Glasses and braces may not be as much a problem as you think.  You can’t “get” a boy to like you, but you can be the kind of person that boys feel comfortable around; who find you easy to talk to; who doesn’t embarrass them; who shows an interest in what they say.  My question to you is, do you let braces or glasses keep you from being interested in guys who have them?  Remember, this works both ways.
