Sophie asks :

This is quite an embarrassing thing to admit but i am 18 years old and have never been kissed. I have never had a boyfriend and am begining to think that i am just completely undesirable. I wouldnt consider myself bad looking and i am quite a nice person, but every time i go out with my friends it seems that everyone is more interested in them then me. What can i do to make people notice me?

Yin replies

Different people have relationships with people at different times in their lives, and so I wouldn't worry about it too much. Your main priority at 18 should be having fun!

Go out and have a good time with your mates and things will fall into place naturally. The more that you think about it, the more that it will bother you and the more that it will play on your mind.

Be yourself, and when the right person comes along, they will notice you without you changing yourself.

Yang replies

Do you know what puts the majority of people off starting a relationship with someone? Insecurity. The last thing that a man wants when he is looking for a potential partner is someone who is very unconfident, as it makes you undesirable.

Being confident makes you come across completely different than when you "cower in a corner". If you don't see your flaws, others won't notice them half as much.

And if a man sees you to be having a good time and up for a laugh, what could possibly make him say no?!
