Okay, I went out w/ a guy for a month. I really really like him! I mean he is just like me. We are skaters/punk/emo/or goth...whatever u wanna call it and we have so much in common and he seemed 2 reaaly like me. I mean...we made out a lot and he was the one who wanted to in the first place!but he's a grade higher than I am and we don't get to see eachother much. Well..sunday..he called me and said that we had a huge problem..then he said that when he thought bout it it was so easy but now that he was talking to me it was hard, Then, he said he would call me back in 10 min. When he called me back..his friend was tellin him what to say and he broke up w/me! I was so upset...I never cried that much (after we hung up that is! I ACTED COOL OVER THE PHONE!) and now..he's goin out w/a total slut! every time I see him..I wanna cry! what do I do?

Dear, dear. He doesn't seem like quite the gentleman. Find ways to distract yourself. Watch some cool action/comedy movies, and just get yourself twisted up in this way of life that can boost your self-confidence. NO romance movies. It makes things sucky. Go shopping, and just pamper yourself. Maybe a bubble bath, a good book. Ways to make yourself feel more like your living your life for you and not some guy who's going to break your heart. In the mean time, steer clear of anything more than a friendship with guys, and don't act like your having a hard time over your X and maybe he'll realize what he's missed. If not, you'll be ready to move on shortly.
