Did he really reject me?
Basically I told a guy I liked I really liked him. He said it's fine, I'm OK with that, he told me he really liked me too and that I was a great person, an amazing person but he just got out of a two year relationship and he's fed up with all of that. I mean I told him I got out of a 6 year relationship and that I know how it felt losing someone. I told him that I'm not expecting him to like me back but he cut me off saying "no, it's not that I don't like you, I really really do like you a lot, but I don't want to be tied down in another relationship".

I know how it feels to break up with someone but I've heard this all before whenI ask out a guy, he'd reject me and say he's just broken up from a relationship. The thing is, at the pub today, he kept wanting to sit next to me when my friend sat on his chair and that he asked me constantly whether I'm going to the pub with the others. He leaned closer to me but not to a point where he nearly hugged me, it made my friend say "you make a cute couple". He has a lot of girls liking him and that he likes that attention. (link)
I wouldn't say that he has rejected you. He just doesn't want to be in a relationship right now. He still needs some more time to heal his broken heart. As for his sitting next to you at the pub, he might just want to reassure you that he is attracted to you. He wants to make sure you know how he feels about you so you wouldn't feel rejected.


hi, me and my boyfriend have been dating for 1 year now. he's a single father and 30 years old and i'm 2 years younger than him. we love each other a lot. he used to tell me how much he loves and me and wants to be with me. but recently, i argue with him in front of his daughter and he seemed really upset plus he's quick tempered and stubborn unlike me i'm more of a easy going and he didn't like my attitude because i was arguing with him in front of his daughter, and afterwards he wouldn't talk to me when i approached him. i asked him, 'so u don't love me then and he said, oh yeah i love u, but that't it and that's enough. so, guys, what does he actually mean? he still says he loves me. he used to say he misses me a lot but at the moment not often unless i say them first. i just reckon he wants to break up with me. but i don't want to break up with him. please help. thank you guys.

He does have a reason to be upset. Arguing in front of children is quite bad. He probably does still love you, but he may be trying to distance himself away from you to prevent another argument in front of his daughter. Something like that can hurt a child's self esteem, and it probably hurt him deep down inside. Try talking to him about how his actions make you feel. Don't yell at him about it, just tell him in a calm voice.


My boyfriend and I only see eachother once or twice a week. Sometimes, on those days I see him, he wants to hang out with his friends. He doesn't have many, but when we do hang out with some of them, I get very uncomfortable and I barely talk. I'm not even sure why. From my perspective, I think it's because we both come from different "worlds". ME: 18, just graduated high school with high honors, college plans, looking for a part-time job, have a similar group of friends that have the same goals as I do, not too much of a partier (very rare, but I do..). BOYFRIEND: 20, dropped out of college for now, has a job that pays decently, likes to party but doesn't that much anymore, smokes marijuana daily, and has a group of friends that do the same exact thing....put it this way, we're complete opposites...It's just that, whenever I'm around his friends, I feel so out of place. I always have since we started dating. I'm just not used to hanging around those type of people and it makes me feel like a misfit around them. So, when he mentions hanging out with them, I really don't want to :/ they talk about memories, marijuana, drinking, partying, etc. None of which I can relate to :/. We live so far away from eachother (which is why I don't see him often) so we have no mutual friends. And I can't just call up my friends to head over all of the time because it's an hour drive. Also, I would prefer just to hang out with my boyfriend when I see him, since I don't see him much. But, don't get me wrong, I always give him his "bro time", he can see his friends whenever he wants. He, in my opinion, should be able to just hang out with me and not NEED to be around his friends one/two days a week for a few hours. Please give any advice you guys can :/ thank you. (link)
By what you have said, you are pretty much in a one sided relationship. You are going out the way to please him, you hang out with his friends and feel uncomfortable, and this is also how you feel about him. Please excuse me for saying this, but this relationship is bad for you. You go out your way to visit you and he never returns the favor. It is true that opposites attract but in this case, I doubt it. Your plans for life and his plans for life are completely different. You have your college career to care about and as for your boyfriend, he has his marijuana buddies and his job. He basically is treating you like one of his buddies except you don't smoke and have static plans for the future.


Okay, so let's start by saying that I'm a 17 year old female and my main problem is that I've never been kissed before. I've never even had a boyfriend before nor have I been kissed and this worries me. I'm not socially awkward or anything, and I get along well with other guys, but apparently not on a romantic level?
What should I do? Should I stop worrying so much about this, because it really does bother me. :( (link)
You shouldn't worry at all. Be patient, that kiss will come to you one day. You should try becoming more comfortable with yourself first. Don't put so much pressure on yourself to kiss, just let things happen.
