Q: I don't know what to do with him! I found out from my bff that my bf made a facebook group thing about our relationshp. I went and red a few things on it and it is personal and nothing anybody should know but us so I told him I knew he had a secret he was keeping from me but not what it was so he would tell me or something but he didn't. i kinda thought that he posted stuff and didn't think it was bad and I wanted to give him chances to say so but he just said he didnt have no secrets so i went back to read the rest and he had made it private only so now it is hidden from me.

I guess what I am asking is if he didn't think this was wrong why did he hide it when i found out? He still denies everything and now i got no proof because i cant see it anymore!!! i have been crying about this and i feel betrayed like he has a secret life on facebook or something! should i stay with him if he isn't going to be honest and still hides things?

Sorry if this is too long!
First things first: A relationship is based on communication and trust. He's doing neither; so right there, that's not good. What kind of personal things? If he says anything about your intimate moments or things you told him in confidence, or pretty much anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's a red flag that he cannot be trusted at all. When you confronted him, you said that he said he did not have any secrets, will, you even said yourself that when you went back to go check, it was all hidden. He obviously knows that you know and saw it. Let me tell you, a guys first reaction is to deny, deny, deny! Don't ask why...believe me, no one knows why. You're asking "if he didn't think this was wrong why did he hide it when I found out", to tell you the truth, he knows it's wrong. He knows very well what he's doing. If he didn't think it was wrong, he wouldn't have hid it from you. Why did he make this group in the first place? That's something I cannot answer because to me that is a very rude thing to do. A relationship is very personal and should only be shared between the two people in the relationship. How old are you both? If he's around the 13-18 area, I can tell you that men are just VERY immature at that age. They do the most stupid and idiotic things. However, that does NOT excuse him from doing this. You say you have no "proof". Yes you do! You yourself is proof enough. You saw it. Your bff saw it. Good enough. There's no need to show this boy proof of what you saw with your own eyes! Tell him how it made you feel and tell him it hurt you that he didn't come clean. Ask him why he created this group about your relationship. If he does start to deny it, you do what you feel is right. I cannot tell you whether or not to stay with him because that's solely your decision and yours only. If he comes clean, you, as his girlfriend, have every right to tell him to take it down because it makes you uncomfortable. If he refuses, again, it's all up to you. Your mature enough to have a boyfriend, your mature enough to make decisions about him. I understand why you're upset, I would be too. What he's doing is 100% wrong. No need to cry because in the end everything will work out, if not then "it's not the end." (:

Feel free to ask me any other questions you may have.
I hope I helped you!
Good luck!

Q: I been dating this girl for about 4 months now and we've been having sex all the time. I'm 22 and she told me she just turned 18 when we hooked up at first. Last night she stayed at my house and was like she needed to tell me something and told me she's really 15. I dont know what to do because that's illegal and I dont want to be put in jail for this. I'm getting paranoid she's going to tell her folks and her parents are going to press charges since she's underage / a minor. What do I do?
This sounds similar to a situation my friend's cousin was in. He had sex with a girl who said she was 18 (he was 25), it turns out the girl lied and she was 14. Girls these days pass off as being older because of makeup and maturity levels. The girls parents' found out and he was arrested and is now a registered sex offender :/. Don't mean to scare you...but, this happens all of the time. Now I'm going to tell you, get a LAWYER! DO NOT tell this girl you are getting one. Just go speak with one in your area (it's free) and tell him/her the situation...and please, again, DO NOT tell this girl anything. And DO NOT dump her yet, that may cause her to tell her parents and then your screwed. Unfortunately, the legal system favors girls in these type of situations. But, by getting a lawyer, you could be saving yourself. So, again, please DO NOT dump this girl yet, DO NOT have sex with her anymore (make up an excuse; it could be used against you later if you continue to have sex with her..), and DO NOT tell her your plans about getting a lawyer. Good luck! I feel so bad for guys like you...it's the girls' fault 100% yet your the one's that deal with the crap!

