I am a 20 year old female, and I am a great listener. My friends always come to me for advice, and you can too. Ask me whatever you want, I will be happy to try to help you with ANY problem or dilemna. I will do my best to give you a great answer. Whatever you ask, I will never judge or make fun of you - I will be honest and respectful with you, telling you my advice with a kind and rational answer. I have traveled all over, had many unique opportunities and experiences, and have great friends from many different places all over the world. All the traveling has taught me a lot about different kinds of people and I have gained a lot of insight and perspective throughout it all. I'd like to think that some of what I have learned will be helpful to other people, and that I can offer advice that takes into account all that I have come across in my 20 years, both from my experiences and the experiences of those around me. I was also an elite athlete, so I have some experience in fitness/training/health questions as well. Thanks for visiting my column! Have a fantastic day!!

Aw, I am glad that you don't base who you like just on their popularity. That is a hard lesson to learn, and you seem to have figured that out at an early age. :-) Sometimes, the 'geeky' types make the best boyfriends because they aren't shallow, and they tend to be more respectful and compassionate because they know what its like to be teased and labeled. If you like the boy, I think you should go out with him. Your friends should be supportive of you and not base your friendship on who you happen to like or date. Try having a talk with your friend/s next time they tease you for liking him. Say something like, 'Listen, we are really good friend, and you mean alot to me, so it really hurts me when you criticizing who I like. I appreciate your concern in who I date, but it is really none of your business why I like him. Just because you don't see the side of him that I do doesn't mean you should tease me for it.' Hopefully that will get the point across to them. You can't help who you fall for, so trust your heart. Take the chance and ask him out, he sounds like a great guy. Hopefully your friends will come to their senses, especially if you talk to them and tell them how much it means to you to have their support. Good luck!
