I know this isn’t what you want to hear, but at thirteen you shouldn’t have had a boyfriend yet. Take your time. Make friends with boys first. Get to know who you are. Get to know who they are and what you want in a boy. Don’t rush to get your heart broken the first time. It’ll come, but the longer you wait (within reason) the better the chance that your first relationship will be successful and happy. Those girls that are so far ahead of you will be even farther ahead in ten years. They’ll be the ones sitting at a table at the local fast food joint, talking on the cell phone about how their ex-husbands didn’t pay the child support on their two kids (with different dads) again. Their hearts will have been broken so many times that you’ll wonder if they have one anymore. They’ll be driving some old beater and living in a trailer. You will be just getting settled in a lasting relationship. Look around at your peers. I know it may seem like you are all roughly alike in school. Trust me, the prison population of the next twenty years is in school with you. The deadbeat dads and deadbeat moms of the future are sitting next to you. The bank president of the future is sitting in class with you. The funeral director who will bury your parents is somewhere in that room. Show them all respect, because some of them will be signing off on your mortgage some day. But don’t let the future ex-cons and future denizen’s of Jerry Springer side track you. With luck, maybe you’ll be the one signing off on your classmates car loan. - A splendid answer to a 13 year old’s “no boyfriend since birth” problem I’ve read in an online advice column.