Message me if you need any help or anything else!

Q: I am kind of old fashioned when it comes to sex...not that I don't believe in sex before marriage but I can't just go have sex with anyone and think its no big deal, and I'm sure a large part of that is because I'm a virgin. however I'm in college and guys obviously aren't into that mindset. I have no problem doing other things, but to be honest i'm never totally into them because I feel like I don't even know the guys. Idk how do I deal with this when no guys want to wait on sex?
Just be who you are. I'm in the same position as you. Just like the person below me said, people view sex as a way of getting to know eachother these days. Which is totally wrong. What happend to getting to know a girl by learning her likes/dislikes, etc. What happend to courting a girl for a while until she was ready? You're in control of your own body! YOU only do what makes YOU comfortable. If you don't want to do something, then don't. Some guy's may not want to be with you because your not easy, and some will respect you. There are really good guys out there who respect women who don't just have sex with random guy's. It's a good quality, don't lose it!!! Believe me, most of those girls will regret it in the future when no guy wants to marry them because they've been around to everyone. Guy's grow out of it in mid 20's to early 30's (the normal one's at least..).

Q: heyyyy!
alrighty soo
for the past few weeks i have been doing very good as far as not texting bob. now let me tell you, there were a lot of times i wanted to text him, but i didn't! i was very proud of myself haha. so i dont THINK i like him anymore, but yet i seem to think about him like everyday... i don't know what's going on with that. so! yesterday around eight p.m. which is SOOOOO weird because he NEVERRRR texts me first. and he didn't even want anything. we went back on forth on what to talk about and im all like pick somethinggggg. and he finally goes why me? and i go because i end up talking about stupid stuff and he goes so. wow hes dumbbb. but then he was like: i just thought of when we first met. (((now that night was sooooo crazy, and in four days, it will be eleven months ago... i know its sad that i still remember but oh well))) and i was like oh...uh... do you remember like all of it? and he goes ya i do. OH MAN! thats... WOW. and i was like talk about awkward and he goes ya forreals you are. WTFF i was like wtf you just said i was awkward and he goes yes. and i go you dont just tell somebody their awkward. i could tell you what you are, but i'm not gonna do that. (AND I GO SOO MAD) and then he was like im sorry i didnt mean to be mean and then i go whatever that night was not my fault thats all i have to say. and he goes what night? :( (hes obviously so stupid) and i go that night we met and he goes ok? and i go you make me so mad sometimes. and he goes I'm sorry I don't mean to and I already know you don't like me anymore. and i go ha really? and when did i say that? and he goes I just think that. and i go uh why? and he goes idk you just don't seem like it? and i go Well then i already know you don't like me anymore. (which i don't, i was just retaliating.) and he goes why? and i go i dont know am i right? and he goes i dont know am i? and i go i dont know but am i right? and he goes idk!?? so basically i think he know, but he just doesn't wanna tell me, before i tell him. ??? i don't know!!!!!!! ugh we texted for like four hours and then i said i was going ot sleep and he didnt text back.

weirdddddddd!
eh, help me out?
thanks a ton.
Sorry for taking long! I started school recently :( haha.

That's good that you stopped texting! That works on some guys (obviously this guy) because they hate being ignored to a point.. when you do it, they think about you a lot and end up texting you to see what's up/why you haven't texted.

Okayy well, he obviously does want you to say it first..don't know why though. With guys, they feel if they let any type of emotion out..their weak. Which is of course wrong, but hey, that's guy's for ya!
But anyway, it's possible he does like you and is too shy to say it. Or, maybe he doesn't. Too bad he won't tell you! Or you can just go through the old fashioned way and ask a friend to ask him.

However, since he did text you first that's a good sign! Another good sign: He talked about the past.
So, judging from that..it's possible he may have some feelings.

