I am a mother of 2 small kids and I love it. I have however noticed over several years now that alot of people I know come to me for advice, so Im wanting to see if I have what it takes as an advice comlumnist. Maybe add something new to my ever expanding list of things I can do. I hope that I am as useful to you as I have been to my friends.

For a long time I had a friend who I didn't know so well and wouldn't see very often, who really liked me. He told me he liked me but at the time I really didn't feel the same way. In all honesty, I never thought I'd like him and I told my mom about the situation. I really cared about him and knew that he was really hurt because I didn't like him. So months went by. Then we hung out again, and I felt something small for him that day, but I denied it and tried to make it go away. Then we hung out again. My best friend was with us too but she had to leave early. After that I was alone with him for a few hours. It was awkward at first but we started talking and I felt connected to him. I feel like I started seeing a part of him that I had never seen before. That day I accepted that I liked him and told my friend. So after that we hung out more and I told him that I liked him. I went on a date with him and it was really fun! I mean I was really happy to be with him and everything. So a few days ago he asked me out. But today my mom was talking to me and she brought him up. So she knows something is up with us because we are together a lot now and she basically told me that I should only do something because I want to and not because someone else wants me to. She went on and on and now I'm doubting my feelings for him?!?! But he couldn't have convinced me to like him right? How is that possible? I don't want to doubt my feelings for him but I can't have a boyfriend when I'm not sure how I feel about him. Maybe if I explain it to her I'll feel better but I don't know. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. (link)
Haha, thats cute, I have a very similar situation with my husband =). When he first started asking me out I wanted NOTHING to do with him, it took him asking me out for a week straight for me to finally say yes hoping that he would shut up and leave me alone, lol. 9 yrs later here we are. So I really dont think that just by him saying he had feelings for you that you got them. You said you didn't know him very well and you didn't see him very often. Well guess what you have feelings for him b/c your compatible with him. Don't listen to your mom, she just wants whats best for you, and without being in your shoes she doesn't really know the situation. I say enjoy your new boyfriend, have fun and most importantly follow your heart, never second guess it. Good luck, I wish you the best!

Thank you so much! And congratulations on being with your husband for so long :). You're right, I have to listen to myself. I have to live for me.
