Q: 16/f

I have liked my friend for over a year now. Almost two years. We're really close...or we were. He's 18 though. I've known him since I was a freshman and he was a junior. I'm a junior now and he's in college. He left to go to college like last week.
In September we told each other we liked each other and all that. We wouldn't go out because he was gonna leave and all that. We would talk all the time and then it went on to the sweet stuff like he cares about me and could picture marrying me, ect. So before we even told each other how we felt I was crazy about him. I had a boyfriend and I still couldn't get over him. So pretty much, I liked the guy so much. I don't want to say love because I'm never too sure but he's the guy I've felt most for.
Well one night we ended up making out.
We were cool after that. I found out he also liked another girl but that didn't really bother me too much because he knew I liked someone else also. I thought about it a lot though because I liked him so much and he started texting her like he texted me.
Well then it started going back to normal again with us. We'd talk on the phone all night and text but he told me he liked me but only as a close friend. I was confused but I went with it.

He eventually would bring up sex and stuff. He knows I don't want it. He always knew about my problems with guys because I told him about what guys have done and all that. Anyway, he would eventually start texting dirty to me and stuff. Then it went back to I like you. Actually he was telling me he loved me and wished he was with me and that I was older. Not like that whole in love kinda thing. He said not like a girlfriend but he did love me and care about me.

Ok so I never understood how he felt. I just assumed he did like me but was confused, just didn't like me too much or maybe he was just messing with me. All I know is that he does not like me as much as I like him. I never told him how much I liked him though. You know, don't wanna weird him out.

Well I didn't talk to him all this week because he left. But he texted me last night and we were talking and stuff. It seemed totally fine and it was really sweet. We texted from like 9pm to 5am. Except I had fallen asleep on him but he texted me before class and after.

He texted me today around 5pm and we texted for a couple hours. It was all about sex this time. Well then later he texted me around 9 and it was the same. Some of it was nice and stuff but then it was like what he wanted to do with me and all that.
Then he called me so we talked on the phone for about half an hour. He tried starting with all that again but when he started like asking questions, most of my answers were, "I don't know" or "maybe". He told me he loved me though and I was like, "mhmm sure I believe it." Then he started going on about my trust issues. He was going on about I didn't trust me two last boyfriends. I mean I think I have reasons not to. One almost raped me and the other cheated. So he went on about how annoying it was when all I said was "I don't know" and "maybe".
Well then he called me a tease. Jokingly, he's brought it up before. He says I am because I only let him make out with me and only have a taste of me and not the whole thing. Anyway, he called me a jerk. I don't know why and he started talking about how he was a player. I agreed but then he was like, "Yeah I break your heart?" I said, "mhmm" I was kinda crying when he was saying this stuff. He couldn't hear it though, thank God. But he was talking about how I'm one of the few girls he's been talking to, ect. He told me I was the 2nd girl he's ever made out with though. I already knew that but still. This stuff kinda hurt because he kept saying he wanted to ask me out when he got back in May. I was like, "Yeah..because that would soo work. Only like 3 months together." He said, "Yeah but you're graduating." I said, "Yeah, in like a year." He asked if I liked him and I said, "Idk" and if I wanted to talk to him. So eventually I got off the phone and he said, "Good night. I love you" Then I just said bye.
All those things he was saying. I don't understand and he's being confusing. I don't even know if he cares or if he just wants sex out of me.
So he texted me after that saying, "I'm so done with you." I said, "I don't even know wth I did" He said, "Your so ugghh anyway, I'm done talking to you." I said, "All you want is sex and I actually kinda liked you. But do whatever you want." He said, "Yeah I know all I want is sex its so wrong so I will get it right." I said, "Just don't do that to me again." He said, "Do what?" I said, "Make me that upset." Then he sent this long message saying, "I'm sorry this is 100% my fault. I feel so ashamed about what I have done with you and to you and all those bad things I said. I'm asking God and you to forgive me and I will never do this to you again. I am sorry I hope I didn't hurt you."

