You know how it's sometimes uncomfortable to be with someone who is crying or sad? We want to be with them and help them sure, but if we don't know them it can be..awkward? Sometimes when we are shy and dislike ourselves we give off the awkward vibe. It makes it hard for people to break down the walls, even though we so desperately want them too.
Sure, tearing down your own walls opens you up for getting hurt, but you'll never get to have something real without it. You gotta open up.
And also, don't give a shit in highschool. It's a small community where you are only placed together because you live near each other and happen to be born around the same time. College has people of similar interests(durp...majors) and even fun clubs that aren't shitty like highschool clubs. You'll be with people who are suddenly separated from their niches and looking to find new people to talk to. That's a good chance to find someone to be friends with, and a good chance to find your future love.
Don't be shy! Just because girls have vaginas doesn't make us any different than boys. The whole 'girls are so foreign I can't talk to them' thing is such a myth. Especially in college.
>>187447My first long term boyfriend(ie lasted over a year) started as an online thing and was later long distance. It was a lot of fun while it lasted. He turned out to be gay though.
BUT as far as meeting people in your area online and them going out, why the hell not? I have done it with friends. Half my friends I met through friends on facebook and we later just hit it off and actually hung out. It can work with couples as well.
