Q: i am a 15 year old guy. i have always like girls and i mean ALWAYS. never ever felt even the slightest love directed at a guy. 4 months ago i asked a girl out. after that, i had a crush on another girl a little less than 2 months ago.
I am really confused because about 3 weeks ago i started wondering i may be gay after i saw some line reading a soccer review where the player said "its a man's game". i have no clue why but that set of a chain reaction in me. after this i can count about 3 instances where i haven't been aroused that much by porn. i have never watched gay porn but for some reason it seems more exciting but not so arousing. i think it might be the hero worship happening now. i am sexually attracted to women ONLY and masturbate thinking about them only and do not fantasize about men.
my relationship with my dad is good but i don't see him so much because he is busy and my brother left for college last year. have not been able to meet my friends so much cos i have study leave for exams.
please help. i really need it
You are in puberty, that is it! (to put it simply) Guys always check out other guys and look at their muscles and legs, and faces. But that does not determine your sexuality. You are curious. That's all. You are not gay.

Q: i like this guy at school but he's a year younger than me and i don't want pple saying i'm desperate so i decided not to like him anymore but i still do

what do i do? help plz and thanks!
You should not worry about what other people think about you and your love life. If you love him and he loves you, that's all that matters!!! :)

Q: ok so there's this guy who i met, and he's like this really nice guy but he really likes me. It's not that i like him, but this is the situation i'm facing. He thinks I'm his girlfriend, but he's a little bit mentally behind?? I don't know if that sounds mean..... if it does I'm really sorry. I don't mean to sound mean. He's not retarted but his mind isn't necessarily at the same level as a regular 17 year old boy. He acts like he's younger. On Valentines Day, he had roses delivered to my school and he wrote on the card that I was the best girlfriend ever and that I make him so happy. But, I have a boyfriend, and they go to the same school. I can't have him telling my boyfriend he's with me and start a whole big huge misunderstanding for no reason. But, I feel so bad because I don't know what to do about this because I don't want to hurt his feelings, especially because of him acting younger. I really don't know what to tell him? Should I just not say anything and tell my boyfriend about this before the other guy does?

ADVICE NEEDED PLEASE AND THANK YOU
You should tell your boyfriend that it's just a mistake and that you will fix it.

Then tell the other guy that you just want to be best friends, maybe he'll like that. But when you say it act really excited to show that it's a good thing to be best friends. And you don't REALLY have to be best friends with him just say Hi when he does and your good. If you get to close just say, "Oh, I'm sorry I can't." An answer like that corresponding to the statement he made.

GOOD LUCK! :)

Q: i have this friend(she really is a friend) whos likes this guy..he liked her at the begining of the year and asked her out alot!!....but she rejected him everytime b/c he did'nt like him then...now she likes him alot...and he likes her friend...he calls her alot and ims her to get info about her friend...everytime he does that she gets more and more jealous...i want him to go back to liking her...is there anything she can do??...she flirts with him and everything..but i don't know wat she can do??
YOU, not your friend, should give the guy a NOTE without your name, and TYPE IT so that they can't recognize your hand writing.

Say this, "This is for (guy's name). (Your friends name) likes you a lot. And she totally wants to go out with you, but your too busy with another girl. Think about it. BUT, don't mention you got this letter, it's not from her."

You don't have to say that, but something like that.

GOOD LUCK!!!

You have to break the ice. You have to make him laugh. You have to show him that you love him. You need to sit him down, and you guys just have to TALK!

Anger is stuck in his heart, and he needs to let it out. JUST TALKING will solve everything. You just DON'T want to get into an argument. He loves you, but I don't really understand why he doesn't talk to you anymore.

Email him a letter. "I hate being like this, I NEED to speak to you, and the truth is... I still like you."

Not sooooo straight forward but you have to let him know.

GOOD LUCK!

Q: k, so my friend thats a girl(not my gf) was going out with a guy that she didnt really like. Then her bf found out that she liked another guy, but didnt do anything about it and he let her know that he knew. Later into the relationship she didnt want to be with him anymore and they broke up. She then hooked up with the other guy that she liked and now the guy she used to go out with h8s her and is not talking to her. Also the two guys,i think are still friends.
You should tell your friend the following...

1. You should never go out with anyone you don't like, because if that person finds out, he could get hurt because the fact is, HE loves her.

2. Try to become friends with the EX again. Start with small talk. Make him laugh! :)

3. Most importantly you have to say sorry to your EX. He needs to know that you are not just some jerk girl that goes out with anyone.

Don't make the same mistake again...
GOOD LUCK!

