Unfortunately, my self-esteem is practically non-existant. Could this be preventing me from having a boyfriend? I know that I certainly lack confidence in myself. Please help!

 hi
have you thought about why your self esteem is so low? finding that out that may help you to overcome feeling down on yourself.
if you are intelligent that is a bonus and it may help to find someone who has similar interests to you.
what is important is how you feel inside.
having a boyfriend does seem important at your age to fit in with the rest.
you have loads of time ahead of you to workon that one..think about making friendsips first and making yourself feel confident first before taking on a boy...
many regards

You might feel like you are missing out but with relationships also come heartache and pain. Your self-esteem will grow as you mature so enjoy what you have now without feeling like you are lacking in something because you're not, you're perfectly normal.

 You are still very young, you have got all the time in the world to meet someone. As you mature and reach 17 18 19 you will change alot, and you self esteem and confidence will grow with you.
Enjoy being young, have fun with you mates, and don't stress to much about not having a boyfriend at this time, it will happen, most likely when you least expect it.
Good luck x
