 When I was your age I didn't have a boyfriend either, and I'm thin as a stick. People thought I was anorectic. Now, I can't read your size (I think in cm and kg), but I know it isn't looks that determine whether you get a boyfriend or not. I changed how I approached others, and started becoming more outgoing, but still looking like my extremely skinny self... yet once I started being more outgoing I got attention from guys. Still didn't get a proper boyfriend until I was 18, but when I changed my attitude towards people I got a lot more male attention.
Make yourself approachable. Talk, laugh, smile, initiate contact and talk to guys first. Try to talk about something they are interested in. Guys are just as shy as girls.

 Your weight is not the problem girls of all shapes and sizes have guys interested in them but like the lady said before me you have to be comfortable and confident in the way you look no matter what your weight because thats what guys notice. Confidence. If you think you look hott so will the boys. And also it might be cliche to say but personality makes a big difference its usually the looks that get the boys interested but its the personality that keeps them:) Be the best you can be;)

 It shouldn't be as only shallow guys care about physical appearence. If you're not happy with yourself, this probably reflects outwardly and can put off guys. If you learn to love yourself the way you are, and are confident in your own skin, you will attract guys ^_^ I'm about your size i think (haven't weighed myself in years though) and I've not had any problems with guys :)
