Q:  Dear Max, I’m the only one in my group of girlfriends who doesn’t have a boyfriend.  I don’t even get asked out much, and I’m starting to feel like What’s wrong with me?  I’m smart and funny, but a little shy.  I’m not the prettiest girl in school, but I’m decent looking.  What can I do to make myself more dateable?

A: First off, there is probably nothing wrong with you. There is nothing you can do to make yourself more “dateable” and still be true to yourself. You should not change who you are just to get a guy.  Wait until the right guy comes along, but don’t change yourself to get one now.
