    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    Women of all ages sometimes find themselves in a position where they are looking for a boyfriend. While having a relationship with the right guy can be a wonderful experience in a girl's or woman's life, finding him can be difficult as well as extremely frustrating. While there is no guarantee you'll find your perfect match, there are ways to increase your chances of finding a boyfriend.

    Where to Meet Boys or Men

    If you are in high school or college, you can rest assured that you have more potential chances to get a boyfriend than at any other time in your life. You just need to put yourself in a position to meet them. You can start by joining more activities at at school. Meet new friends and allow people to get to know you. This will also increase your chances of getting invited to more parties. Women in their 20s, 30s and beyond can join church groups, social clubs or professional organizations. You can join social networking sites like Facebook or MySpace, create a profile and search for a prospective boyfriend based on their profiles. If you find one who interests you, add him as a friend. Correspond by email and get to know him. Women over 18 can join online dating sites such as Match.com, eHarmony.com, Matchmaker.com, Singlesnet.com and many others.

    How to Get His Interest

    The worst thing you can do is appear desperate or overly aggressive while trying to meet boys or men. This reduces your self-worth from their perspective. Men like a bit of a challenge. Approach each social situation with a positive attitude. A negative attitude is also a big turnoff. Always be friendly but also be yourself. If you see someone across the room that interests you, glance his way until you make eye contact. Give him a little flirtatious smile, then turn away. Repeat this little subtle maneuver and see if he approaches you. Many boys and men are shy and need some encouragement. Once you have met someone, ask him questions and show interest in what he is saying. Do not talk only about yourself, and never talk about former boyfriends with someone you've just met.

    Accentuate Your Physical Attributes

    You do not have to be a supermodel to get a boyfriend. Like women, men have different taste as far as what they like in the opposite sex. Dress according to the nature of the social setting, and wear clothes and colors that accentuate your best physical traits. Use perfume sparingly, as some people are sensitive to it. Whiten your teeth, choose a flattering hairstyle and read "Cosmopolitan," "Glamour" or other magazines to get tips on using makeup, lipstick and eyeliner. First impressions are crucial in any potential relationship.

    Be Consistent in Your Efforts

    As with any endeavor, you have to consistently work at meeting guys, being a little flirtatious and accentuating your best physical traits. Have fun meeting different people and try not to get too caught up in one person too soon.

    I think the best way to get a boyfriend is to not be a boy. That way, half of the battle is won.

    The most important thing you can do to find a boyfriend is to look approachable. To so always smile and if you see the guy you like say hi to him and if he is not very shy he will start talking to you.

    okay well really i am not into the whole online dating thing. its atrificial. let it happen naturally. try to be the best person you can be. be beautiful on the and out. get know someone you have feelings for. ans isnce chivalry is dead, go up to the guy and ask him out or whatever. be assertive.


    best of luck, xoxox,

    Hi,
    I read the wonderful answer below and have a couple things to say ...
    Everyone is not a social person and some people really worry about going out, and or doing stuff in public ...

    If this is the case, you need to tend to your comfort zone...Is it church, the internet, work, sports???

    If so you need to tailor your method of search ... Just because you may find lots of people on a social network, why not pick a network that your interested in and then be forward and ask questions so you get to know people ... Same is true if it's non-internet, if it's a sowing circle ask about and get social with those who may have interest ...

    The one thing you don't want to do is go out with an agenda to find someone...Go out to have fun and meet people, because if you have an agenda when people meet you it will read like you have an agenda ... So you will have a sign on your head looking for a male seamstress who likes to period dance on the weekends ...

    OK ... Good Luck, And The Person You Are Looking For Is Probably Closer Than You Think :)

    If there's a boy you like then talk to him more after a while if he doesn't ask you out ask him. Don't be shy. It's ok.
