writes: Dear Cupid,I don't really know how to start this.I really want a boyfriend, I guess. There's a guy I really like who's 13, but I hardly know him, I've just seen him around and he's mates with one of my other guy friends.There's also a group of guys who are 2 years younger than me (they're 12), but they hang around with my crowd of friends. I'm also concerned that they'd be a bit immature as a boyfriend. Two of them in particular give me hugs a lot and I text-message them often. But the thing is, they ARE younger and also, they're both looking for girlfriends in their own year group.I get jealous a lot as my closest friends all have boyfriends. The one who doesn't has her eye on a guy and sends me chat logs from him and things like that. I'm happy for her but this guy is 3 years older than she is so I don't want her to get hurt (but I know this sounds hypocritical as I like guys younger than me, so I feel bad).I envy her confidence and ability to get guys. I wish I was like her, or could at least talk to this guy that I like.Please help me. I'm 14.

 To have confidence all you have to do is remind yourself of how great you are! When you look in the mirror tell yourself how beautiful and smart that person staring back at you really is, as you start to believe that you are a great person, one full of value and kindness, other people will see it as well. Just remember that right now boys seem like what the world is about but you have plenty of time to be with boys, enjoy the uncomplicated time with your friends, and sooner or later a boyfriend will be in the picture.
