Hey man I'm 12 too a few girls stare at me in class as well (not many girls in my class so...yeah...). But in my opinion you don't want a girlfriend you want a person of the oposite gender to talk to. I have a good good friend who's a girl I like her a lot but I like our friendship and I do not believe its time to express how i feel.

You don't need a girlfriend you need a "girl friend" some one to talk to differently then others.

I speak with my guys all the time we just mostly talk about TV or Halo 3 and such.

I talk to her about different things like person things.

I believe its okay for you to get a girlfriend but seriously consider what your doing. You and I are around the age of puberty and a lot of things are on our minds. So before you set your self up for heart break think with your head (not your pants) For anyone wonder I am one f**Ked up kid who to teach a few lessons.

q1605 reminds me of Sawyer from Lost! Great attitude that makes me laugh and endlessly reminds me of arrogant men that are very attractive!

I think at 12 you do need to play the field. Being humourous and popular is very attractive to some girls - mean,dark and moody to others. Also manly pursuits such as sport or being higly intelligent is also appealing. My son is 12 and he too yearns for a girlfriend. He doesn't have one but almost tries too hard to get one by always being the funniest or the coolest guy and always trying to attract their attention. If you are good looking and cool as Diovanlestat says, the wink is a good one as it makes the girl think about what you have done and why you are doing it to them only and makes them feel special. When I was young I used to like to get notes passed around the classroom with special messages as well

You are obviously a good looking boy or the girls wouldn't be staring so I don't think you are going to have too much trouble. Most women like men to either fall into the aloof more silent type or the sporty college hero type. See which one you are and develop your own style.

Ok q1605 is stupid. Of course you aren't going to find the love of your life at 12 but please keep it in your pants. A woman when you get a little older will really love losing her virginity to you and getting yours in return when the two of you are inlove. My boyfriend and I lost our viginities to eachother and almost four years later we consider it to be one of the most special and intimate things ever. Not to mention rare.

As far as attracting a girl just have the guts to walk up to them and say hi and start a random conversation. That is what my fiance did and for weeks after before we started dating he was all i could think about because most boys now are to scared to do anything themselves. Also I'm only 19 so I'm not that far out of your generation. Just be nice and word will get around!

sofiamorgan agony auntBecome friends with girls, be yourself when your around them. You will get to know them better and things will naturally progress from there.

However there is no rush to get into the dating game you have years ahead of you, to find a nice girl....also remember that girls often have the same worries about finding a guy!

Good luck!

q1605 agony auntI've got five words for a gentleman of your age and caliber. Hit it and quit it. There is no need to be tying yourself down to any one girl until you are at least fifteen. Use this time to play the field and find out what kind of woman suits you. Then when you are a little more mature you can make an informed choice on who will receive the lion's share of your attention

A reader, anonymous, writes (12 June 2008):

You could try the "wink". This only works for the most cool guys, and you need to fairly popular for this to work, otherwise you look like a real fool. If a couple of girls are looking at you, and they're showing interest, then your probably very good looking. Give them a small wink, it'll look great and it will make them feel special. However only use this techinque if your very attractive and girls are alreadly looking and flirting with you.

Tisha-1 agony auntHi, I think your best bet is to treat any girl you meet as if she were simply a friend. Then you can get to know her well, like you know your guy friends. Everyone likes to be treated nicely, and have someone to talk with about all kinds of stuff. The rest will follow. Don't worry, there's lots of time for girlfriends! It will happen naturally, just remember that girls are people too, with the same worries and concerns as boys.

Good luck!

Tremor agony auntAh, the mystery that is women. It's even more confusing when you're 12.

The best thing you can do to attract a lass is to be yourself. Don't try and be cool or macho or show off - it's not attractive.

Don't go trying to get a girl just for the sake of it. There's no hurry. Wait until you find a girl who you really like. Talk to her for a week or two, get to know her, be friendly. Then, if you're feelin' it, ask her out - take her to amovie or something.

But as I said, there's no hurry. You're only 12, you've got years and years and years of dating drama to come. No use bringing it on too soon. =)

Good luck to you.
