A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I was just wondering... When is the age when you're a little old to not have had any kind of relationship with a girl? I'm 16 I'm good looking (I get that a lot not making it up) I'm a regular person with a regular life (I'm not wierd or crazy LOL) but I've never so much as kissed a girl. It's gotten to the point that when girls find out they wonder what's wrong with me cause nothing about me implies that. I'm not shy, I ask girls out but it's always a no. I know people say don't worry it'll happen but my mentality about it is changing... I find myself less willing to try now because I see no point.

Everoth agony aunt I am 17 and I have never been on a date, never had a girlfriend etc. etc.

I know exactly where you are coming from and I know how you feel, what's the point right? I try and I try, there's nothing I can see thats wrong with me but there just to be something that holds me back that I can't find or change. Like some people have already said, they may just see you as a friend or you may just coming across those girls wrong. Also, 16-17 is a high school age, not everyone has a girlfriend and if you really truly and honestly think about it, plenty of guys your age havent been on a date/had a girlfriend as well. It just happens for some guys and not for others. My advice to you is to just keep meeting new people, girls who already know you tend to place you into the "friend zone" quicker than a girl you have just met because for this new girl you've got intrigue. Most of all, just don't stop trying, remember this, yea maybe you will fail 80%, 90% or even 99.9% of the time you try something, but you will fail 100% of the times you don't try and 0.1% success rate looks much better than a 0%.

Keep your head up and that grin on your face and you will get there.

Hey Relax.

Step outside your box. Perhaps, the girls you ask out are friends and view you as just the "Friend." The Friend zone is a dreadful place to be, but hey, step outside your box... Meet someone you did not know before... Who knows what will happen.

You may be coming across girls wrong. I'd suggest you do a google search...there are tons of articles on how to get girls better. Maybe you're just too nice, and not the "Bad boy" type? Don't feel so bad though. I'm 20 and have never had a girlfriend, but that's because I'm shy. Then again, I don't feel like wasting my time trying to get a girl to like me...they have to come to me first.
