Q: For sometime now, I have been talking with someone online, and we just met for the first time in person...we had a really great time that night, and he even kissed me and we slept in the same bed together...but in the morning, he would kind of snub all affection I would try to give him, like he didn't want to be touched in any way...until the next night came, and then we would be kissing again...I have been in a situation before where I mistook genuine feelings that could lead to a real relationship for just wanting sex and nothing more, and I am terrified that it may be happening again...am I just being paranoid and nit-picky about myself, or was I giving too much affection too soon? And if I am (which I actually think I was giving too much) then what should I do to let him know that I didn't mean to be clingy?
for a true relationship the other has to always be ok with affection for it to be great. its ok for someone to want it more late in the day, but they can not blow off other times. just ask why he does that. guys usually want more than girls so that would make me question him, but maybe he is just the less affectionate type which isnt bad. just ask him

Q: Ok so boys mature slower than girls and girls mature faster than boys...so they say. Well I'm in a relationship and I know I'm young(14) and he is too(15) but I dnt think he feels the way I feel like I know guys dnt really think seriously until they are older but I dunno what to do I see him flirt and like he doesn't get it that i really like him it's been 2 months and I dunno what to do.
that is the perfect age to start serious dating, my boyfriend asked me out in the first week of freshman year and we have been going out over a year. just talk to him, take risks and talk about everything even very private stuff, itl connect you guys very much and if he reacts badly then its a hint. some boys mature and some dont, but give him time n talk alot n just be really sweet he will adapt and get better or whatever you call that. he is an average guy since it takes a while to get serious it usually takes a fight or two he just needs to realize how great it is to be with you. and two months is a good job keep tryin, n go out to eat fancy every month annivarsary thats what me n my boyfriend do since he doesnt have much money that way it makes him feel good. just test him and tell him things that bother you and everything you guys will connect on a much deeper level and he will mature alot faster. anything else u need or need added just say. n i hope i helped!

Q: 17/f

My boyfriend broke up with me and I am having trouble figuring out why. I met Jake when I was lifeguarding a little over a month ago and he hit on me and was like "hey beautiful" and was completely smitten (like really...haha the other guards were teasing him about it) and told the other guards he felt this connection with me, etc. He even asked me to marry him that day. He asked me out and just two weeks later we became boyfriend and girlfriend. He always told me that he could see me being his girlfriend for awhile, would text me everyday, and just was an overall really great boyfriend.

He has had A LOT of girlfriends/hook ups while I have never had a boyfriend before and only kissed two guys before him. We are really different in the sense that I'm really conscious about my grades (i have a 4.0) he barely has a 3.0, he is a "hardcore" kid or whatever and goes to hardcore shows while i'm really "preppy" or whatever. we also go to different schools and live about 20 minutes away from each other.

i brought this up the day he went out, i told him i'm not into drugs and he told me he isn't either anymore, that he used to be a bad kid but he has changed. he told me he still does smoke but only two cigarettes a day, and that i would be his incentive for him to stop. i also brought up the distance and he kept insisting it's not that far away.

everything seemed to be going pretty okay, but we only got to see each other once a week since he is a senior and his parents wanted him to get his gpa up so i could only see him on weekends. what we would basically do is watch a movie/talk/makeout. before we did anything he told me that he liked me a lot and wanted to take things slow. he also told me whenever he was kissing me that i could say "get the fuck off of me jake" and that i didnt even have to kiss him if i didnt want to and that he just liked spending time with me. he would say so many romantic things when we were kissing like "i could do this all day" one day he started to finger me and he asked if it made me uncomfortable and if it did that i could just tell him to stop.

last week i met his sister and best friend. when i asked him what they thought of me he said his sister loved me and that was the very first time his sister had like any of his girlfriends, and he said his best friend said i was "tight". for some weird reason after that day he seemed less interested in me. he didnt text me the day after and when he did text me he was really short with his answers. when i asked if something was wrong he said "no why???" i said "okay nvm" and then he seemed suddenly worried and asked "no. what's up babe?" saturday was our one month and i hung out with him on friday night, he asked me if i wanted to go out to eat and that he wanted to take me out/pay for me but when i got there it didnt seem like he wanted to so i just told him i wasnt that hungry and we just went in his basement and watched a movie/made out. he then asked me since it was like our one month if i wanted to try anything, and i said sure...he could do what he wanted but if it made me uncomfortable i would tell him to stop. he started to go under my shirt/feel my chest and i told him "i'm not ready!" and he seemed disappointed but he stopped. then he unbuttoned my pants and started to finger me on top of my underwear and asked me if i was sure i didn't want him to go under (hes always done it on top of my underwear) and i said i'm sure. then later we were making out and he put my hand on his crotch and i started rubbing it. i asked him if it felt good and he said yeah but just do it a little harder next time. then later he asked me if i wanted him to pull down his pants so i could give him a better handjob but just on top of his boxers so i said okay and i think i did a better job and i told him "i don't know what i'm doing...i havnt done this before" and i asked him if it felt good and he said yeah and i'm pretty sure he was hard too so i could tell.

