Its like everyone is paired up. Walk down the ONE hall in my school, and you'll see at least 6 or 7 couples. I've only had 1 boyfriend, and he broke up with me after 7 months..I liked him A LOT, until I found out he only went out with me because of a bet he lost. He had to go out with me for 5 months, but he said he stuck around 2 extra months because he felt bad. People tell me I'm pretty all the time, and I'm extremely social and friendly. I have no problem talking to guys its just I can't seem to make one like me. I know you can't MAKE someone like you but..Its just that I'm tired of being the only girl without a boyfriend, I feel so left out when I walk down the halls alone. Could you try to give me tips or anything that will help me get a boyfriend?

 I think the best thing to do is to stop looking for one and wanting one! When I was 15, I wanted a boyfriend so badly because all my friends had one. After months of wishing I had a boyfriend, I got tired of thinking about it and pretty much gave up. I just concentrated on my school work, hung out with friends and stopped caring about boys. A couple of weeks later a really cute guy a couple of years older than me at school asked me out!
It really is true that as soon as you stop looking for a boyfriend one will come along! The guy that asked me out told me that he had seen me around school for a few months but didnt know how to speak to me or tell me that he liked me so he left it for months! There are probably loads of guys at your school who like you but are too scared to tell you! Be patient and your time will come!
Just be yourself, dont make yourself look too pretty at school (sounds weird but too much make up, perfume, crazy hair etc will put a guy off!). Natural beauty is the best and then when you get asked out on a date you can make yourself look really special! Stop looking so much and try not to think about it and then a lovely guy will come your way!
Good luck!

i Know how frustrating it must seem being one of the only single ones. been there, done that. but there isnt really much you can do, other than go out to maybe new places, seem approachable, give a few smiles to any good looking guys you see ;) and take it from there. it really isnt the end of the world if you haven't got a bf yet, i was single for nearly 3 years but now i've found a lovely bf. the reality is, most of them couples you see at school most probably wont be together in time to come, whereas you may be with someone by then and they will be single so it works both ways really. you wont be single forever and i'm sure you know that! so dont worry about it, these things come naturally in their own time x

 okay, you see 6 or 7 couples, now look around and look at all the other people who arent with anyone, who're just chillin with friends in other places etc. and realize you aren't so alone, your previous boyfriend played your feelings and was an asshole in that he lead you onto thinking he loved you, and 15? I know you just said adults say you have plenty of time, but 15 is freshman/sophomore, i'm a senior myself and let me just say a LOT of things can change in a year or two, just give yourself time and stay yourself, one thing you might want to check up on is your "approachability" because hey, most guys are scared witless of approaching a pretty, nice girl, or they assume she's already taken and don't bother trying, either one could be an issue for you, just say hi to guys and try to start convos with them, be more "approachable" as i said and see where that takes yougood luck
