Does your flirting drive boys away?


 

Check these out, too...

  • Is there a way to flirt without being obvious?
  • Puppy love? Puh-lease
None of my boyfriends ever take me seriously or trust me because I’m a “big flirt.” What should I do?


Dear Flirt,

Should you tone down the flirting? Being overly flirtatious can get you a reputation and put off the guy you like most. Actions have consequences, so figure out how you can have fun flirting a little—without giving guys mixed signals.

I like this guy at my school and he used to like me. Now he likes some other girl because she's white and blonde. (Which is really dumb. You should like someone because you enjoy them) and I kinda still like him. But I don't want myself to like him He cheated on me and ditched our date three times! But still, part of me still like him. And I don't like it! Please help me.

Hey girl, based on your past experience with this guy, it sounds wise to try to not like him.  Cheating and ditching are not cool.  Decide to move on and there might just be another cutie around the corner.  In the meantime, check out this fun single girls playlist.

So for the most part im a pretty quiet girl. I don't mind it too much, but i want to start talking to people more, eccspecially guys.some of my friends are kinda teasing me about this and it's begun to get on my nerves. What are some ways to 1)start branching out and talking more and 2) start talking to new people? Thanks!

 

Hey girlie, you just have to be brave and confident and do it! If you want to do it badly enough, you'll make it work. You have to fake it until you make it so even if you're not feeling so confident about starting a conversation with a new person, if you act like you are you'll get more comfortable with it over time and no one will know you're shy.

So I told my crush that I liked him in October, and he acted a bit like a jerk. He was like "Yeah, I kinda thought so". It was really awkward. I said "Well sorry if this is awkward. See you next week" and I walked away. After the embarrassment, I get a Facebook message from him saying that he's sorry. He asked if he could text me, and he gave me his number. The next day, he had his bff reject me for him. I was heartbroken. Now, I see him tomorrow at karate. I just started this fighting competition thing, and whenever I see my ex-crush, I get nervous and my kick becomes weaker. My ex-crush is a higher belt that I am, so I'm kind of intimidated by him. How can I stop the nervousness? I want to show him that I'm not just a girly girl and that he should watch out! I'm normally a really strong kicker, but when it comes to him, I stop being confident. Thanks Smile

 

Hey girlie, do whatever you have to do to block him out. Focus on yourself and your kicking and pretend he isn't there. You need to try to forget about him. You can't let him continue to have a negative impact on your life.

So I asked this guy to a dance with some candy to go as friends. But he was very polite and said he couldn't because he said he had something going on. He is a really nice guy. But now i wonder should I ask someone else because I told him to keep the candy anyway but would it be weird to ask someone else and not have anything to give that person because what if he doesn't say yes ( the other guy)?

 

Hey girlie, go ahead and ask someone else as long as this guy is a definite no. You don't need to give a guy something to ask him to a dance. Just ask!

thanks Lauren T. do you think it could be because their growing?

 

Hey girlie, it's possible, but it sounds more likely that something is irritating them. But just because the pain probably isn't associated with it, it doesn't mean that they're not growing.
