the rest think that I'm the coolest kid ever. I still have horrible dating luck though.

I feel you man. Although I have no idea how people see me physically, but I am just as friendly as anyone, so everyone likes my personality...mostly atleast...I think... :)

[quagmire]

I think my karma is messed up. It seems like every girl related thread here always ends up in a happy ending except for mine. THAT IS NOT FAIR! :mad::mad: :p Maybe it is because I am looking too hard. :(

Anyway, congrats iTeen. Hope you two have a great time together.

We're just repliers to this thread. What I meant is that for the people who made threads about this sort of issue it ends up working out and they get the person they were interested in. But, it didn't work for me. That is why it is not fair. :p

But, anyway I have a few reasons to be happy. :) One is I am going to the best aviation college in the US and today( since it is Monday already on the east coast) I leave for England for a cruise and I hope to see the new Opel/Vauxhaull Insignia at the British Autoshow which will become our new Saturn Aura sometime in the future. Not letting my girlless situation effect me that much. :D

Is a thread enough for us lonely teens? I'd think we'd need a whole sub-forum. ;)

That's a great idea. I think it should be named "High School".


maybe we should get some sort of mac rumors dating thing going on... meet random people from the forums, but at least you know before you meet them you'll have at least one common interest ;)

Or you could like, you know, go out, meet random people, bounce around until you find some common ground, or something like that.

Keep trying? In all seriousness, its the only real way. I have a friend that is probably more than twice the age of most people posting in this thread that came to an epiphany about this and similar subjects about a year ago. She's highly intelligent and while has had an active social life for as long as I've known her, she has always suffered with anxiety, and struggling to make things happen. Since she's pretty smart, she's tried just about every other way to start making friends that she can think of, and completely exhausted all other methods until she came to the realisation that the absolute only way to feel less depressed about this stuff, less lonely, less pathetic, it to get off your arse, and go and meet people. And keep ****ing doing it. Over and over and over again.

As she was telling me all this, I was going through a similar thing although I was far less whiney about it than most people in this thread have been. I took her advice, got off my ass and went out. Again and again and again. Some of the time I didn't meet anybody interesting. Some other times I did. I met several of my current friends while taking swing dancing lessons. Goth themed swing dancing lessons nonetheless. Randomness.

You lot are feeling lonely? Well, sitting in front of your computer screen by yourself, typing into a text box about how lonely you are, and not having any physical interaction....yeah. Hard to see why you're feeling lonely.

There's a reason why I hardly spend any time on here anymore, and its not simply because half of the demis hate me, or the progressive lameness of this forum as a whole, its simply because I have no time to visit here anymore due to me like, being happy and socialising and stuff. And drinking. And fooling around. And stuff.

In all seriousness your post, although giving some good advice, misses the point very clearly. First off, no one here is whining, we are just sharing our thoughts and feelings on the matter. Secondly, not everyone is comfortable to just jump up and go meet random people. I and I am sure many people on htis thread have a very active social life. All your post really does, as it hides behind all those words, is attack a situation that is not there. If you have read anything on here, none of us are simply sitting in front of the computer screen crying, as im sure you have that idea in your head. iJesus was out all day having a great time with someone who means a lot. For most people, it really isn't as easy as just getting up and going out and meeting new people. That is such a general statement and its a very meaningless one for many. I am glad your friend and you found wisdom in those worse. In fact, thanks for sharing them, as I am sure many people will also find wisdom in those words and act upon them, but to think that you can come into a thread and just sputter words like that is a wrong.

[vniow]

Um, I think it actually is that simple, why wouldn't it be? Unless you're physically incapable of getting up, going out and meeting people, there's no reason why that shouldn't be happening.

[janey]

I am totally antisocial. If you ever go to a party with me, I will always be the one on my iPhone in a corner.

It helps a lot to go with friends, to go to an event with nothing but friends, and to meet friends of friends. A little drink can help too (assuming you're old enough).

