hii...

don't you DARE change a THING!!! there is absolutely nothing at all wrong with being a tomboy. and changing just because a guy tells you to would open up a whole new can of worms that you most definitely do NOT want to get started on. based on my experiences, once you change one thing for a guy, they're like, "okayy, great!!! now, can you just change (insert some other thing here)?" and so begins a never-ending cycle that leaves you feeling like crap.

you are who you are, and you should never change that for anybody. and you really don't HAVE to change anything just to get boys to look at you. somewhere out there is a guy that is going to love and accept you exactly the way that you are. soo, just keep on being you. ")

good luck, and God bless,

Illithid agony auntNOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Don't change! The world needs MORE tomboys, not fewer! Girls in an inch thick layer of makeup, wearing thongs and heavy earrings, walking around in heels and miniskirts are EVERYWHERE! What we NEED are more women that feel comfortable respecting themselves and just having fun with life. (Admittedly, the girls I've dated have all been tomboys, so this may just be my preference.)

no you shouldnt change. if you want boys to like you, they'll like you for who you are, and they wont ever ask you to change.

you dont need to fully change yourself who you are on the inside should never change unless on your own account however if you want the boys to start taking notice of you then it is time for change with your appearance there is nothing wrong with looking like a girl taking care of your skin throwing on some make up growing out your hair getting some fake nails and still skate boarding scraping your knees(so long as your not planning on a skirt) and being like the guys chillen out and not being like those preppy girlie girls but keep in mind you are a girl so let her out
