Is getting attention from men something a young girl needs to worry about?

nothing wrong with you. how young is young ? maybe your friends are more outgoing and /or appear more approachable ? one time when you're out take a look at their demeanor and maybe one another time out try to imitate them and see if that works. It's possible your friends are using their other 'ASSETS' to draw attention. Show some skin and I bet you'll see your numbers go up a bit. If not you can come back and yell at me.