I still hate going to events where I don't know anyone, but I force myself to try to interact to meet new people to make connections for jobs and things. And well, I vastly prefer events where I know people, whether I know them originally in-person or online..e.g. I went to WWDC and met a ton of people thanks to Facebook and Twitter that I normally wouldn't have the guts to approach otherwise..just because I felt comfortable enough with them cause I spent weeks beforehand talking about all sorts of things with them. And of course, the rest of the conference was this one huge Mac developer fest, so it helps to have something in common to talk about when meeting new people.

It's worth a try.

What does being gay have to do with being lonely.

My sexuality has been cause for some unfair discrimination and verbal abuse, but hardly a reason for me to be even more lonelier. If anything, it's one more thing I might have in common with someone I meet, which makes it that much easier to talk to them.

It's harder to find other gay people. Or when you really really start to like someone who happens to be straight, it makes things a lot harder. Being gay doesn't mean you're lonely, it just means you have to try harder sometimes to find someone to date.

[Prof.]

Also, gay guys tend to be reeeeeally vain and picky when it comes to dating.:rolleyes::(

[roylikeswaffles]

sigh..i have a problem and its annoying the hell outta me.
so i like this girl and im pretty sure she kinda likes me back..but i cant really tell her anything cuz she wont open up and talk when we're on AIM but she pretty much opens up after our class is over and we get to talk for like 2 minutes and stuff..but besides that she wont really open up to. she doesnt really start or make conversations and when i talk to her she's like "lol" or "haha" or "yea" or "ok" and i just think that maybe shes not right for me..and im pretty sure even if we did get in a relationship and stuff it might not last long..actually im sure that if we did get in a relationship it would either end quickly or last very long. o_O but during class and stuff she opens up and starts talking to me a lot more than on AIM and im confused as hell right now. i know that it probably wont work out..so im slowly trying to convince myself that i should move on but whenever im about to let go, theres always a breakthrough that lasts a few days..then it fades away. my high school life isnt going that great i guess right now..

Truth be told, I've found that not to be true. Maybe it's an age thing (I'm almost not a teen anymore..sigh), maybe it's a location thing. Maybe you're just not looking into the right places.

And yes, it sucks to like someone who's straight, but if you get to know them really well and they're not automatically creeped out by the idea, maybe they'll discover that their attraction to other humans is not so black and white.

[Much Ado]

What does being gay have to do with being lonely?

Well, masses.

See, in 'The Real World' I am uncomfortable about my sexuality (very, very few know), which means I tend to avoid all intimate situations. It's led to me being anti-social.

That and a whole host of other issues.

Someone get me some tissues and a hand held camera. Oh, the humanity! YouTube here I come (:rolleyes:)

[janey]

See, in 'The Real World' I am uncomfortable about my sexuality (very, very few know), which means I tend to avoid all intimate situations. It's led to me being anti-social.

Okay, maybe I came off as more than insensitive in that post, which I didn't mean for it to.

I'm echoing the lovely vniow when I say this but...It's hard, but if you want to get somewhere, you've got to start somewhere. Gay or not, it's hard! Things don't work out, everyone's an ass, people discriminate against others. Sexual preference is just another one of those things people discriminate against. But to a lot of folks, race, age, weight, physical appearance matter just as much. It shouldn't be an extra factor, I guess is what I'm trying to say.

[Much Ado]

Sure, I get you.

It's just that race, age etc. are there for all to see from the start, whereas with sexuality you can choose to hide it. Sometimes loneliness seems better than utter humiliation by my peers. In my crazy world that makes sense.

I'm in HS, so everyone knows everyone else, which makes things harder.

I got dumped a few months ago and havent seen anyone since, not coz I cant get over her (I already have) but coz I dont really care... I dont feek the need to always be with someone, plus by not going out with someone I can save money that I would normally spend on dates for my DeLorean! :)

Yeah, at first it is hard, but once you do it a few times it does become easier. Keep trying.

It's not that easy for me. I get severe panic attacks when I try to meet new ppl.
Then devise a plan where you can overcome this problem in your life.

