Okay, I was arrested when I was in middle school, and I just got out a year ago, (I’m sixteen now). I have a crush on this girl, but parts of my brain still function like a twelve year old’s because that’s when I was pretty much ripped away from my childhood. So now parts of me are extremely experienced, mainly in caombative and survival, (due to being beaten, raped, and shanked on a weekly basis), and I know some girls are really atracted to me since I’ve been back, but I have the romantic relationship skills of a little kid. Meaning when I here the word girlfriend I’m automatically thinking of hightailing it out of there as to not look potentially ridiculous. I’ve been told that having a…”romantic partner” can help with depression, (which I have pretty much 24/7. i.e. a good day is when I don’t try slitting my wrists or killing myself). I’ve been doing slightly better at not thinking about taking my life, but I’d like to be able to have something to live for outside of my drug addicted family, which is why I’ve been thinking about getting a girlfriend. Problem is: I don’t know how to, where to, when to, or anything! How should I talk to her? I sound like freaking tarzan when talking to girls! How should I dress? What types of things are girls around 16 interested in anyway? Please please help! Thank you.
