i'm dan. i'm 20. i'm from cherry hill (south nj, near philly). i'm a junior at william paterson university (north nj, near nyc) majoring in english. i want to be a music critic or at least a music-centered journalist, or snag a record deal...whichever one comes up first. i'm the president/editor of the school's literary journal and english club. i'm in love with a beautiful woman named Korey who I've been with for 2 and a half years. i just put out my first record. i'm an outspoken fat admirer and size acceptance advocate. i am living proof that a high school experience involving depression, abuse from classmates, failing grades, attempting suicide, hospitalization, and generally the shit stacked against me can all be overcome in college. i am happier than i've ever been in my whole life. feel free to ask me anything, but be warned: you're gonna hear the horrible truth. i specialize in sex and music questions. my blind spots are sports and cars.

Okay so heres the story...
Im only 14 but my boyfriend and i are convinced that we are both in love for the first time. I wanted to ask you this because i need a guy's point of view so i know what he is thinking. We havent had sex yet and we definately dont plan on it until we are older, maybe even married, but we do make out alot and we do go to "2nd base". He never seems interested in other girls and always tells me how wonderfull i am and everthing but I guess my question is, does he really mean it or does he just want action.. because he sounds serious when he says these things but some of the guys i have dated before were just jerks to me and used me. Please help if you can.. thanks a bunch and sorry for it being so long.

well, going by what you say, he seems to be cool with stopping at 2nd base, so judge him by his own actions, not by other guys' actions. listen to him if he says you're wonderful. you say he doesn't look at other girls, and you seem like him alot so i think he means it.


k.. i really love this kid john, he loves me alot too. but hes going away for 2 nd a half weeks, he said he was gonna ask me out in augest the begniging (sp). should i wait for him to ask me out? or should i just TRY to get over him?

i rate high. =)

it's just two weeks, kiddo, when he gets back, ask him out yourself and surprise him with a take charge attitude that he wouldn't expect from someone he told to wait 2 weeks for him to ask her out ;-)


if i have violated her boundarys do i deserve another chance if i got proffesinal help and relized my problems there no abuse or addiction just me not resecting her boundiers. (link)
here's the thing, my answer depends on info i don't know. the amount of space is dictated by the length of the relationship, really...if you guys have been together for a long time (a year or longer) or you sleep together, then i can help you, cuz i can say to you, spend some nights alone, have a few days in the middle of the week where you guys can relax without necessarily being together every time you have free time. if it's early into a relationship, and you guys only go out like, every friday night or once a week, i don't know what dictates space. i fear she might be trying to break up with you and not being able to put it in words. did she actually say to you "you're violating my boundaries" or is she just giving off hints? your best bet would be to do what she says...give her space, even if that means going a week or two without seeing her. if you give a her a week or two though, call and have a phone or IM conversation at least once so you can keep up with what's happening while she's taking a breather. i don't see why professional help would be in the equation unless you've entered stalker territory.


i'm 13/f and i have a really big butt & a d cup bra. i guess i'm not ugly but i dont see myself as beautiful. older guys [14 & 15 year olds] & guys my age only like me for my body & face, and when they talk to me all they look at is my boobs. idk what to do about this.. (link)
you're probably hotter than you think if so many guys stare at you. snap your fingers to get their attention back