FWIW, life is full of problems to overcome. To successful in life, you must first learn to deal with your problems and overcome them. You would be surprised at what you can do when you set your mind to it.

I would highly recommend, "Escape from the Box, The Wonder of Human Potential," to all teens.

You can find it on Amazon.com for $19.95 in paperback form.

It's not my fault tho:(

Damn genetics.
Never ever say something like this.

For if you do, surely it will become true.

plus by not going out with someone I can save money that I would normally spend on dates for my DeLorean! :)

prof. I never knew you were a teenager. In my mind, I always imagined you as a middle aged man or something, haha...



I don't let dating or relationships (or lack there of) get me down, even though sometimes I would love to be in one. I mostly just go with the flow, and would rather wait and find someone that I REALLY want to be with, then jump at whatever chance comes my way. Its actually fun being single sometimes!

I get paniccy when I try to buy something from a shop and the person behind the counter asks me something D:

I hate social situations. I, too, can't just "go out and meet new people". I'm too shy, and, as I said, I get panicy as well.

That and no-one would want to meet me ;) (see picture included in my last post hehe)

But yeah... all the people saying "Just go out and meet people, stop being lazy" should STFU because it's not that simple for everyone.

Hence why I am really worried about starting College (UK) next month, because I'm worried I won't make friends with anyone due to my social issues.

I hate social situations. I, too, can't just "go out and meet new people". I'm too shy, and, as I said, I get panicy as well.

That and no-one would want to meet me ;) (see picture included in my last post hehe)

But yeah... all the people saying "Just go out and meet people, stop being lazy" should STFU because it's not that simple for everyone.

Hence why I am really worried about starting College (UK) next month, because I'm worried I won't make friends with anyone due to my social issues.



oh, I guess the internet thing is a joke...and I just don't get it cause I actually am a girl? lol



but I'm kinda the same way, at least I used to be. I couldn't go to the store and buy anything with out almost having an anxiety attack when the person would ask me a question or something, the same thing with waiters taking my order...but I've mostly gotten over it.

[iJesus]

Well, I'm pretty social actually. Like, I talk a lot to other people that I don't know (I'm the guy who'd start talking to you in the elevator). The thing is though, the people whom I did take interest in this year (referring to the individuals whom I'd love to date) are moving away this year. I always hung out with the seniors, and being a junior this past year, most of my friends are interests are moving away.

I'll probably find someone once the school year starts. I live in a place where everyone is really spread apart. Like my best friend is a 1/2 hour drive away (we still go to the same school) and my other best friend is a 45 minute drive. It really sucks living in a pretty spread out place.

The other thing about me, I never know when it's right to take the next step. Like, I'm always the kind of guy who jumps right into things, most of the time faster than someone else.

Just don't wait too long to go to the next step. I only talked to my girlfriend for a couple of days at school and over the phone before I asked her out and now look where I am. :D

[ErikCLDR]

I have this strange relationship with this girl. She's pretty good looking, awesome personality, a really fun person. She currently is dating this boy, however she always wants to hang out with me.

The other day she begged me to go to the store with her to buy a board game. Then she wanted to get dinner, so we had dinner together. Then she wanted ice cream so we got that. Next we went back to her house and rode horses together. After that we watched a movie.

Maybe she doesn't see her relationship going very far with her BF. He's nice but kinda strange.

And how do you feel about all of this?

[ErikCLDR]

And how do you feel about all of this?

I feel a little guilty to be honest but its what she wants to do. I've asked where her BF is and usually when this happens he is not around.

I'm obviously not going to something stupid like make out or something like that. She's not a slut or anything close to that, so I'm not really concerned.

I would just go a long with it and see what happens. Sounds like you guys are having fun together, so I would just appreciate it while it lasts!

She's a great friend of mine. We've always kind of had a thing. But I am not going to push it. I don't see her current relationship going really that far. But she's a nice girl so I also can't see her breaking up with him, I think it would have to be the other way around. I feel like I am different from a lot of people. I don't feel the need to be in a relationship with someone.

Here's some advice a wise person once told me.

