How to Get a Boyfriend
So, you’re ready for a relationship—congratulations! However, now you have to find a boyfriend. Take a look at the dating tips below to learn how to get a boyfriend and make a lasting impression on the first date:
Attend parties and other social events. You won’t be able to meet the one unless you put yourself out there! Step outside your comfort zone and socialize, even if you're a wallflower. Go to community events or hit up a bar—don’t be afraid to broaden your social circle.
Participate in activities you enjoy. Believe it or not, your future boyfriend may be hiding in plain sight! Join clubs or social media groups that center around your hobbies and interests to meet people who like the same things you do. Who knows? Your Prince Charming may be waiting for you at the next local book club meeting.
Ask open-ended questions. We know it can sound nerve-racking, but talking to your crush is a great way to get out of the friend zone. Get to know him a bit more by asking him questions like, “What do you like to do in your free time?” or “How do you feel about pineapple on pizza?”
Sign up for a dating app. If you’re ready for a relationship but aren’t crushing on anyone you know, try your hand at dating apps. Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge are great ways to put yourself out there and meet potential boyfriends. Not to mention, they can help you improve your flirting game.
Ask about his relationship status. Once you’ve reached the talking phase, there’s no harm in making sure he’s single. While you’re getting to know him, ask a simple question like, “So, are you seeing anyone?” This way, you’ll know for sure if the relationship is worth pursuing.
Stay off your phone. When you get that first date, put your phone on silent and leave it in your pocket or purse. Keep your attention on him to let him know you’re interested in what he has to say—you can check your messages once you get home.
Be yourself. Yes, it sounds super cheesy, but there’s a reason this tip is infamous. When looking for a partner, showing them your authentic self is always important. Push those insecurities aside and let him get to know you. If it’s a match, he’ll love every part of you.
Keep your own needs in mind. It’s okay to be “picky” when looking for a relationship. If you know what you want in a partner, don’t be afraid to seek it out! You know what’s best for you, so if he has a red flag you can’t ignore, trust your gut.
Not having a boyfriend or not being ready for a relationship is completely okay! Dating isn’t for everyone, and you don’t need a man to define your worth—live your life the way you want to live it. If a boyfriend is in your future, that’s great; if not, that’s perfectly normal too. Everybody grows at their own pace, so follow your intuition and do what’s best for you.
