text: whats the best place to met potential boyfriends at the age of 17? the thing is that my school is rather small. i don't have any problems with my physical appearance honestly or anything like that, its just i've been single for three years. mostly is out of choice. i don't really need a boyfriend and i am independent, its just it would be nice to met a guy. there are cafes around my area and places like that, maybe i should go there more often? the best place is school.. but i came from a small school too.. you could definitely try cafes but really the second best place is going to be concerts. go see a band you like and chances are you'll meet a cute guy your age and now you know you have something in common.