Always look under the hood. Looks can be deceiving.

well, he did say she has a nice personality. And I also wouldn't be suspicious of every good looking girl either!

Interesting that you went this way.

It sounds like she is a good person based on his description. I was merely trying to reinforce that with the quote. Bottom line, is that the person's character is much more important than their looks for long term success.

As far as being suspicious of every good looking girl ... I'll stick with what experience has taught me over the years. Thank you very much. :)

Anyhow, the teens are a tough time for many of us. But somehow we all manage to survive. :)

[apsterling]

Okay.

I know you're all dying to know how it went.



I guess it wasn't an EPIC fail, but it wasn't the greatest thing ever. I discovered as soon as we got on the bus that she recently (like, two weeks ago) was pretty much pushed into dating another guy by a friend of hers.

I talked to her about it though, (I know you'll all say she's trying to make me feel better, but) and she says she feels terrible about dating this guy, and is trying to give him a chance. She said that she wants to try going with me if it doesn't (and likely it won't) work with him.

So, fail, but a positive looking one, I guess.

[Telp]

Hardly a fail mate. And if it is, its a fail for her for choosing the wrong guy. Best of luck to you. Giver her some time with this guy. Most of the time these things dont last long.

Tomorrow I leave for San Francisco with my friend Erik, does anyone in the area want to hang out?

Somewhere, some place there is the right person. You will know.

I think the worst is that every girl in my grade does not hang out with anybody in our grade. They all want to be with the Seniors. But, one of my closest friends (she lives right near me) we are quite close, we dated for a year but we decided to stay friends. We hang out a lot when we have nothing to do (which is everyday) and smoke some pot. We have a lot of fun. She is on and off with a couple seniors, but we are still close. Probably the only girl in my grade that I like.

i think you are making up excuses when you say girls only want to hang out with seniors.

everyone likes a nice guy where people , both guys and girls, enjoy that persons company and is fun to be around

if your excuse is true though lol, then id go after the senior girls as apparently all the "juniors" are with the seniors lol

I am completely serious. Most of the girls in our grade love the Seniors. The juniors and Senior girls are lonely, but still dont hang out with any of us. Just waiting to be a Junior and Senior. Most of the guys in our grade dont have any girlfriends.

[noodle654]

The good thing is, some of the girls are starting to hang back out with most of us again. Being a Junior this year should be better.

This is fairly true of my school too. A lot of freshman and sophmores (especially) and even some 8th graders are all going out seniors. On the other hand, a lot of them I would never think of dating, and in that case, I am all for this. Although when it's someone you like it does suck :(

That is the exact opposite of what goes on at my school. The older girls go out with the younger dudes! So many of my friends that are girls went out with dudes younger than themselves. Personally I could not do this at all. That is why I'm a little older than my girlfriend. :cool: Also, being older makes me feel like I have more power for some reason... ;)

[ipodtouchy333]

i loved the first couple of seasons of The OC but things started going downhill from there and i hate watching repeats of TV Shows.

[BlakTornado]

Oh boy. I may not be so lonely after all...

I bumped into my Ex-Girlfriend (who I despised) at a gig I was playing at today... and well, we got talking and now I'm in love with her again D:

But this time I think it may work... dammit... I hate myself for doing this again, but I'm happy that we may be getting back together.

Oh well lol. It'll be ok in the end, I guess. lol. Optimism time! :D

There is hope for all teenage geeks out there! yay!

[ErikCLDR]

Older guys at my school always date younger girls. Almost never the other way around.

However, when like a senior dates a freshman or sophomore you can discern that the senior is a complete loser and possibly a future pedophile and that the freshman/sophomore has few friends and is a complete attention whore. They're usually depressed too. Thats just speaking in generalities though.

Optimism and relationships are not good things hahahah. Sorry I just have this friend that goes out with a girl for like 2-3 weeks, breaks up, he gets super depressed, and then wants to make it work out... even if the girl is a slut. Good luck though.

Update on the girl.... I went to a party, it was all graduated seniors, except me (going into my senior year this fall). I think she spent more time with me then with her BF. They had a few snuggly moments but then she would always look at me.

