Welcome to my advice column. My name is Dawn. First, I assure you I am not like other young people at all. There is nothing about me that is overly special. I have an extreme fear of going back in time, getting stuck there then contracting a disease that's curable now but not curable then, and of being drowned by peacocks. o.0 I have little respect for what hasn't earned it, most of the world is little more than my plaything or a joke to me but what makes it inside my walls is there forever. I was probably tampered with as a child by aliens. Godspeed.

This is an advice column. I have little patients for idiots...

Q: Can I ask you a question?


A: You just did, now I'm all out of answers for today, try again never.

Q: What's the song that goes like this ... ?


A: How is this asking for advice?

Q: I had unprotected sex 23,086,165 times, am I pregnant?


A: Take a damn test and stop being such a whore.

Q: Does he like me?


A: If you have to ask stupid questions like this, to complete strangers who know neither of you, then I highly doubt it. And if he does, then he's an idiot.

Q: Ok, I have to write this essay on (fill in the blank), what should I write?


A: Try growing a brain to think for yourself. You'll never amount to anything if you try to get others to do your homework for you.

Q: Rate this picture, am I ugly?


A: Once again, how is this asking for advice. Stop trying to get self-confirmation through strangers online. You have real self-issues and should probably see a therapist.

Q: Lyk how do u no if u r a lez?


A: You should really learn proper spelling and grammar. It's beyond me how anyone can understand a thing you said.

If you have a serious question, I can be one of the most helpful people you know. I may be only 22, but I have experienced a lot in my life. If I don't know the answer to your delema, I wont pretend to know it and give some random answer that sounded good at the time, I will simply let you know that I don't have the answer, and reffer you to some place that you can find the answer.

advice

i'm 15. almost 16. my special someone is 17. almost 18. our birthday are in the next two months. where I live it's ilegal for a 18 yr. old to date anyone under the age of 16 and i'm not quite there yet. but we've agreed we're not going to let that stop us. my mom doesn't let me go out with him because last week she decided that he's a loser because he droped out of school. and she thinks he's too old for me. my someone and i have been together for 8 months and i would do anything for him and we have a undying love for each other. but it's getting so hard and now he's listening to peoples opinions and wants to break up with me because he doesn't want to try anymore. i know i could have tried more instead of trying to find someone else. but now i regreat it. i know that if i convence him that we can do this then we can make it.. i just have to get him to see that we're supposed to be together any suggestions?

feel free to ask me any questions about this

I know what it's like to find love at a young age, and have everyone think it's not going to work out. My guy was the same age as me, however. We were together for three years, and he eventually just didn't want to try anymore. It hurt, and I tried everything. I was completely miserable during the next 6 months, trying so very hard, and getting nothing in return because he didn't want to try anymore.

The truth is, if he doesn't want to try anymore, there is nothing you can do to change that. Only he can make the decision to change. It would be easy for me to say,"I wish he would have tried." But the truth is, I'm better off. Sure, when I was with him, I loved him, and that was all I could see. But months after our break-up, I could see all the red-flags.

The same goes in your relationship. You love him, yes. But he doesn't want to try anymore. It's going to be hard, and you will be sad. But eventually, you'll move on. You'll find another person, and you'll grow from this relationship to make your next stronger and better.

I know this isn't want you want to hear. I didn't want to hear it when I was going through my breakup... but just remember, everything happens for a reason. You can't make him decide to try. Only he can. If he doesn't, then cry about it, get over it, and move on. If he does decide he wants to keep working on it, and he does have faith in your love, then great. This trial will only make your relationship stronger. Don't push him into trying, it will only push him further away. This is something he alone has to decide. You'll just have to accept it.
