Q: ok so ive been on and off with my boyfreind for a year and a half now, and he just asked me back out a few days ago...but i still have other guys i like from wen we werent going out. And some of my old boyfreinds are coming back into my life now..not sure y..i mean i love my boyfreind right now, but i dont get to see him all the time, and i am a reallllllly bad flirt. I dont want to cheat on him, but i dont wanna turn down all these other guys...im too nice to do that. I really wanna be with my boyfreind but i feel like i'll b with him for the rest of my life, so i kinda want time away from him for now...i odnt mean to sound like a slut, cuz it wouldnt be like that, i just want to be able to hang out with other guys, but my boyfreind doesnt like that and gets really jealous, wat should i do?
You are definitely not a slut. I think that you should take this time away from your boyfriend to see what is out there. You don't want to get in a committed relationship with him, possibly ending up in marriage, and then always be left wondering and maybe even cheating on him. Your intentions here is not to sleep with anyone, but to be free, and there is nothing wrong with that. By you saying that you and him have been on-and-off for a year and a half goes to show that there is something in you guy's relationship that is missing. It looks as if you are not ready to settle down, and you shouldn't have to. There is nothing wrong with dating people. This is how you find out what you want and do not want out of a relationship. Explain to your ex that you need time alone to grow and experience things on your own without him having jealous and negative thoughts about you. Like the saying goes: 'If it was meant to be, you can let it go and it will come back to you.'
Good luck.

tahnx:)

I am a 22 year old mother of two that has had to grow up a lot faster then her years. I have been married for four years, but now am seperated from my significant other due to lack of his being able to handle a mature relationship. I can relate to almost anyone, and have been sought out, both online and off, for my advice. I answer all questions truthfully and honestly. If I don't know an answer to a question or I think other resources would be helpful, then I go into researh mode until I find an answer or the proper resource. I aspire to be a life coach in the future, because I like helping people make decisions to make their life better for their future. I am here not only to answer advice questions on this site, but to also chat with you if you feel like you need a more indepth one-on-one help.



Here are some of the guidelines I go by when answering advice questions:

  • I am always truthful in any advice I give.
  • I would never give anyone any advice that I would not follow myself.
  • I take into consideration your feelings when answering questions, but I will not sugar coat anything. If you are wrong, then you are wrong and I will tell you so.
  • If I cannot answer a question to the best of my ability, then I will point you to someone who can, or I will research my butt off until I find a helpful solution for you.
