Hey everyone! Thanks to those who answered my other question but I've got another one...

so I've never had a boyfriend who was my age. Okay so I've only had a boyfriend that was 18.. and I'm 15. I always attract people who are 18-26 but never people around my age... I mean I kind of want a boyfriend or whatever but I'm not really going to go out of my way to get one... I kind of just want to be kissed already... but I dont want to be kissed by a 22 year old or something... too weird right now.

So I guess here's my question(s)... Since I get guys who are so much older than me to flirt and talk with me then why can't I get a guy who's 15-17?

Not that I would change for any guy (lol thats not the way I roll don't worry) but I was also wondering, what do guys around my age look for in girls that so different than what they look for when they're older?

Help?

Thanks guys =]

A female reader, PsyCookie United States +, writes (21 July 2008):

PsyCookie agony auntAre you told that you're more mature than your age? Or that you look like you are? Or has anyone used the word "mature" to describe you?

If the answers are "yes", this is probably why you are attracted to older guys and why they might be attracted to you.

Guys at your age would probably not be attracted to you if you're more mature than your age because they would think of you as either motherly or that you would boss them around. Some of them will becuase they know that you will stay around and will have a better long-term relationship with you. Most guys at your age would look for around the same things older guys would look for in a girl.

Good personality. Good looks (optional but more likely for guys your age). Intelligent. Have a good sense of humor. Compatability. Good body (more likely for guys your age).

One of the few differences from guys your age is that they might not want to have a long-term relationship. I'm not saying all of them do, but a big majority only want a short-term girlfriend. Also, most guys at that age would likely want to start a sexual relationship before you get to know him. Now, older guys who go out girls at your age will likely want the same thing, so just be aware. Guys at your age also tend to ignore important things in a girl, like personality and focus in more shallow things like looks. Like I said before, they would want to bed you before they get to know you.

Now, I'm not saying that guys your age are bad, but a lot of them are immature (also many girls your age are immature, that "girls mature faster than boys" thing is just silly and incorrect). Also, guys who are older but want a relationship with you should be watched because they would not really take you seriously unless you show yourself as mature. The same here goes with guys your age.

I hope I helped here a bit.
