So last Friday was a dance at my school and I went with a girl i like. She and all of her freinds know i like her and her freinds told me if i was to ask her out, shed say yes. So i took the chance and asked her out and she said yes. So now we are dating and this has been my first relationship in well over a year so im a little rusty. This being said im a little reluctantbto saying that i love her or calling her "babe" because i dont want to rush things if you know what i mean. So I was wondering when it would be a good time to start with this and ill take any other relationship tips that you can give me. Thank you for your help and have a nice day.

well for one thing you are to young to be saying babe or honey etc.. That's not a word for any 13 year old. I have a 14 year old daughter and she doesn't say those words.. I would call her by her name..Don't rush into things..When the right time comes you will know when to call her those names.. and don't let your friends get into your relationship with this girl.. If you really like her and she really likes you it will happen one day.. That's if GOD wants it to happen.. So enjoy your young life and don't rush into things..


My husband is currently stationed overseas and I'm suppose to go there but due to custody issues and the hearing officer not having filed the order since 4 months ago I have not been able to go. Since my husband has been overseas he goes out every weekend. When I explained to him why this bothers me he snapped at me and told me I'm basically being selfish and how can I expect him to stay confined to a hotel room and not be out socializing. He also said that I can trust him but he cheated on me before because he was drunk and I'm afraid that it's either going to happen again or already did or is happening. I recently noticed he became friends with a colleague he states he met the first day he was overseas and honestly I don't like that. I don't know what to do. I'm still here battling custody with my ex and I don't know if I should continue to make any attempt to go overseas with my husband. He married me despite having 3 children from a prior relationship but he has never been married and has no children and is young. I'm 30 and he is 27. It's driving me crazy not being able to get the order filed despite the fact that I have a lawyer but now with my husband's frequent outings, I don't know if I should continue trying. (link)
I know how you feel about the feeling of your husband going out..I was like that at one time. My husband cheated on me. And now he has a son. Its very hard to forget something like that when the man that you love and care for does that to you. He feels that you don't trust him anymore. Well its hard to trust someone when they have cheated on you.Very hard to do. You have every right to be upset with what he is doing. Has he proved to you that he has changed? That's what he needs to do is prove to you that he is not cheating on you so you can gain his trust back. Good luck


I know that I probably won't get the answer I'm looking for, and I really hope my question will not be deleted. I just really need some unbiased advice on this problem.

When I have sex with my husband, I can never "finish". It lasts all of two minutes..and I'm left unsatisfied.

Could it be something to do with the fact that hes 31 and has diabetes? Or is it something we could solve more easily?

It's really starting to strain our relationship. (link)
try some foreplay first before you start having sex, thats the way me and my husband do. it gets you in the mood and him too. and it gets the blood pumping in your female body parts and look out it want belong until you pop first.


So I've been married for a year and a half now. My marriage has been soo very difficult but has gotten a lot better. I have ALWAYS had insecurities with my husband and his female friends. I know this sounds wrong but I just didnt like it when he gave them too much attention, like I didnt wanna share him. The first year of our marriage he pampered my insecurities. He just flat out stopped talking to them, I never told him to but he just decided to do it himself. So for the whole year I was obviously happy with this desicion but as assumed he wasnt cause he says I treated him like he still did. He doesnt do this anymore, he talks to them now and i told him i didnt have a problem with it. But deep down it still bothers me. I never bring it up because I dont wanna start a fight and be so immature but I cant help but to be bothered about it every day. Please dont judge me, I know this sounds ridiculous and immature especially for a married woman.

What can I do to get over this? I'm starting to think I need professional help (but I dont have that option right now, please dont suggest it) because I think I'm just dealing with it and ignoring it rather than just accepting it. Accepting it is something I have tried, Ive even tried asking him if I could get their number to talk to them (since we never see them around) and get to know them, just be friendly. But at one time he said I couldnt have anyones number, but now he says I can. When he said I couldnt the first time it really made me sad, here I am trying my hardest but it felt like he didnt care anymore. I just need to know how to get over this so we BOTH can be happy. I HaTE being so insecure about this. I wish I wasnt like this. Please help.

for one thing never hide your feelings that does no good at all. You are a women and you dersever to be treated like one. Tell him how you feel no matter how is looks at you or what he says to you.
Show him that you are not going to take his crap at all. If he loves you than he will accept what you have to say. and when you asked for the girl or girls number and he said that you don't need it. No no that does not sound good at all. sounds like he was doing something. i have been married twice my first marriage lasted me 4 years. thank god that is over with. and now i'm married again and been married for 11 years this july. and my husband now did things to me that made me mad really mad and 5 years in our marriage i just stood up one day and put my foot down and told him how i felt and the way that he was treating me was not a good thing. and now he sees that he hurt me all those years. so stand up and so your man what you are made of. let him know how it feels to be hurt.


