I can only imagine how irritating it is to know people assume you have an eating disorder or are unhealthy in general. People don't realize that weight is sometimes NOT a reflection of lifestyle, but rather metabolism, hormones, etc. It goes both ways for those who are overweight AND underweight. There's a unique weight range that each individual's body is meant to be in, and yours just so happens to be below what the bullsh*t BMI standards consider to be "healthy."
Don't let it bring you down. You'd want a guy who's smart enough to know that, anyway ;)

I used to be like you.
It was so hard to gain weight.
What I did (and it worked) was...
-Brought a lot of nutriment/ensure drinks.
-When I ate I made sure I didn't drink liquid until after.
If you eat and drink at the same time, you are more likely to get full off of the liquid.
I used to be the exact same height and weight ! You're not that's skinny !
Now I've put some weight on, but when I was 47kgs each person I knew would compliment me on my body. Maybe we don't have the same body shape but id love to get back to those days :)
Your not even really underweight at at bmi of 18.42. You'll probably gain weight slowly as you age. Just try not to lose weight. At your weight I bet you look fine.
I think it maybe a confidence thing. Just be yourself and don't worry about what other people think of you. Be confident and that will get guys attention.

you're only slightly underweight according to this link but this is for adults,it's normal for kids to weigh less than adults because you haven't fully developed yet.
Count calories and make sure you are eating more than your RMR- the calories you burn just being you.
Find a calculator that will figure that number out online. Then log your calories and make sure you are eating 500 calories above that number. Eat it in who grains, protein, milk, fruits and veggies.so long as its healthy and you're confident with yourself not all :) and with your age you still have time to grow. I've just turned 18, I'm 5'2 and until recently have always been under 45kg even with muscle and my boyfriends have never complained. but I've found with healthy diet and exercise my body has naturally started to gain more weight. so long as you're healthy and happy damn what everyone else thinks :]
