not sure what your question is exactly, but trust me, you are still very young. everything seems all crazy at that age, i know, but everything changes as you get older and i can tell you that love definitely does exist and it'll find you when the time is right. until then, try to enjoy all the other things that are SO GREAT about being young!!! because, not to sound like your parents or anything, but once you are older, and you find someone to love, you will wish you hadn't wasted so much energy on it when you were 17! HAVE FUN!!!!

I'm not saying I have all the answers, but it is pretty humiliating when someone doesn't want you. You're afraid of falling in love again; ok, you've been in love. Has anybody told you they love you, or has it been all theoretical and one-sided so far? You're afraid of love; have you been loved, manipulated, used or just misunderstood? How have you been hurt? These are questions you need to determine before you can decide what to do next. I'd say talk to a counsellor. Figure out what actually happened, what you want to do eventually, and what you can try next to achieve your goals. If you are still nervous after that, try to work your way up to it gradually. Start with just caring about people, maybe neighbors, children, the elderly. Do you know anybody in need? There are many ways to express love. Are you looking for a tender, warm caring love, or a rough, wild, sensual love? We all need various things from the ones we love at different times. Some people express love by sharing, some by providing, some by giving gifts or surprises, some by being romantic, some by being reliable, some by challenging their loved one to excell. Try to meet up with the pople who are looking for the same thing(s) you are. Good luck!

Truthfully, you are never truly alone, unless you believe you are truly alone.  The mind has a powerful trick over the heart.  Just don't give in to the sense that you are alone.  Look around, and find people to talk to.  I know you will overcome this sense of alone-ness. I went through the same thing.  Just trust yourself, and what you believe in.  You'll always come out on top of your problems if you just try.  Trust me.\n\nI wish you the best of luck.  Don't let the feeling of alone-ness get to you.  The worst of things can, and will happen if you do let the alone feeling in to your heart.

You say you think you have never been loved and think you will never find it. Not to answer your question with a question but if you could receive love from someone what do you think it would be like?  What does love mean to you or what do you want love to mean to you? Does it mean you feel cared for, accepted, respected and appreciated? If it does than you can give love and maybe some day you will receive it but you need to be here to find this out.  Life might seem crappy at times, I've been there myself, but your life is like a story, but if you leave too soon you may never know how good the story could have been.  You never know who might enter your life that will change it in a wonderful way. Hang in there, i think love will find you.

Don't look for love, it'll come to you. Everytime you go out looking for love it always ends up in bad news. Just be open to new friends and love will sweep you away. BE PATIENT

Be careful, be very careful.  Because if what you are feeling is not love, then you have lost a friend.  On the other hand if what you are feeling is love and you don't act on it then you will have a lost an opportunity of a lifetime.  Go with your heart, you know what's in it better than we do.  Whatever you do, we are here to support you.

I don't think I've ever felt loved by anyone, I've given up on it. I think in the world we live in presently loves is quickly becoming a lost feeling.

there's nothing wrong to be in-love at age 17, but that is immature love,  you must remember, that's not true love because Love is - Unconditional love; the kind of love God gives. A deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.\n\nyou know girl I'm married at age 19, at age of 17 i in gage at premarital sex where in i though i feel in-love with the guy whom i gave my self. lately i realize that is not a true love, and that's feeling of mine at that age is an infatuation. you know girl until now I'm turning to 24, married and have 2 kids but still i can't say that my feeling ( I've been feel is true love) until now my feelings i **** to my husband that i taught "love". you know girl at age of 17 the love you say is not true, an immature feelings an infatuation, believe me. \n\ngood luck girl..   :-)

I felt the same way for a long long time, and I still feel that way sometimes. People really are there for you though, you just don't see it. If you were to need them they would be there, they just don't know that you need them now. Talk to someone about it. Anyone you trust. Just ask them if you can talk to them alone and explain that you feel like no one cares. It can be a sign of something serious like depression so be careful and know when it's gone too far. People do care, and they're all over. You just don't realize it when they're not right there beside you.

i guess u know when ur in love when all u do is think about that person and the minute ur away from their side u can't do nothing but think about that person or maybe u just feel it in ur heart! and it's a right time for anything if u believe and feel that its love. don't just sit back and let love past u bye because u think ur to young for love or just not ready cause u could be giving up ur chance of findin true love or maybe ur not and if u love that person then i guess they is the right person because love doesn't come with a name on it but if u feel or know u love this person go for it it doesn't hurt to try and if their not right person then try again cause that person is out there somewhere u just have to be pacient and let love find u because good come to those who wait!

I guess I am mature enough. Understand your feeling are very natural for your ages. There are hormones that give you those feelings. Know that. Next decide how you want to deal with these feelings in your life-use your mind-pay no attention to the feelings. Do you want to cross your parents? Do you want a relationship with this boy? (remember he will act on his feelings-because most boys-enjoy the acting out with little problems in there life). Do you feel you have the time to give to a relationship? Are you studies important (they effect your whole live-girl)? Of Course you think about him-Its not because you have shared times together-but because of hormonal feelings. And yes he will move on --he is young and so are you. My advise-wait-get busy-volunteer (hospital-animal shelter-anything)-join a club or church-do things to get busy. And see if you can get busy with something that you love or will help you later. Waiting may seem long-but its not and your day will come.

You're only fifteen? Girl, you don't even know the meaning of love. Just enjoy life and have guy friends. Eventually, you're going to find someone that loves you and you are head over heels about them. You're trying to grow up too fast. Trust me, enjoy your life and don't try to committ yourself now. 'Cause when you committ, it isn't all roses, you have to deal with the good and the bad. Stay away from those problems as long as you can.

I'm 17 and I had never had a girlfriend. Sometimes I feel that I need to share with someone but when I analise the ending of my friends' relationships I feel it's OK to take the time to choose.

OK.. you confuse me... lonely? Ok Ok! Sometimes its good to be on your own, find out who you really are. Its always good to get back to your roots and the reason you feel lonely is because your not yourself. Remember... You dont need anyone to make you happy. Once you are happy and whole... Then youll stop being lonely and be able to make others happy and whole aswell. Take care. Heidi

Ya wanna hear something goofy? When I was a teenager, I felt just like you! I would wish to god I was a Siamese twin, just so I wouldn't feel so alone. It is hard to explain, I wasn't really lonely cause I had lots of friends and people who loved me, it's more a feeling that all of them and the whole human race belonged to this,(something) what ever it was except me! I could be in a room full of people yet feel all alone. Then one day I started asking myself: WHAT DO I WANT? As I lay in my dark bed   crying myself to sleep, I would ask: WHAT DO I WANT RIGHT NOW? WHAT WOULD MAKE ME FEEL AND FILL THE VOID IN ME? Perhaps something that would make me a part of something! Well I don't really know what to tell you except I volunteered for a suicide hot line, I served underprivileged children dinners, I  worked at a mission, helping the homeless, I sat with the elderly etc. and as time passed, the awful feeling of being alone gradually went away! That was quite a few years ago and I haven't felt that way since. I don't know what happened, but what ever it was, it sure worked for me. Maybe it will work for you too! Good Luck!
