Considering I know just about everyone at my school. (Over 500 people BTW) But no one I would like to get involved with. Any suggestions?

Look outside of school? Do you take any classes or do anything outside of school? If not, it may be a good idea to start getting involved, and not just primarily for finding a romantic interest. There are also various sites for teens to socialize - that shouldn't be hard to find, I'm sure.
Another thing would be to stop actively looking and a romantic interest will eventually find you when you're not looking for it. By actively looking, you're trying to force something that can't be forced.

lmao, When I saw your name I thought that you locked the thread. :)
I haven't been looking, but I'm so frustrated with being lonely I though I might do something about it. I'll see if I can do anything outside of school. Most of my interests aren't really female friendly. :(

Ahahah, sorry if I scared you! I do make posts aside from locks and moves :P
Doing activities outside of school is beneficial, even if it doesn't progress your social life. Especially at your age, getting involved in something now will look really good as you go through high school. Plus, it gives you something interesting to talk about once you do find someone you're romantically interested in.

Yeah I guess. Its kinda hard for me because I live in an segregated rural place, its like, an hour to my school. 45 minutes to the city/town whatever you call it.

That is rough. I don't have any advice for you there, unfortunately, since I've no experience with that. Maybe your school has some programs or something to help you out.

That's a pretty rough situation that you're in. I can't really relate as I'm a city boy. Try your best to engage yourself with people who you might at first not think you would get along with. You might end up judging them wrong and they could end up being a good friend. I understand having a relationship would be nice, but let it happen naturally. I don't want for you to become upset that you were trying to make it a goal to find love instead of just finding who you are as a person.
Join any type of after school clubs that you can, sports, book clubs.
Try to get your classmates phone numbers or emails so you can talk to them while you are at home because you live so far from school. :)

I think it is harder if you live out of town - I do so not easy to hang out with friends then meet others.
Whatever your current interests - you maybe should just look around and see whats happening or start something - not easy

Look outside of school. Go to parties/FB friends of friends. Go to the city/town/clubs.

To me, you seem very closed and boxed in as far as opening yourself up to new things is concerned. You only want to hang out with that one girl, and you haven't really mentioned any hobbies you enjoy.
What I mean by that, is that I would like for you to find something you enjoy to do, stop being so shy and introverted. That's all, don't worry about it. :D

My interests aren't really, well, I would meetmmuch people. I like gaming, motocross (I ride) and rap.
I get what you mean though. Thanks.