Q: I wanted to know why do some boys act mean and nasty to certain girls after they break up. Like they start saying "What are you looking at?" They also start talking about that girl and they don't speak no more or even look the girls way.
Boys are very stubborn. A couple broke up, and the guy doesn't want to make it seem that he is now helpless or weak because of the break-up. He wants to show everybody that he doesn't care (when he really does), and the best way for him to do that is to make fun of you, be mean to you. It really sucks but it's really HIS problem not yours!

I am very sad to tell you that the chances of you two ever becoming friends again are slim. If he is going to act this way then it's going to be impossible. I know it must be hard for you, but try to push him out of your mind. Ignore him and he will ignore you. BUT if he keeps making remarks and making fun of you, tell him off!!! Then he'll shut up!

Q: There's this boy. I've liked him for about three years now. He liked me when I first started liking him, but I was too stupid to do anything about it.

Now that I think about it, he's always been the one in the back of my mind. And lately, I can't stop thinking about him.

I even had this dream that he was going out with this girl (who I hate, by the way) and I was completely jealous. Also, if his name even comes up in a conversation that a girl is having, I get extremely jealous. He's not even my boyfriend.

What does this mean and why am I constantly thinking about him? And what can I do to either a) get him off of my mind, or b) work up the nerve to tell him how I feel?
You have the HOTS for this guy! It's not anything to be ashamed about. You like him and most likely he likes you.

Maybe because he liked you first, and then you didn't do anything, he feels that you don't like him. So maybe if you kinda show him that you like him he will bounce back.

In my opinion, you should never tell a boy DIRECTLY that you like him. It might freak him out, and you don't want that. Try talking to him every now and then. Try to show that you have feelings for him without really saying it. Get me?

Good Luck! :D

Q: So...I am 15 (soon to be 16) and this past Saturday, I lost my virginity to my boyfriend. We've been together for almost 3 months. His Dad found out and now I have a feeling that he is going to tell my mom. I want to tell her. I really do, but I think that she will be really disappointed in me. I was going to tell her tonight but I couldn't do it. Something told me that it wasn't a good idea, but then I get the feeling that I should because if she finds out from his dad, then she will be even more disappointed in me for the fact that I didn't tell her myself. I don't think she'll trust me ever again. And I have a feeling that she won't want me to see him anymore. I can already see what she is going to say. "You're only 15." or "How could you be so stupid?" or she will call me a slut...I don't know what to do. Should I tell her? Or not...
Ok, so you slept with a guy. It's done, cannot change it, NEXT SUBJECT. You should absolutely tell your mom. She will get mad at you, but it will take of the HUGE amount of guilt that you are carrying around right now. (And it will be MUCH better for you to tell her rather than your boyfriends dad)

Q: Me and a friend saw eachother at a dance last friday and there was a lot of flirting. This friday we're seeing eachother again. Last friday he said he was going to dance with me at the dance this coming friday. The thing is he has a girlfriend and when it comes to dancing i freak dance. I told him "yea ill dance with u....but what about ur....nevermind?"...then he said "Girlfriend?"...i said "yea!"....he told me "dancing is dancing". So i don't know if its going to be wrong to freak with him while he has a girlfriend?...also i can't stop flirting with him because he flirts with me....What should i do???
Obviously he does not really like this girl friend of his because he is not really interested about being devoted to her. SOOOOOOOO. Go for it.

Just keep these things in mind...

-You might end up in a fight with this girl that he is going out with.

-You might end up going out with this guy.

-YOU NEED to pay attention to him BEFORE saying yes to be his girl friend because if he is not faithful to his current GF, then what do you think he might do to you?

Q: ok so i like this guy a lot but right now i'm not with him and he's talking to someone else. But my real thing is this other guy that i don't tlak to much but he is really cool. He's sweet and he's a really good kid. he's cute too. well i was wondering about how i should start a conversation with him. He's kinda shy. He plays football, basketball, and baseball. He's like the all around american guy. So how should i get him to notice me? how should i start a conversation with him? and about he other guy i like should i wait on him and not take my chances with this guy? idon't know waht to do so help me out. GUYS ANSWER THIS TOO PLEASE!
It's really up to you...but here are some questions you can ask yourself about each guy to see which one you like most, READY!?

1. Is this guy cute?
2. It his guy kind, and sweet?
3. Will this guy do what ever when ever for you EVEN in front of his guy friends or any other friends?
4. Is her outgoing and not mad all the time?
5. Can he make you smile, laugh, and make you feel good about yourself?
6. !!!! Do you think you should give yourself more time to make sure your making the right decision?

LOVE: Takes time, but once it is established you can make into the most beautiful thing anybody cannot see, except you and your lover! ;)

Again, it's really up to you. I can't tell you which one to pick because I don't know them, and I might have a different idea about each one than you...

