Britt,
I am sorry you feel bad about this. Prolly nothing we say will change that, but I hope it helps a little bit. Think of ALL the things in this world that you have going for you. Take them ALL away, and in that HUGE empty space, put a boyfriend. Take away your family, your schooling, your pets, your girlfriends, the fun things you like to do, your health, your faith, take it all away. Now, put a boyfriend right there in the middle of it. I don't think you would find yourself very happy or satisfied with the trade, would you? It only 'hurts' now because it is ONE of the things you don't have right now....and really, it is a blessing in disguise.

Ramanth is right. MOST boys have one thing on their minds right now, and it is NOT your best interest, your happiness, your life, your goals/dreams. It is a pretty rare 'relationship' that makes it longer than 3 months at the age you are right now. Figure you are just sparing yourself the heartache, drama, gossip, etc.

Smile when your girlfriends make comments, ignore them, leave the topic alone. IF they are serious, and not just teasing you, you need to find new girlfriends. Be there when their life turns upside down because some immature 14 year old little boy breaks their heart cause he thought so and so was 'cuter'....find other things to focus on..cause no matter whatelse you find to focus on, I KNOW it will be more important, meaningful, worthwhile, better for you than a boy friend right now can ever be.
Hugs...