[janey]

I think the worst is that every girl in my grade does not hang out with anybody in our grade.

Back when I was in high school (god, I never imagined I would actually be saying that), the only reason why I'd be wanting to go out with someone older than me is because all the guys around me were immature twats asking me for porn and warez, who were also acting extremely juvenile when it came to relationships and sex. I actually thought my first relationship back when I was like in middle school was way more mature than what I saw going on a couple years after that ended with my friends and other people my age. And of course, none of the older guys wanted to date girls who were too young, cause some of us were pretty immature too.

Anyway, point being I'm college-aged now, and I still come across people my age who act very stupidly whenever relationships come up but not as many: as people grow older that sort of goes away. Just give it time.


(fwiw, my current fwb is around 4 years older than me. we get along just fine, except for his massive hate of Apple and my massive hate of his employer (big greedy game developer), but we can deal :) ).

Back when I was in high school (god, I never imagined I would actually be saying that)

Tell me about it. Sometimes I catch myself referring to all my high school stuff in the present tense. Oh well that will probably be over with when I start college.

[lozanoj83]

I guess you can put me into the lonely teens thread
im berely 18, turned it last month.

I guess you can say my High School is as much as some of you have described it, most of our girls were interested in way older people (and usually went out with people from outside school)

I managed to go out with one girl, but I didnt feel feelings for her so I broke it off, dont feel quite right going out with someone you dont know what you feel..

Hopefully UCR will bring new adventures, High School seemed pretty dull at times... :p

[TSE]

hey guys whats up.

im not really lonely but i dont have a girlfriend so yea i dunno if a girl pops up in my school that i like i will prolly ask her out! im 15 and going to be a sophomore. i did get asked out at the mall the other day by this one chick that was pretty n all but she was just kinda i dunno weird.

i really dont think a girlfriend would work out though because i usually work out at the local y from about right after school till 6 pm central. after that i need to do my homework so maybe she can work out with me? ;) that would be kinda hot.

but yea i dont think i need a girlfriend though because i do get to meet girls at parties all the time like one time we were playing 7 minutes in heaven and i got to go with this really hot columbian chick and get this... a hot jewish chick to be honest i never thought she was jewish cause i never saw a hot jew before not trying to be racist but seriously never saw a hot jew.

no dont take me wrong im sure jews appeal to most people but most jewish chicks and dudes here in minnesota that i know actually look like the stereotypical jew... huge nasty jew nose pubic hair on their head bushy eyebrows n huge chin.

im not saying i hate jews its just that almost every jew ive seen has looked like that im pretty sure its just my personal experience and there are a lot of hot jews out there. :p

Older guys at my school always date younger girls. Almost never the other way around.


thats because the girls will put out, just so they can say they put out with *insert popular older guy here*

[JurgenWigg]

haha, in high school I used to be one of those guys who would date younger girls, but now that Im in college i tend to go after the older girls. I guess in HS it used to be that I'd get really sick of the people in my grade, the people who I grew up with for over a decade and the younger girls were just something new, and I wouldn't have to worry about them graduating or older guys like I would with older girls.

Now that I'm in college, i'm interested in more things about a girl than just being different. Age doesn't really matter as much as their relative maturity level now, i guess, and man, i never really realized just how immature we all were when it came to relationships until I started meeting girls who weren't completely nuts.

you are lonely and single

get used to it.

try stop doing drugs, and not being able to hang around your friends you have know since 2nd grade,
then you can complain about being lonely.

I guess I'm a little late to join this thread...

The entire mate situation didn't work out too well for me last year, but my best friend who is a year above me looked into his mirror on the first day of sophomore year, nodded confidently, and said to himself, "This is the year all the freshmen girls go after me."

It worked.

So, on the first day of my sophomore year, which is coming up in two weeks, I'm going to look into my mirror, nod confidently, and say to myself, "This is the year all the freshmen girls go after me."

I'm just praying that the mirror doesn't crack after that...:)
