Guys like me.
They approach me. They tell me. They think I am nice, and cool, and what not… and then comes the most dreadful the most frightening question! ‘so what do you think about me?’ and I go blank!!!
I have had a long distance relationship, with a confused guy, and it lasted only a few months. That was my first relationship. Then with an older man, which lasted for about 4 months, since he was a complete a-hole! Verbally and physically abusive and not loyal at all!
After those two experiences (not that I was any better before) I have really become cynical about guys… but I do feel lonely sometimes… I wish I could like someone and be able to tell them that. I am not so good at ‘flirting’ so its sort of a turn off, since I cant communicate my liking of the person…
I feel like I’ll end up an old maid! Help anyone?

Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
The ‘right one’ will come along someday. You have a lifetime ahead of you. Focus on your life and it will happen
but how do i know im not turning the right one away?!
there has been great guys that have expressed their feelings… but i just disconnect myself from them, and then regret it! =(
You will know when it is the right one b/c you WON’T want to turn him away
How long do you ‘regret it?’
Unless it’s for 3 months or more, they weren’t the ‘right’ one
there will be someone eventually. might I ask your age?
you seem very young to be so worried about such things. the best and easiest thing to do i be yourself.
when the guys ask what you think of them, you should try to say something nice, but not too nice (unless you like them)
if you have trouble with coming up with stuff just say stuff like “you are nice” or something
you will know when the right one comes, because when he asks what you think of him, you will have your own solid answer that you will truley know
i’m 22… and everyone i know is either in a serious relationship, engaged, or just married… which makes me feel like a loner… and a loser…
i am the same way except that I am 16. all of my friends are dating even the ones we used to joke together about being “hopeless”
just keep on the state of mind that they are going too fast and you want the right one, not just anyone
trust me, I have seen some pretty bad losers and you are not a loser.
maybe a loner for now. but when you meet the right one, it will all be allright

You a girl, right?
You know why I asked?
Because it sounded like what a lot of guys would say…
Dont get me wrong, I feel what you posted though. How much older was the jerk?
hmmm still dont understand… but the guy was about 12 yrs older… or so he said.. lol

Dont worry about it.
BTW
To me, a guy asking ‘so what do you think about me?’ to a girl he’s attracted to means he’s somewhat insecure.
I personally never ask that.
And Anon,
You will find someone, you are still very young.
well i wasnt really… but what do you mean by ” it sounded like what a lot of guys would say”
lol
but i dont think he’d ask that cuz he’s insecure, but i think he’d ask that if he’s serious and cares enough to find out.

Maybe. But isnt that like seeking approval from you?

won’t he need my approval in order to be in a relationship? lol
he’ll obviously want to know if i like him too!
i wasnt really worried, but since you said that it made me wonder…
