Dear Readers:
I think my life experience is what qualifies me to write this column. I made every mistake imaginable. But have learned from them. Most important I still remember what it was like to be 12, 13, 14, 15, and so on. Currently I am a single mom, I have two wonderful boys. One in college. We are all happy emotionally. We love life, and know that you can too. I try to be the kind of parent that understands. I know that I can help you to understand where you parents are coming from, and help you get over the difficulties of being young. You can even have your parents write to me and I will help them to get over their fears and at least respect you and your feelings. I have been married and divorced twice, so I have experience in that field also. But now I own my own home, and my own business and am successful. Lots of luck to you! Hope to hear from you.

so one of my good guy friends found out that i fancy him. but he still has feelings for his ex.
he doesnt mind me fancying him but i do have the feeling that things are kind of awkward when we talk :S.
the thing is that i reaally like him & now i dont know if i should stay friends with him or just completely cut him out of my life :/
we've only known eachother for a month anyways but we just klicked. & im new at this school & he was one of my only friends. i dont know what to do because just seeing him hurts me:/ (link)

Hi honey,
I know it hurts, and that sucks, but you need friends too. You'll see friends are very important. After all your new to the school. And if you end up with no friends, that will hurt even more.
Give him some time. Many great love affairs grow out of friendship. Be patient, and don't mention that you have stronger feelings for him, because then he'll start to avoid you. Let him take it from here. And since you are new to the school, look around maybe you'll see other boys that you could like as more than a friend.
As far as pain goes, honey if you don't want to get hurt, then join a convent, because that is the only way to avoid it. Life and love sometimes cause hurt feelings. But in time you'll find the right person, and all those old hurts won't matter. This is a time in your life when you get to know people and learn about them and yourself and relationships. Don't pass it up. YOu need to experience these things. Of course respect yourself and others. Good luck to you dear
Michele