Your other inbox:
It's hard to forget the past. And, that doesn't make you stupid!
Believe me, I've been in your position before. You're neither stupid nor naive. You're just a normal teenage girl! I would say...about 95% of girls go through this all often haha.
But aww, yeah he seemed so sweet!
Honestly, there's not much more advice to give on these 2 inboxes. So, just make sure you make your decisions wise ones. And ALWAYS get to know someone before you have a relationship and/or friendship. You can also just weigh the Pro's and Con's of situations.

Fill me in on stuff that goes on :) haha
Thanks for the inboxes!
Have a good weekend!!


Q: ya know what really bothers me about him?
is the fact that i always text him first. i know that sounds dumb, but it's true. and i don't know why i do, i just kinda give in to temptation. and i hate how a little less than half the time he doesn't reply back. now i know he could be busy and stuff, but still! i find time. i just HATEEEEE when he doesn't reply. it makes me so mad. lol sorry i sound stupid. and i also really hate is when i tell him stuff like in details (kinda) he just puts ok.
or when i ask him why on stuff he just puts idk.
i hate itttt!

why do you think he does that???
again, thanks and sorry i sound dumb!!
haha (:
Oh man! I've had this problem so many times. It happens to everyone! Especially with guys.

Okay..from what I noticed..guy's tend not to respond back unless they feel they need and/or want to. Unlike girls, they don't care much for texting..which leads to them sometimes ignoring or not answering you.

My situation: I liked this guy..and he barely never texted me first..I always did it! It bothered me a lot. I'd tell him to text me first because I don't know if I'd be bothering him or not..he texted me first for like 2 days then stopped! I was so mad at him for doing this frequently. On top of that..he would often ignore me when I texted too. When I confronted him about the whole ignoring/not texting me first thing..he said "I don't have to text you all the time so get over it and don't be mad ok?" I was so mad..I just stopped talking to him for days. Wasn't he rude? The sad truth is..a lot of guy's are like that! And don't see any problem with it.

Here are a few links to yahoo sites that I looked at when I wanted answers too:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060724030117AAzs7lt
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090820205836AAcG6jC

I don't agree with some people said about why men ignore texts..but it's just their opinions.

It may not mean he's mad, it may not mean he's not interested, it may not mean he's doing it to hurt you, and it may mean he just doesn't feel like talking at the moment. Whatever it is, just ASK! That's all you can do because believe me..you can't force them to text back, unfortunately.

Good luck, hope I helped! :). You don't sound dumb! Every girl in the world has these problems! Including me haha.

Feel free to ask more :)!

Q: hello (:
well the thing i was most shocked about was when he said, "cause i would never let anything happen to you". i don't know why, but it really got to me... do you think i should fall for it? because i really don't know what to do anymore...

what did you think about that?
and everything else /:
and agian, thank you sooo much for your help with everything!
Hi :)!

Honestly, it's obvious why you would fall for it. So would I! And many other girls. I'm not going to say no..because, maybe he actually is sincere.

The reason why I really dont think you should believe him 100% is because of what went on in the past with him. I would suggest just to not get too emotionally attached to this type of guy. By doing that (With this guy only) it's going to lead to heartbreak. So, "keep your guard up" just a little! I'm not saying be completely closed and not tell him anything and don't believe him..because, that'd be horrible. Just keep it 50/50 with him!

Here's a site on "How To Spot A Player"..maybe it'll help, haha:
http://www.ehow.com/how_4930561_spot-a-player.html

Okay! No problem :) I'm going to answer your other question now!


Q: heey, i'm back!
well out of no where i texted him saying hey can you describe me in three words and he said
best friend ever
ha, weirdddddd!
well okay so i've tried SO HARD to not to him. well lets name him bob. i've told myself over and over again that i should stop talking to bob for a while. but it never works, i give in to temptation. well yesterday i texted him (of course) and we were talking about this haunted house thing at this place near us that happens all of october. and i was like i wanna go but i'm too scared (which is VERY true) and he was like well ill go with you and i was like im scared! and he goes you dont gotta be if im there and i go ha are you sure about that and he goes positive and i go why? and he goes cause and i go cause why and he goes cause i wouldnt let anything happen to you. and i was like aw good to know and he goes ya. and that was it. AHHHHHHHHH!!
well then i was telling him about this guy i went out with in the first of the summer and then i broke up with him and how he's STILL not over me now and i also put isn't that horrible?! and what does bob say? he says no i can understand why he still loves you

WTF what does he mean by that?! ugh
please help me as much as possible
and im sorry to keep having these problems lol
Hey :)!

