advice
15/F
While growing up I never had the "two parent home" that most have and I am fine with that. My mother has been great, The only problem was the show of love always bothered me. IE: kissing, hugging, holding hands. I never felt comfortable around that stuff because I never saw it and I didn't know how to act when someone did. Its not that I didn't get effection or anything but I didn't see kissing or love toward another man with my mom so when others did it I thought it was wrong. (just my young childish logic) Fast forward to now, I'm 15 and i guess I have a BF. Well, he likes me. We've kissed/madeout and held hands. We have a date saturday and I'm acually not that nervous for the most part. Its just that I don't know how to tell him my feelings, He said "I love you", I said "I love you" but that just doesn't seem to cut if for me. I don't want to seem clingy and I really don't feel comfortable saying i love you since everyone in my family is seriously screwed with love. I like Ryan and I don't want to get hurt by him or hurt him. (I'm afraid I might make a rash decision and dump him)
So exactly how do I get myself to calm down and just enjoy the fact that he likes me?
Hey, I'm 15 too, and my parents divorced when I was about one. I know what you mean about showing love being somewhat bothersome. To me, it was only when my mom had a boyfriend or something that it bothered me. Ok, to the question. At 15 years old, I can't really say that I have ever been in love. I have had some crushes, but that's about it. I'm not saying that you don't love Ryan, but with something like "LOVE", you have to go slow and just enjoy each other. Try not to put too much pressure on the relationship, because that may wind up destroying it altogether. When you are with him, try not to stress the love thing too much. The best thing to do right now is to just have fun and enjoy the fact that you have someone whom you like and who likes you back. These are supposed to be the best times of our lives; try to make the best of it. Friendly advice from Caleb.
