Dear Dish-It,
How do I get nice friends who talk to me every time I see them?

Dear SM,
It sounds like maybe you’re feeling a bit left out. That’s a really tough situation to be in – recess, lunchtime and after school can feel pretty lonely without some good friends to help pass the time. The thing about making new “nice” friends is it’s up to you to go ahead and take the first step …
Start by looking around your classroom — think about which kids you'd like to play with at recess. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile and be friendly. Offer to share something or give a compliment. Invite someone to play with you or say "Do you want to sit here?" in the lunchroom. When you're at recess, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly and say "Hi, can I play, too?" or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you're feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at match
I'm almost 17 and never been kissed. I have guy friends and I'm always myself around them. When I like a guy I flirt with him. I’m not unfortunate-looking. It just seems like every time I like a guy, he NEVER EVER likes me back.
I told my BFF that I liked this guy. She told him and he said he'd never go out with me and will never like me. Was he saying that because he does like me and doesn't want people to know or did he mean it?
