I have a friend he is 16.we have been friends for a little while.We were talking a day then he said he liked me.then a week after he said he loved me .I told him I loved him too but everytime we talk that's all he say..I dont know what to do..I told him about it and he said he just loves me too much..I'm glad but conversations get boring at times...he comes by like once a week and we spend 1 hr and he talks only about me..btw I'm 15

Well i'm almost 20 & i can relate to your problem. I met one of my closest childhood friends when i was only 12. My mother & his mother were good friends so she actually let me go out on dates with him at as early as 14. He was pretty much in love with me from the beginning & i wanted to love him. There was no reason i shouldn't have... He was so nice and desperately crazy about me. But through the years i realized i was not in love. I often "friendzoned" him. I liked to cuddle and kiss him but i just didn't feel a spark. It was boring. Being 15 is hard & its a very confusing time. I don't think you love him, i think you love that he loves you and thats perfectly natural. Its hard to recognize the difference between love an admiration. For the sake of your friendship you might want to just stay friends but theres also no harm in continuing "dating" him... Maybe love will grow & if it doesn't then you got a learning experience out of it. You're only 15 no one says you have to know who you wanna be with right now. Just have fun, live your life & most of all be careful. :)
