I don't know how to get a boyfriend

[Guest]

I'm 28 and have been single for all my life bar a short relationship when I was 24. I dream of meeting a lovely guy but it never happens.

I'm quite an outgoing girl - I'm very interested in dance and drama and often perform in shows - but I have never met a guy this way.

I'm just stuck on what to do to meet men. I'm not someone who's indoors all the time. I go out 4 or 5 nights a week. I have plenty of friends and go to parties and nights out.

But nothing ever happens. I'd love guys to come and chat me up or to ask me up. But the only guys I come across either just want to friends (already have a girfriend or are not interested) or are just after sex.

My mum says there must be guys out there looking for a girlfriend but I don't ever seem to meet them. People say I'm attractive - I have a pretty face and am nice and slim so why don't guys ask me out? I can't believe all men in their 20s and 30s are taken.

Hi Guest,

Not all guys are taken. Im kind of in the same position as you. People look at peole when who are in there 20s and single as if we are mad. You seem to be doing the right things with going out etc. To set the record straight I get aproached by women that just want sex which just leaves you feeling cheap. I want to get away from that and be like 'normal people' with a partner that likes me for me. Im always told being told that there is someone out there for me but still waiting for miss right.

waiting for soemthing to happen isn't the same as making things happen, have you chatted them up yet? perhaps you need to move out of your circle of friends and meet other people? perhaps you've got to accept a romantic chat up isn't going to happen and you've got to aim more effectively and do some internet dating? perhaps you're just too foxy (and I am being serious here) and blokes are scared to chat you up?

Go to your church or a museum.
