Almost all of the time lately I've been feeling like I'm invisible to every one around me. I can walk down the halls of my school and no one seems to see me. And at church, it's like I'm on the outside always looking in. I have plenty of both female and male friends, but when it comes to dating, the guys that I like, tell me that I'm best friend material and not girl friend material. And it just makes the feeling even more worse. Any advice on what i should do? it would be appericated.

Prayers, my dear, that you allow the Holy Spirit to lift you higher and higher. Everyone feels invisible at times, believe me. I'm saddest to hear it's happening at your church where everyone should be welcomed with open arms each and every time. Regarding the girlfriend material aspect; I know it seems a million years off but one of those "friends" just may be the one who finally realizes that the friendship is just the basis for a whole lot more. It takes friendship to really see the beauty that lies within you. Let God bring out that beauty, ask Him to show the world what He wants the world to see. Are you involved in anything at school or church? Join a club at school, help out at church events, be there more than just on Sunday morning, your efforts will be noticed and you may discover a true calling. Plus, you'll be around people w/ similar interests & goals.
I'll keep you in my prayers for the world to see you as God sees you.

Telling you that you're just friend material and not girlfriend material seems awful rude to me...these are your friends?
Some people are just more comfortable with 'blending into the background' rather than making a bold statement. If you're one of these people, don't feel guilty about it or wonder if there's something wrong with you. You will probably meet a guy with close to the same type of personality.
I actually prefer being around these low-key people. They are not into the huge self-image and are interesting to talk to and to get to know.
Some guy is going to come along and see you for the very special person you are...that is the kind of guy worth waiting for. Guys that chase after the superficial qualities will, to your benefit, ignore you. So don't worry about it
