Son gets the blues when looking at girls

Posted by lawrence s. on October 7, 2002, at 21:37:59

My 17 yr. old son told me one day after we went to the grocery store together: "Dad, I get depressed after shopping". Why I asked. He said, "Because we always see beautiful women/girls walking aroud the store. Looking at all that eye candy makes me feel real lonely for a girl. He says the beautiful girls only go out with the "popuplar guys" and that he will never be popular enough. He also said that the popular guys treat girls like crap, but they just keep coming back for more.
What could I tell him? I said "someday I'm sure you will get a beautiful girl". It went in one ear and out the other I'm sure. What could I say? I'm sure this is how he feels in school.
Any other guys/girls relate to this?