So this was really long and I'm sorry but I am so confused and hurt. I might be kinda pathetic for crying for so long but yeah. I still like him so much but what should I do? I don't want to lose him but I'm afraid he really didn't care about me like that. Thank you sooo much
its obvious that his hormones are raging. he wants sex. & he'll continue being moody like that until he has convinced yu into doing it. 1) he's trying to make yu feel guilty like yu did something wrong; in other words,convincing yu to feel as if yu owe him or need to try to make it up to him someway. 2) he's also trying to make yu feel SORRY for him; in other words, convincing yu to make him feel better somehow. 3) he's being sweet; as if to reel yu in so he can have a higher chance of hitting home run. in all.... he's trying everything possible to get in yur pants. dont, under any circumstance, let him because it'll be worse than how yu feel now. he's a college freshman... of course he's looking for a little fun. but dont waste yur time. he's not worth it.

Q: Kay so I'm still in high school, there's this girl that my friend likes alot. But the girl asked me to star texting her so I did I haven't met her in person yet but I think I already like her, I know weird huh? But I dunno what to tell my buddy cause I gave him a hard to for going out with her when our friend liked the girl as well, what should I do? As well I'd like to know how should I start a conversation with her that won't bore her or be weirded out? Thanks for help!
well if in yur eyes its wrong for yur friend to go out with her because yur other friend liked her how is yu liking her an exception? or even fair? & anyways yu might start liking her but honestly yu should meet her before yu start realy liking her 'cuz people are waaaay different through text & phone than in person.... but i think yu should talk with yur friends before anything gets serious......

Q: Hey. So I'm an 18 year old girl and I have never been in a relationship before. I really don't give care about that, It will happen when it wants to. But I'm worried about what may happen when I do finally get a boyfriend. I hate having people touch me. I can't wait for hugs to be over most of the time and I enjoy my personal space. Im not a bitch if your wondering, Im actually nice and friendly in a very shy way, it's just the space thing. What I'm wondering is, do you think that I will still be like that if I'm with a guy I really like? or do you think my space issues mixed with my horrible shyness can/will effect my relationships? I'm leaning towards I won't give a shit anymore... but still I tend to notice when people sit too close to me or I freak mentally when hugs last way too long. Ughhh :/ Help?
im like that also!
but i think that when you have a boyfriend that every thing changes..
i mean if your not comfortable around him,
then whats the point?
but everything takes time & when you do get a boyfriend then he should understand how you feel & will give you your space or whatever.
that's my point of view..

Q: This guy and I have been going out for four months now. Before we were together I was a virgin, and i planned to stay that way until marriage. He forced me into having sex with him. I kept telling him no but he kept on doing things to turn me on. At times I would try to push him off and he would pretend to stop and then start back up again. I was so stupid not to walk away, I should have. I should have broken up with him,and the thing is I have tried many times. I prayed about it for help and i kept firm, but the thing is he won't give up on me (or lets say let me). I guess he says I'm his first real girlfriend because his past relationships were all just hit and quit. He never took any of the girls seriously. I feel that he is too controlling. I understand the situation I'm in, but I just want to get out of it. I told him before that what he did was wrong and he knew it was true and apologized and tried to show it, but it didn't last too long because each time he forced me. I could even run at times trying to get away, but he would chase me. And then everytime he would pull my pants down, i would pull them back up. Its just too much for me. I feel that he just wants me for sex..and that is the way it is. I told him this before but like anyone like him they will deny. I want out, but at the same time i'm scared..i'm not sure why...and then i feel like i love him..but then i feel like I don't...i just want my normal life back....and all the things he does for me like buying me three phones when mine broke or got stolen....or him being faithful to me and just being so clingy...its just too much for me...or walking over to my house everyday just to hang out (not do anything)....It just feels like he is doing it for something in return...i'm so sick of it...I know this is an unhealthy relationship...I just need to be strong and get out of it as soon as possible because he will keep on forcing me to do things I don't want to...and thats going to be unhappy for me....I just need some advice on how to get out...I do want to but i'm not sure what is holding me back....thank you for your advice
yur obviously not happy & yu deserve the best. LEAVE HIM. i always say that sometimes yu have to forget how yu feel; & remember what yu DESERVE. think about it. if he truly loved yu then he wouldnt be pressuring or forcing yu into having sex. especially if he knew what yu believed was right for yu & that was waiting till marriage. yur prince charming will wait for yu.

