Been on around 4 relationships till todays date, one of them was cheating me, one of them never cared about me, and other two wanted only one thing from me. I should say that all of them wanted that.. I feel like I always get stuck with the wrong guys!! Now I am kinda frustrated with all this, don't wanna compromise with any guy anymore. But today I got asked out by a guy for a simple coffee .. I can't say anything about him as I don't know him much and have met him twice or thrice in a church after mass. (well I don't think you can meet a bad guy there).. He is not that good looking.. quite older than me.. and he is a gentleman so far.. But for sure am not attracted to him at all. As I am in a phase like "why I always meet the wrong guys?" I feel like he could be the same.. [b]* What do you think should I go out with him? * should I turn him down?[/b] Cause one side of brain is saying that don't give a damn and wait for The One to come, and other side is saying that give it a try as you are single and a coffee won't hurt..

go to a internet dating website. You dont need to meet the person until you find the right one.

Only 19 and had 4 relationships already. Girl you need to slow down and get your life on track. You will do a lot of growing up over the next 4 to 5 years. A lot of changing during that time as you learn about yourself and your wants. And oh yyes you can meet a bad guy at church. A friend of mine's daugter was raped by a guy from church when she let him take her home after church. Maybe just have coffee with him but take your time and really get to know him before you get serious. have coffe at least 5 or 6 time before you go on a regular date. Don't get real serious for a year at least.

I don't think the teen years are all that great. Teens have a hard time getting to know just where their own boundries are and they can be easily inflounced by their peers and the media such as movies and rock stars. You won't reaaly feel any different when you reach the age of 20 than you do now. We some time expect a sudden change when we reach a certian age, but growing and changeing comes slowly. Be patient and be true to your self.

I didn't find teen years that adventurous..

All I can say Steels is just wait, pray and wait..You don't want to fall in a relationship that was not meant to be, it will only cause a lot of grief. I know it is hard to wait, but if the one G♥d has for you is out there,you will meet him in time. Keep praying, I have seen too many marriages fall apart and with children, and it is a nightmare you don't want..Better to be patient that to rush in. I am not saying you can't go out with someone if they ask you, but take it slowly and prayerfully...

Oh then definitely keep your focus on your career if you are struggling there..Because if you don't, you could make a very bad choice in one or the other or even both..

Hi! You have the honor to be the first person I ever answer here in myLot. Supposing you're 19, you still have a lot of wrong guys to meet... It can happen that you find you to spend many years together, but the odds are against you. I mean, you're a woman, and there are more woman than man. Now, please don't think and hope for "The One". There is no such thing, because you idealize someone, and usually you tend to only idealize good things about him... And there're no good and bad folks... There are persons with nice qualities and defects... There will be a guy, one day, that have the minimum qualities you require, and some defects you can stand (because you have the sames so you understand, or because those don't bother you all that much...). So, please stop waiting for The One, and try to relax about it... Follow your instincts and keep learning with your mistakes, so that you don't repeat them. You will find some more "wrongs" and you'll find some right's ones... Which can change to the other category any time... There's always changes. Top of all, keep it cool, and learn to be independent :)

Thanks for that honor by the way!! I really liked your response.. I mean I am just keeping myself from freaking out.. and staying as clam as possible.. But sometimes.. Its much easier way out to freak out at situations.. So.. I still don't hate men.. of course will go out on dates.. but only if the guy interests me enough. Thanks for your response.

I think you should try to be friends with him first! Not all great guys are good looking. Who knows if you gave him a chance he may turn out to be this great guy you have been waiting for? And if not, you are still young. I'm sure you will find someone nice to be with you throughout. Love is a trick game and half the battle is taking chances! Good luck!

At 19 please be clear with your own self. Friendship? or Relationship? At this age do not expect a guy to get committed to you for the rest of his life or I do not expect you to get committed to a guy for the rest of your life. That commitment will be only in the form of marriage and I feel that at 19 you are years from that sort of relationship. First you goal must be to finish school/college and get into good career and then ask God to take you to the person whom he has chosen for you. Already the guy whom you are going to marry is some where out there but you do not know him yet, So wait and do not choose boy friend and instead become friends with both boys and girls and know your limit and theirs. True friends will never try to take advantage of you.

If you always meet the wrong guy, I think you need to think about yourself first and the way you comunicate with your guys. There are more method for you to choose to deal with

I have also been cheated by my past boyfriends and I never learned. Now, I am already married for 11 months now and I am very happy. Well, I think you should give him a chance. Try to get to know him more better. I guess he is not your type of person but maybe you will find some qualities that you will love. I don't think physical attraction is a must in having a relationship. Just be friends with him and hope that he will not act like he is your boyfriend already. That would be a major turn-off.

ya at least hope that.. Actually all of my friends(boys) behave kind a like that.. I mean jokes and talks.. That was my mistake.. As I never shouted on anybody for talking that way with me.. never got angry and just went indifferent.. But my friends(girls) told me that if you don't slap them, guys think that the girl approves your offer.. So ok now .. I think now I now exactly what to do when some one behaves the way with me!! thanks for your response!!

Just remember that love is not finding Mr. Right - instead, it's about building a right relationship. Also, the best relationships start as friendships. It can't hurt to give this guy a go. Never be afraid to try anything, but do take everything with a grain of salt. Be realistic about what you want, for sure, and have faith - things will be happy in the end. If it's not happy, it's not the end^.^

Bad guys are always existing in our life. Love is everything, that is why most of the people in different culture want to be given love from others. No matter your family members or your would-be hubby always willing to show your love. Cheating not only happen in love relaships , but also in frendship. I think you are charming , and you should take time to look penetrate other people and the world. Good luck.

People will do what it takes to get what they want. So knowing this.. One must decide... through interacting with others ... what they will and wont accept. Its a LIFE LONG learning experience when your in relationships, Its up to YOU.. to decide what and with who you want to get involved with. and always remember that it takes ALOT of going through all sorts of relations.. to find out what you want for yourself, and the type of people you want to be with. and.... always keep asking questions because thats how you learn.