16/f

two days ago i broke up with my boyfriend but we can continue being friends since i'm doing bad in school, so i wanted to focus during school. for my own personal reasons. and later on he decided he didn't want to get back together because he wants his freedom for a while to hang out with his friends and that he'll always love me and there's not going to be a next girlfriend. whether i believe him or not, i do somewhat believe him... because he said his dad only loved his mom for the longest time, and even though his mom is now married to someone else. his dad never stopped loving her. i cried because it was official, and so did he. but i don't feel that sad anymore, maybe because my schedule is different.. i miss seeing his family, talking to him, texting him. so i told him he can text me whenever he wants to or call and i told him not to hesitate because i will answer. and we also agreed we can visit our kids since we have four... (stuffed animals). i guess he just wants some time alone without me while we broke up, but i really do miss him. then there's a guy who i'm interested in, and he does talk to me over facebook, text, and we do sometimes talk on the phone. he also walks me to class and talks to me in person. i'm starting to like him, and what really put me down was that he said he liked this other girl (someone he hasn't met yet) and he's interested because she's pretty. then he's planning to approach her on monday, and part of me is hoping she'll reject him. later on he also told me he never went out with a girl where he liked first, and he only went out with a girl that liked him first. and since i like him first, i don't want to be "one of those girls". i'm debating on whether or not should i wait for him, and maybe he'll never come. so i don't really want to waste my time, it sucks because sometimes i wish he could hug me and stuff... because he even drives over to where i am to comfort me when i'm upset. (just like last night he drove to the park and stayed outside in the cold for 2 hours with me). now, i'm starting to think am i not pretty enough for him? why doesn't he like me? what should i do about the guy i'm interested in, and how can i get over my ex boyfriend... and is there a possible chance where i will see him again? (link)
boys don't know how they feel for one thing, they think that they want this but they don't. It seems to me that he is getting tired of being tied down with the same girl and that he wants to be with different girls. boys do these things all the time. and he says that he loves you and says that there will neve be another girl in his life. don't you dare believe that junk at all. he is only saying that becasue he knows that you want to here that. you are too young to have a full time relationship. enjoy your young life and one day when the time is right yes that special some one will come into your life and love you for who you are and not what you are.


hi 14f bf 16 xD

well yesterday i was talking to my bf I said I was going to change my hair. I told him I was going to make my hair wavy and where some makeup. He said "Me no like ;/ " and i asked him what did he meant and he said " I love your hair the way it is and You don't need make up." He said i don't like the girls with the make up that makes them look like clowns, i dont like the bright lipstick, a little eyeliner is fine but you don't need it. soo i like wearing makeup but what makeup should i do that he would approve of? I don't wear it often. Thanks!
(link)
well little ladie, i say don't wear any makeup at all, you don't want to start it at your age any ways it is bad for your skin. and i would say that you have a very nice boyfriend that is in love with how god made you. Makeup is not what makes us pretty, its who we are on the inside that makes us pretty. Be yourself that is what makes you pretty. And if he does not like that, then you don't need him at all. I hope that i have helped you . Love yourself for who you are and for what god has made of you.


22/f here. My ex, Nathan, is 24, and my current, Kyle, is 28. This is gonna be a bit long...

I was with Nathan for about 4 years on and off. He was emotionally abusive, but I was addicted to him. Being in the mental health field, I know a lot about addiction and how to overcome it. I broke up with him. We ended things on good terms, but I asked him to let me initiate contact at some point in the future. He has broken this agreement many times already with e-mails telling me how much he loves and misses me.

Now, Kyle and I dated during an off-period with Nathan, but I ended it because I wasn't ready to walk away from Nathan, and I recognized that. I am now, though, and I did...right back into Kyle's arms. Kyle is a wonderful man, and makes me very happy (and is a very good kisser ^_^). I have no intention of leaving him anytime soon.

The problem here is that as much as Kyle denies it, I know I have yet to earn his trust back because of the fiasco that happened with Nathan before. I told him I would keep him in the loop if Nathan decided to try anything, and ideally, Kyle and I would discuss the situation and tackle it as a couple/unit instead of me trying to handle it alone. (I did, however, promise that I would never put them together in any physical way...)

My questions are:
1. Should I tell Kyle about Nathan's recent e-mails?
It risks bringing up a very negative past, and I don't want the focus of our relationship to be how to get Nathan out of it.

2. Should I respond to an e-mail and ask him to leave me alone?
I'm hesitant about this because I know how he works - any attention is better than no attention - but I also know that he doesn't give up easily. The only reason I'm consiering it is that I understand that, legally, if you tell someone to leave you alone and they don't, you can file harrassment charges. I'm not angry at Nathan, or anything, I just don't want him to make my life hell anymore...that's why I broke up with him. I am, however, prepared to take legal action if necessary to get him away from me. He hurt me many times in many ways that could've been seriously psychologially damaging.

Anyway. I apologize for the length of this question, and I'm aware that none of you are lawyers. I'm just looking for some unprofessional, uninvolved feedback on this situation. (link)
To whom this may concern to. It sounds like you are stuck between two hard spots.You are a young person to be getting into a serious relationship.
I would not get in a hurry about having a full time boyfriend, and i would not go back to the guy that was very abusive to you either. That is not a good relationship. I would stay away from him and no don't answer his emails or how ever he trys to get in touch with you. And if you want to be a truthful person to this other guy then i would tell him. But only if you think that you know and trust him. To tell him these things. I would ask him where is this relationship going to before you open up and start telling him personal things in your life. Good luck.
