Low self-esteem?...help!?
Could I be turning them down because of my parents? They keep telling me not to end up like my older sister (21 with 2 kids).
Update:Okay, I just turned 17 and I've never had a boyfriend. Yeah, I know, lame, right? Anywho, the problem isn't that I don't get offers...it's just that I turn them down. Even the cute ones...I guess I'm afraid that I won't be a "good" girlfriend because of my lack of experience plus with my past (relentless taunting) but that all stopped when puberty came into play. So what do I do?
No, I'm not a lesbian if that's what you're thinking...I just don't know what to do. I know I have low self-esteem, that's obvious, my aunt (a christian) even gave me a book on "The Spirit of Rejection" I just feel so...alone. I really need help, what do I do to raise my esteem? Why do I keep saying no to having a boyfriend?

You keep saying no because you probably fear rejection.. plus u were taunted as a kid.. and so subconciously. you saying no to the cute ones is almost like payback.
Honestly speaking.. take a chance. You're so young and there's so much to life for you. Your sister may have 2 kids at 21.. that doesn't mean you gotta go the same route. You live and you learn by what is shown by others.
well im sixteen never been kiss , no boyfreinds , but i crush ask me out last week and i was deseperated but just wait and it will come ,
dont depressed yourself like this is not good for the apparence if you want to find a boy
