MzNonchalant is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks. And that makes a lot of sense. Now that I think about it I do tend to think of how I want the relationship to be like before I go with the boy. But how to break the cycle.

It seems that what you are attracted to is actually the fantasy of the boy rather than the boy himself. You fabricate in your own mind who he is and how you would be together and because you like him for such a long time, you do this for a while. When eventually you go out with him however, no surprise that the reality does not meet your expectations or fantasy causing you frustration.
My advice: break the cycle- your young now but you wont be forever and falling into a bad pattern like this will leave you lonely and confused.
Meet a boy and get to know him properly before making a decision that you want to be with him. Don't rely on your own fabrications of him because they are nearly always false.
