i feel depressed about life pretty much i don't know . its like i dislike myself but i do like myself. i don't have any friends well some but i wouldn't call them real friends if i don't hang out with them out of school. if 15 and i know you might be thinking i cant be really depressed but i really mature and i feel like i don't belong. I'm also love depressed. i want so many girls but a few that i really want but they all seem interested in other guys. it sucks because i think about not having a girlfriend every day. i hate it, i just want love. i guess I'm desperate but not really because i wouldn't go out with just anyone. i need help to get out of this dark hole of depression and maybe a little advice on how to get a girlfriend and how not to be shy. if you have some advice or tips just go for it but if your here to make fun of me then i wont even bother messaging back.

" Well, I'm a girl and personally, I notice the guys who are either funny and nice, or smart and witty. Being shy isn't a bad trait but it's hard for people to know who you are just by being in the same room as you so it'll be harder to create a relationship with someone whom you've just met. With the friend situation, I've been there and I've gotten out, and I've been in it again, and right now I'm going through friend troubles. I've decided a couple of weeks ago that I would not mope around and hate myself because that won't do anything. Honestly, you've probably heard this before but stay positive, it REALLY does make you happy and energetic. And maybe being happy would lead you to being more friendly which can help you to make new friends or become closer with those you already are friends with. I'm 15 too and I can related to a lot of problems so if you ever need anything you can message me :) "

" Dude, I have gone through the exact same problems as you have and am still going through some of them too. I got bullied through out middle school and that caused me to go into my own little ball and become very shy. The only people I really trust are the people who listen to me and compliment me. I struggle finding true friends, and all the ones I do have, are female and in relationships or have moved away so I can't hang with them. One thing I know that can help you which I found out after I gradded, was that it helps to be more social. Even if it's just saying hi to someone, it's a start and girls will notice. Also, just try to relax and have some fun. People notice that and get drawn to you. Feel free to add me and we can discuss this some more if you want. I'm happy to pass on any knowledge to someone in the same boat as me. Good luck dude. "

" Kids have the highest rate of depression. There's nothing wrong with you, I know sometimes it may seem that way because you don't have friends after school. Girls like it when you act confident and like you want them and only them not any girl because your lonely. They can sence that. They also don't want the guy to get too attached at 15, girls change boyfriends so fast at that age. "

" Well, Anskater, I am going through the EXACT same thing as you, only I'm 19. I had a boyfriend of 2 1/2 years and when he broke up with me is when this all started. I want love again, but not sure if it is possible. First piece of advice? You are SO young, you are only 15. You have PLENTY of time to find it, so do not stress about it. Second advice? When you are not looking for it, is when it comes. Just RELAX, have fun! :) Help on finding a girlfriend? Being confident is the (in my opinion) sexiest thing a man can have. (however, remember there is a difference between cocky and confident!) What's the worse a girl could say? No? If they do, just keep thinking you'll find better! "