Well he is being very sweet towards you..which is, of course, great. However! Before, in the last advice thing, we talked about the whole sex thing. Basically, I know this may be what you don't want to hear..but..he may be doing it because he still wants to have sex. It's very rare a guy will give up easily. As I said, guy's will do anything to have sex.

Is he into you: I know this may seem stupid..but sometimes it helps a lot! Here are some sites that will give you a hint if he's REALLY into you or just your body:
http://ezinearticles.com/?Is-He-into-Me?-5-Proven-Ways-to-Find-Out&id=742557
http://www.yelp.com/topic/los-angeles-is-he-into-me-or-not
http://www.articlesbase.com/relationships-articles/is-he-into-me-know-the-little-clues-of-his-interest-1216527.html

And finally: This is called "Is he into me enough to go out with eachother or does he only just like me a little or as a friend?:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090818063213AALkPfL

When he said "No I can understand why he still loves you":
That's a sign of flirting. He's basically saying that you're wonderful enough to make him not stop loving you still. Again, he may be just doing this on purpose.

These situations are hard mainly because you don't know a guy's true intention. I think he'd be a good boyfriend if he matured and everything. If you do end up dating him sometime...make sure you make him WAIT for sex no matter what.

What can you do as of right now? Maybe ask him why he's being so nice, ask him about a relationship, ask him ANYTHING! Asking is the only way you'll understand because guy's can be quite good at hiding their true feelings and what they really want.

Don't be sorry!!I'm here to give advice haha.

Good luck, let me know what goes on :D

Q: Hey,

I met this guy the other night, we were all hanging out at my friends apartment. Anyway, I met this guy and we were talking the whole night. I walked to my friends apartment because it was only like 3 blocks away from where I live. As I was telling everyone I was leaving the guy I was talking to said he was walking me back because he didn't think it was right/safe for me to walk back by myself at 2:00 in the morning. (which I thought was very nice of him considering we just met) So once we got back to my place we just started talking and we were talking for about 2 hours. Like really communicating and just talking about a lot of stuff. I felt like we had an instant connection. He asked if he could have my number and I gave it to him. He also asked me if I had a boyfriend. I said that I didn't, and he said "well why not?" and I laughed and said "I don't know." Then he just smiled. As he was getting ready to leave, we hugged goodbye. About 10-20 minutes later I get a text and it was him saying that he was home and that he had a good time tonight and it was nice meeting me. I said that I had a good time too and that it was nice meeting him as well.

Anyway, he friended me on facebook, and I noticed he was in a relationship. :( And now I don't know what to do. I don't want to break him and his girlfriend up because that's is NOT right. But I feel like we had a connection that could lead somewhere.
I really don't know what I'm asking. Haha, I guess I just don't know why he was asking if I was in a relationship/for my number if he has a girlfriend.

I'd rather not have you say he is a player because he wasn't trying to get in my pants or do anything like that.
It seems he has a huge interest in you! The fact that you guys talked all night and felt comfortable with eachother, considering you just met, is great. The whole hair thing..is definitely cute! And is a sign of flirting. I know for a fact, he likes you!

Why'd he ask you if you had a boyfriend?: Because,again, he LIKES you! When a guy is direct and asks right away if you have one..then he definitely is showing an interest. That the simplest way I can explain it to you.

Same goes for asking you for your number. It just means he would like to further his time with you and get to know more about you.

Facebook: I've heard this so many times! It says he's "In A Relationship". There could be many explanations for that.
1) He could've gotten out of a relationship recently and forgot to change it (guy's aren't like girls..they don't update facebook and everything 24/7)
2) He could've simply just forgot!

