Answer 1

Perhaps joining a Toastmasters Group might help.

With more confidence and better presentation skills you will be more successful, relaxed and happy in the world.

Answer 2

I think you answered your own question.  The boy has to accept you for what you are.  You don't have to do anything to prep yourself.  Do not, DO NOT, try to change yourself in order to gain acceptance from someone else.  Don't measure your worth by someone else's yardstick.  You are who you are.  If you don't realize that yet, then don't get a boyfriend.  Get a boy who can be your friend, then the rest will follow.

Answer 3

Every time you look in the mirror say loving things to yourself. say, "I love me" or "I love you", over and over. Notice how you change as you look in the mirror.

Answer 4

a guy will simply come to you, you dont need to 'prep' yourself. i know some guy out there will want you for who you are, and before u know it, ull be less self concious and just be happy that you are with the one you love.
