How can i raise my self esteem?

Question

im 15 and never had a boyfriend. im a tomboy, and i love basketball. all of my friends have had boyfriends except me and its taken a toll on my self esteem. i dont think im very pretty and boys never flirt with me, and i never get their attention as more than a friend. how can i raise my self esteem and feel better about my self? have any of you ever been in this situation?

Answer 1

I think every girl goes through her tomboy stage. Try having a little spa day. Get a massage, get your nails done, get your hair done, get your makeup done- all that good stuff. At the end of the day, you'll feel good about yourself. Buy some new clothes to go along with your new hair. And maybe you'll like your new look so much, you'll stick with it.

Pamper yourself, you deserve it :)

Besides, all that makeup and c**p doesn't wear well without confidence. Go with your mom, or your aunt. Have a girls day!

Answer 2

Try to raise your confidence level by focusing on your positives. such as continuing to play basketball and being good at it. try to act like its your choice that you dont have a boyfriend bc ultimately it is. now if you want to attract the boys' attention, try taking tips from your friends such as maybe doing your hair or having a little more pride in your apperance even if you are a tomboy you can wear cute clothes that make you feel comfortable. if you flirt a little im sure they will flirt back. try it and good luck.