____________So you want to talk to him?___________
Simply start a small talk conversation. Smile at him in the hall way. Get to know each other before actually thinking about getting serious. Any time you have a chance, say something, just don't say something stupid! (lol)

BUT ACTUALLY!!! You could say something stupid and laugh at it, you should always make him feel like he can do make a fool of himself in front of you and you wouldn't care! :)

So, GOOD LUCK!!!

Q: So this guy , who is one of my good friends but isn't that good looking like at all. (Not trying to be mean) was talking about how he was getting roses for this girl for vday, and then he was like so..do you like roses? and I was like uh.. yeah..? am I just being paranoyed (sp?) Or is he getting me roses for vday?!!! I really don't want to have him give me something..but I don't want to be like oh uhh..thanks.. how do I show him that I don't like him without being mean?! he suffers from depression, so I really REALLY don't want him to get sad if I don't like him. WHAT TO DO?!
He totally likes you. OR he is just a really good guy friend like ME! (j/p) ANYWAY, if he does get you roses just accept them and respond, "Wow! You got me roses!? Thank you so much!"

Unfortunately for you, he probably might ask you to be his girl friend. He will probably be VERY nervous, but you just have to say is, "I don't want to be in a relationship right now. Please don't take it the wrong way or anything because you are an awesome person, but I am just not ready for a boyfriend right now."

Be sincere and respectful. He will accept it, and move on...hopefully. But you never know.

BUT!!!! This only falls into place if you are the girl he is going to give those roses too!

Q: Okay there is this guy I like and yeah he dosn't know I like him and tomorrow is valentines day. I don't know what to do or say. I've liked him for such a long time! I hardly talk to him. If this helps I'm 13/f. Just any advice is appreciated. I don't want to tell him I like him, just little hints I guess. It isn't really hard to talk to him but it would be a little weird to just go up and talk to him. And I don't have many classes with him too. Thanx!
Start with small talk. If you have ANY classes together you could ask about the homework. You could always just say, "Hey! Do you know (one of your friends names)? That's cool, I know (that person) too."

You should always smile when he walks by, and when you can do the cheek to cheek kiss. Show that you know he's there.

Don't try too hard to make yourself noticeable. He will catch on.

And as for tomorrow. Don't ask him to be your Valentine. Just say things like, "Do you have a Valentin?" Make him a little nervous and then say, "Just Chill! LOL!"

AND REMEMBER!!! Always act like yourself. Only then will people love you for who you truly are! :D

Q: Well I don't know. You see, i'm 13. This boy has been my best friend for about two years and we've been together for a year. It's nice and everything. We are real close and know almost everything about eachother and everything. He's different from the rest of the guys i've gone out with. Don't think I am a slut or anything but we are both comfortable being naked around eachother. He trusts me and I trust him. No, this is not my first relationship. Anyhow, he's always there when i need him. Well, he's actually a nice boy and won't take advantage of me or anything like that or trying to get me to have sex with him. I know i'm young and yes i am still a virgin. Most of you are probably thinking "teen love dont have sex with him" Of course i'll be on birth control and have a condem and everything but i'm not sure if i should give up my virginity so young. So what do you people out there think about the whole situation?
If you love him, and he loves you and you BOTH are comfortable with it...then do it. Of course you are going to have protection and all that but if you think it's love then go for it. BUT!!!!

I believe that I will never have sex before I get married because to me it's an intimate thing that should only be done when you and your partner are ABSOLUTELY sure of it, for example MARRIAGE!

You can do what you like. But if you really thought about it. There is a million other guys that you could have sex with. But don't you want your first time to be with someone who has VOWED to be your husband FOR EVA!?

Q: heyy, im a 15 (nearly 16) year old girl. im having baddd problems with both my boyfriend and my Friends. i know the expression "Chicks before Dicks" but that isnt working. i dont hang out with my friends as much i'd like to. and i hang out with my boy every weekend (his grandma lives across the street and he lives 30 mins away) so every time i make plans with my friends on the weekends he cant help but to get upset. i love spending time with him, but i need friends, you know. i dont know if i should break it off. i've been with him for 9 months now. i've been trying to work it out but it's not working. my friends dont like him either. they think he is trouble. bhe is also one of my best friend ex.
You should always find time for your boyfriend AND your friends. Try and hang out with both of them together. Like one day you could go to the mall together. Don't listen to what other people say about your boyfriend either. If you love him and he loves you then that's all that matters. Just make sure that he is what you want, and that he doesn't get you into any trouble and that you both are safe and happy! :D
