Dear Dish-It, Will I Ever Have a Chance?

Teen Dating Tips

Dear Dish-It, is here to whisper "ttyl after I've thought about this some more".

Dear Dish-It,

I consider myself a nice guy and even though I don't really want a girlfriend, I feel that I am a better person than most guys. A lot of nice girls go out with guys that treat them like dirt and they just seem to go along with it even though they deserve better. My question is - will they ever notice me? Will I ever have a chance?

Dear mrsocks,

You know that saying, "Nice guys always finish last,"? Well, although it's not entirely true, it's also not entirely wrong. When you're in high school, girls and guys are trying desperately to figure out the whole dating thing. Most of the time, peeps end up dating the wrong person, but that's sort of part of the process. I don't know why girls are drawn to jerks - there are probably a million explanations since each situation is unique. One reason girls end up with those unworthy guys is because they're the ones that get out there and ask girls out. You are never going to have a chance with the ladies if you aren't willing to stick your neck out and let that special girl know how you feel. Sound scary? It is. But, there is definitely someone out there for everyone (even Ozzy Osbourne found true love). So, while you may not get the results you are looking for in the love department right away, girls are going to notice you eventually. So hang in there, and just let those other jerks race ahead of you, cuz in the long run, you'll be the one to find true love.

So, ya gotta burnin' question? Need some love directions? Thinkin' 'bout stuff like depression, sex,how ya feel 'bout YOURSELF (that's called "self-esteem"), boyfriends, girlfriends, losin' old friends, bullyin' or peer pressure, but too scared to ask the parents? Don't be scared to Dish-It here. But 'member, if ya hang out in Chat with other Kidzworld members who know ya by your 'username', ya might wanna use a secret nickname when ya write in. That way no one'll ever know it's you. And, just in case ya don't know, Dish-It gets a lotta letters everyday, and she can't answer 'em all. So keep checkin' the column cuz she's prob'ly answerin' somethin' very similar to your question while you're out doin' somethin' else. K? And Thanks! Ya keep her outta trouble. Oh! And if ya've got words of wisdom you wanna share,We'll dish 'em up, too.