Q: Guys are nice to me And if I ask them out they say sorry. That is about it. What should I do to make guys like me and not say that I am stupid? I am a 13 year old female. I am the onlyone in my grade that hasn't ever had a boyfriend.
honeyy. im 16 & still havent had a boyfriend.
but instead of asking them out, just ask a group of them, with yur girls of course, & chill out of school or somewhere where yu can be yurself..
& honestly boys yur age arent really worth dating. just give it time & someone will like yu.

Q: ok i have a crush on this guy at school and i realy like him but im not sure if he likes me, he often smiles at me randomly if i pass him in the passages on my way to class and if i walk past him at break my friends say he looks at me with a smile and not a look like ow its her but more like his face brightins up, im not the kind of girl wich all the guyz have a crush on and some people say he is always friendly with the girls but some say they think he likes me.if he sometimes walks past me he will start a convosation, come to think of it 9 out of 10 times he ussualy start talking to or he give a smile and softly starts to laugh,the problem is im not sure if he likes me or if he realy likes me or if he is just being friendly again,i realy like him please help.
xoxox
well..
i had the same situation & i never did anything about it & now he graduated.. :(
anywayss.
when yu see him coming yur wayy in the hallways, just 'accidenttly' bump into him.
& if he smiles at yu or just tries to start a convo., then there must be SOMETHING there.
but if yur not shy, then just talk to him...

p.s. a little flirting helpss ;)

Q: i found this guy on facebook. he's so cute and i want to meet him really bad. we have like 10 mutual friends. would it be weird if i friend requested him and then started talking to him? and like what would i say? not to sound conceited but i'm a pretty girl. so what would is ay? i don't want to sound desperate and/or creepy. thankyouu.
well..
on facebook EVERYBODY adds me even people that i dont even know.
& yu never know he could end up accepting yur requestt.
nothing's desperate or creepy about a friend request..
oh! & if yu would like to know how he is then look at his statuses. it says alot about a person.

Q: 16/f
My bf is so asking for it,I don't know what to do...Every time we're on a date we both get turned on like crazy and it's been like this for a while.We want to have sex soon and it's gonna be my first time,but I'm a bit scared.I told him that and he said he'll be gentle and careful with me...I really love this guy but I'm quite insecure and indecisive about this.Should I have sex with him if I feel like it?I know only I can decide when's the right time for me to do it.Still there are so many dilemmas,like,what if the condom breaks? that causes insecurity...what should I do? I really want him and can't hold back anymore.
if your having soo much doubt & fear then your definatly not ready. just give it time.. & not to be rude but if your bf is pressuring you to do it, then he's not worth giving into. the right guy will understand when your ready or not.

Q: (boyfriend is 20 soon to be 21)
We've been dating for about a month, we plan on a long future, we're in a 'serious' relationship, and have sex.

As everyone knows christmas is coming up, I need ideas for a gift.
I know I'm definately getting him a ring pop & a pack of gummy bears. (Inside joke between him & I.) I was wondering if it'd be okay just to do like a little box of candies/desserts. Like get a small cute little box, put a bunch of candy and homemade cookies and brownies, etc in the box and wrap it, and get him like a gift card to go with it? Does that sound like too little? Any ideas of what kind of candy, or desserts? (And on sort of a limited budget.)
Thanks!
well if you guys are on an intimate level.. you can start off by giving him his favorite sweets & champange and then later on slip into something sexy, like a sexy santa outfit. & maybe a little role playing?? thats something i would guess a 21 year old might like to enjoy...
