Okay, i actually have a proper fear. I am terrified of being alone. Like of not finding someone who likes me, for me. i'm terrified of not falling in love. Of just going threw my life on my own, with people continuously saying "you'll find someone"..."there's someone out there for everyone". But what if there's not? Alright, to get things straight, I am only 16. I know, already loads of you are like "oh god you're only 16, you have loads of time" and all this shite, and i know okay? But seriously! i have two best friends ok? And I love them to bits, they are my life. They are pretty and gorgous and all of the above. They are always talking to guys, and they always tell me about guys they liked or guys that like them and whatever. they tell me about guys they meet up with, go to the cinema, meet up in town, whatever! And, i want to be happy for them, I do, but I can't . Yes, I tell them that I am happy and act with like like any best friend does, but I just can't anymore. I know loads of girls kid around about being "forever alone" and whatever, and a lot of them think it. But i'm honestly scared, I'm terrified. I'm going to college next year. In my head I always think of people I know in college already, friends like. And I see people I know who would never been with a guy or girl or had a boyfriend or girlfriend in secondary school (okay I'm from Ireland, so I think it's the equivalent of highschool ? I don't know really) and I think, yeah that's me. I think oh college guys are not as judgemental with looks and body image. But what if they're not? college guys are just secoundary school boys one year older, right ? Ugh I don't know. But at the rate I'm going now it's shite. I know of girls my age who have been with their boyfriends for 3 or 4 years! My sister and brother both have a boyfriend and girlfriend. And i'm just here like, yeah, I suck. So yeah, If you want to comment or whatever go ahead. if you think I'm a tool, let me know. If you think I'm stupid, let me know. I don't really mind really what yee say. But I will read it!

    Yeah, you are only 16 and in HIGH SCHOOL! I never had a bf in high school. All of my friends did, and non of them are with that person now. And it sucks a bit, but then you go to college and meet a whole bunch of different people who have matured since high school, because that does happen. Especially by junior or senior year. Also you will probably meet more people who share your interest and aren't just in your class because you happen to live in the same school district. AND, college is just more fun in general. Thinking about the boys I had crushes on in high school and what they are doing now (which is generally not all that impressive) makes me super ok with not dating them in the past. I am also pretty sure that if me and my current bf had met in high school, I probably wouldn't have dated him then, since we are both very different people now (I met him after college). So my advice is to enjoy being 16 and don't worry about being single! It's not so bad, and there are better things in life to put energy into. Things will even out in your 20s if not sooner.