when we were just cuddling and watching the movie i kept asking him about his sexual experiences and for some reason it seems to have bothered him. i asked him if he remembered his first blowjob...if he has hooked up with a lot of girls...if they were from his school...if they were spontaneous hookups...if it was true that he hooked up with this girl in the guard office closet. before i left he kissed me and i was about to leave and i asked him "you liked everything? like it felt good?" and he was like "yeah! we'll talk about this later though you'll freeze." (it was raining/cold outside)

the next day he broke up with me in a text saying that i didnt seem comfortable with his lifestyle at all...but that i was an amazing girl and that i was gonna make a guy really happy and all of this bs. i was really angry and called him and he kept saying "you didn't seem comfortable about my past...plus we are too far away and only get to see each other once a week (something i reminded him the day he asked me out and he said he didnt care) and said i don't seem comfortable with his drinking (something said i didnt mind unless he drove) and said its hard for him to have a girlfriend because he needs to get his grades up and focus on college. i said i could come over more if he wants and could help him study, etc. but he wasnt even trying to make it work and just seemed set on breaking up with me. i asked if the questions i asked last night had anything to do with him breaking up with me and he said sort of.

so i'm basically asking...why did he break up with me? do guys hate it when girls ask about their past? he was COMPLETELY head over heels for me before...i cannot stress this enough. (his friend/the other gaurds would tell me this and would tell me how cool it was that people could see that we were in a relationship together on facebook) was it possible that his friend didn't like me anymore and was just lying when he said that he thought i was cool? i asked him if there was another girl and he said no...i asked him if he didnt think i was pretty anymore and he kind of scoffed and said that wasn't it at all and that he told me from the start that he thought i was beautiful. was i being too nosy asking all of those questions? or did he break up with me because he thought i gave a bad hand job/thought i was a bad kisser/thought i was too inexperienced? i also asked him if he wanted to be friends with benefits and he said he doesnt do that and kept mentioning "pressure" or something when he was with me...he also says that he felt that we went out so quickly and that he wishes we got to know each other better before we became boyfriend and girlfriend. the breakup seemed random when he seemed into me the night before/we went farther than we have ever gone before. he seemed so set on having a long serious relationship with me. what is the deal?

by the way, saturday he went to a hardcore show or whatever and a girl gave him a blow job im pretty sure. they are talking and im pretty sure going to be hooking up. i feel so hurt that he went from me to this slut.
thanks for the inbox. n im so sorry about all that, n iv actually ben in the same situation except he lived over two hours away. the best thing to do is try and get over him. some guys are like that where they just want to go far, they cover it up by being sweet and going slow right away. but you guys should have got to know eachother and held off a bit. he is a player which also proves why he was so uncomfortable about talking about his past, boyfriends should be totally open about what they have done. he probly just broke up because he is used to getting more, and since you two are very oppasite. when he says the pressure it might mean that he misses smoking? sexual stuff? he was trying to be nice tho he did somewhat the right thing. you can find someone so much better that is perfect for you. especially him moving on so fast? thats bad. and im sorry im really out of it right now i will add more later is you need? i hope i helped!

Q: Well i really like this guy i told him i liked him he said he didnt like me just only as a friend but i really like him. I always have and i dont think ill stop liking him.
What should i do?
keep talking to him, and flirt only a very little bit and eventually he will probly start likeing you back :)

Q: so i guess the title for this question wasnt a very nice one haha but it got you reading it. well i do love my boyfriend to death we have been dating for 6 months. im 16 hes 15. theres just a few small problems. everything will be going fine, then sudenly a few weeks ago he wanted to take a break. all the lovey dovey stuff stopped n he really didnt seem to care about me anymore. well now we are back together and all the lovey dovey stuff has started again. he says he loves me more than anything. thats what he said before the breakup too. most days he is great and i love him so much. i couldnt imagine being with another guy. but some days he is in the worst mood and he will practically ignore me. i really try to help him out and i put up with so much stuff just for him. he is very outgoing so its not like him to be quiet and i always think its something i did. but he gets in different moods all the time. is he bipolar? he acts completely normal other than the mood swings and is captain of the football and lax team. hes popular and a really funny guy. but he also has told me that he hears voices in his head. he doesnt act like its a big deal and yesterday a voice told him to jump off a building. he obviously didnt listen haha but he doesnt act like his mental problems effect him much but the break and his mood swings make me think maybe they do. i dont want him to start listening to these voices in his head or go crazy one day. and i dont want his bipolar watever you want to call it mood swings, to effect are relationship either. i know he has suffered from depression and possibly still is. but he acts like hes the happiest guy in the world. you would never guess. does he have schizophrenia or bipolar or something else? any advice?
he might just have an anxiety disorder. mood swings and hallucinations are caused by it even though anxiety disorder is hard to deal with he will be ok just go to the doctor n theyl take it from there. btw he doesnt sound schizophrenic or bipolar and please dont call him psycho..