Honestly, if he added you on facebook..it's common sense that when he added you, you'd look at his profile (Any smart guy would know that, haha). If he had a girlfriend and didn't want you to know, he would've hid that. Since he didn't, I highly doubt he has one. Also, he asked for your number AND walked you home...if he had a girlfriend, again, he'd try and hide it from you.

Why don't I think he has a girlfriend?: You said for me not to think he's a player. So, obviously, you didn't get that vibe from him. If he's a genuine guy and all..he wouldn't have a girlfriend and do all this.

What can you do?: To be 100% sure he doesn't have a girlfriend, ASK! Don't just look at facebook and think he has one right away. Text, call, or hang out with him and simply ask what's on your mind! I'm sure he'll clear it all up for you.


Hope I helped! :)
Good luck. Thankyou for the inbox.
Feel free to ask for anymore advice!

Q: okaay this is getting baddd.
and to top it all of yesterday i swore i saw at leaat twenty condom commercials in one day. and if thats a sign i'm screwed, oh and i had a dream that his mom walked in on us doing it (his mom works at my school) and the next day i went to school and she suspended me for having sex with her son. baaaaad dream.
okay so last night we were texting again and it turns out he's done it once. now i've told him time and time again that if were not going out NOTHING is going to happen. he clearly doesn't understand. and i've told him that i don't do friends with benefits and he was like well i could be your only one and i was like i dont think so. so we were talking and i he wanted to know something and i wouldn't tell him so he goes just do it come on i mean i already told you i would have sex with you now just tell me something and i was like you would? why? and he goes why not i mean i like you and i just would. and i go well maybe we should stop talking or not be friends because you clearly just want sex and he goes no i still want to be your friend thats more important. and then later we were talking about hanging out and he goes totally, what do you want to do and i go hmm i dunno and he goes :) ill bring a condom and i go oh my jesus and he was like is that a ok ill be waiting? and i go not exactly and i go why do you want me to do it with you so bad and he goes cause i wanna thats why.....its ok i can just not i mean it was an idea thats all and then he goes im just saying im gona kiss you and keep on kissing you and isk what happens from there you can slap me or something but it would be work it (WHAT THE HECK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??! WHAT DOES HE MEAN IT WILL BE WORTH IT?!?!?! AHHHH) AND AHHH he starting to creep me out and i go can i bring my friend and he goes uhh if you want..... so do i still bring a condom? and i go i already said were not doing it! especially in public! and he goes well lets go to my house and i go fuck that and he goes how about the mall in the dressing room
wow hes fucking stupid.
and i go why do you want ME, i'm nothing special REALLY! and he goes ya you are and i go whatever dont lie to me but seriously why?! and he goes im not lying and cause idk i just want you for some reason.

and that was it because i fell asleep.
but ya i'm screwed and i'm definetly not going ANYWHERE with him ALONE. soooo help?
and btw earlier i had asked him how much he liked me from 1-10 and he goes 7 maybe more.

hes really starting to make me mad.

and please dont tell tell me to stop talking to him or something like that because i really cant, i've tried time after time. and also you've said you can't tell me what to do, but i just want your advice and opinions because its really been helping me and you've been doing a great job(:

so h e l p?
Thankyou! :).

Okayy. Honestly, seeing the commercials and having the dreams don't really mean anything. It's most likely a coincidence. Condom commercials are ALWAYS on! You're just paying more attention to the condom commercials now, because sex was brought up in a recent conversation.
The dream: Again, sex was brought up in a recent conversation..so your dream is just playing off of whatever you're thinking when you fall asleep! Here's a link to a site if you'd like to look up meanings of the dream though: http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/
(Great site!)

I've read through what you wrote twice..and honestly, he's making it very obvious that ALL he wants is sex. He said from a 1-10 he gives you a 7? If he liked you as much as he say's he does..it wouldn't be a 7.

