I don't have that much self-confidence and i am really shy (i would never think to even ask out a guy). I am the 4th tallest girl in my freshman class and i am afraid that i will never get a boyfriend. How can i get a boyfriend? Is my height the reason i am not getting a bf?

 My sister had the same issue. She was 5'11" by the time she was your age! My father always told her that the sexiest part of a woman was the confidence in her stance and the twinkle in her eye. By the time the guys caught up in height, she was hip deep in boyfriends. So stand up straight; don't slouch. This is an asset, you'll see. Good luck.

You need to meet and date some boys who are shorter than you are. They will not expect it so you have to make the first move.

I was 5'11" when I was in high school..so I know how you feel. I am still 5'11" and I really like it now. Back then though I didn't..everyone asked me if I was in basketball just b/c I'm tall. It also is probably because you're shy. I was shy too in school. Don't worry, you'll get a b.f. at some time. I did. You're only 14 anyways so you don't need a bf right now anyways.

sweety you are 14 years old and more then likely youre going to get taller as you age. your height is not what you need to be worried about. although i think you are too young to have a boyfriend, if you are craving boys attention, make yourself sound easier to talk to and dont be shy. (smile and laugh at nething remotely funny they say) and get to know guys on a friend level which will introduce you to their friends which might be interested in you. ps: dont wear ne kind of heels :)
good luck

 Just as RCN said it, it's not your height, but maybe a little insecurity and shyness. I would bet for shyness. Take it easy and things will work out.

 i agree i think it might be your confidence
guys pick up on things like that, thay want confident girls and dont want to make fools of themselves (at that age) by asking out a girl they are not certain likes them back but by no means do yoo not be urself
i am also tall, around 5'11 and have been for years, to some extent this can be a barrier, most guys want to look strong and powerful when with their girlfriend and this wouldnt be very achieveable if she was taller than him
i wouldnt let things get you down, if it is the height thing, well girls grow faster than boys so they will soon catch up!
have faith and confidence in yourself, be proud, make the most of ur assests, dont slawch because of insecurities i know i did, but walk tall and this will give an air of confidence
good luck
much love x

 Nope, not your height, the other mix you have going on. Self confidence + being shy. Wouldn't it be nice if we could just contact your school and have them announce over the intercom that you're seeking a boyfriend. lol
If you don't show the guy interest, he won't ask you out. Guys your age like to feel as if someone likes them first before they consider asking them out. It's a way to have more guarantee of them saying yes than being rejected.

 I'm sure that's not the reason at all, sweetie. It just so happens you haven't bumped into the right person yet, that's all! x
