Am I doing something wrong?

[Guest]

I know it's a young age, but I'm 16 years old. I've never had a girlfriend nor my first kiss. I feel like a loser and it just feels so out of place. It's not that I can't make friends easy. I'm an easy going person, and I do have a lot of friends in my opinion. I can talk to girls just fine about anything. I just can't get in a relationship. I'll have crushes on girls and it won't lead anywhere. I always fear rejection, and I know someone will just say, grow some balls and get over it, it's kind of a hard thing to do for me. I have tried, and asked a girl out before, and she rejected it and I felt so humiliated, I still think about it everyday. I use to be really popular last year, and I don't know what happened over summer, but it seems as if I've lost a bunch of friends or everyone stopped talking to me, I seem to be the one making an effort in friendships. I just don't know what to do, all of my friends are in relationships and bug me about it, and I really don't know. It doesn't help that I have high standards and look for a smart good looking girl. I have some serious self esteem issues as-well. I always think low of myself and have no way to fix it. There's so many imperfections in me.

I just really need someone to talk to, I'm going through a difficult time.