It's very good that you told him you're not interested in the friends with benefits stuff. However, he keeps trying to push the whole sex thing..which, I'm sure, is making you very uncomfortable. Tell him that! Make sure he knows you aren't comfortable with him pushing the whole sex thing. He's basically trying, in a non-force way, to convince you to have sex with him. Why? Because I'm sure he does like you! But, he's a young boy..what is he thinking about when he see's you? "She's a girl, She's hot, I'm horny, I'll do her." Haha. That's the extent of his thinking. And, in his mind you're playing hard to get, so it's VERY possible he just want's to be the guy who actually got you to do it, but that depends because not all guy's think like that. Just remember: Stick to what you believe in!!

Now, when you said "Can I bring a friend?"..he probably thinks that you all are going to have sex..why do I say that? Because he mentioned bringing a condom even after you said that. Which right away shows all he wants is sex.
Remember this: Guy's will tell you ANYTHING they think you want to hear just to have sex with you. Sounds desperate right? Well, that's how they are!

When he was saying he was going to kiss you and everything and you can slap him if he doesn't stop? I'm sorry..but that's weird! What did he mean when he said it'd be worth it? He meant that kissing you would just make him happy. Although, you already know he wants way more than that. "I just want you for some reason.." he wants you sexually, ONLY.

I agree with you on the whole not hanging out with him alone thing. That could cause not only the friendship to end..but it can cause you heartbreak. And even worse, he may even try to force himself on you because obviously this guy wants sex badly. So, be careful and always hang around public places with a bunch of people when/if you're around him. (Mall, Park, School, etc.)

If he keeps asking you to have sex with him..I strongly suggest that you limit your time talking to him, because I know you don't want to stop talking to him. And! I suggest that you make it very clear, even if you have to call him or see him to tell him, and make sure he knows you want a relationship before sex!

Good luck!
Feel free to inbox me to ask me anything else and/or tell me what happens haha.

Q: ahhhhhhhhhh
so much has happened between me and him/:
like last night we were texting all night and i was like are you a virgin? and he didn't answer me but he was like i knew you were gonna ask that! and i'm guessing you had sex with that one guy right (i didn't, long story) wow and you barely knew him, you could have just asked me. and i was like what is that supposed to mean?! and he was like think about it and i was like so now you think i wanna have sex with you?! and he was like i never said that and i was like but do you think that and he was like i dont know do you and i was like do i what? and he was like do you wanna do it and i was with you? and he was like ya and i was like i dont know do you? and he was like if you want [so basically we'll have sex if i want to?! idk] and he was like well just let me know and i was like but we're not even going out so we shouldn't even be talking about this and he was like why and i was like we'll if were not going out NOTHING is going to happen and he was like well what if we were and i was like then its a possibility (but thats only if were going out like a year and stuff WITH NO CHEATING and his longest relationship was about a month) and sooo i was like you never answered my question about being a virgin or not and he goes what do you think and im like im guessing your notttt and he goes idk not really......
then i fell asleep on him

AHHHHHHHHH I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BECAUSE I STILL LIKE HIM?!?!?!!
halp? once again.
sorry/:
btw im a virgin.
Don't be sorry! I'm here to help :D.

Asking him if he's a virgin is a good idea! Okay so basically..why didn't he answer the question directly? Because, if he is a virgin, most guy's feel "if im a virgin..she won't like me". Because for some reason, guy's feel girls want someone who is experienced and everything..which isn't always the case. So he probably wasn't sure how you'd feel if he IS one. Now if he isn't one, he's not sure how to answer either because he's thinking you may be mad that he's not one and think he's a bad person. However, judging from his answer..he's probably not a virgin and has been with some girls. Hopefully, not too many! Be careful with guy's who have had sex with a lot of girls..you never know what disease they could get from these girls, and then pass it on to you. When he said "im guessing you had sex with that one guy..." he was trying to change the subject. It's possible he felt uncomfortable? Or! He wanted to know if you were a virgin or not before he answered you. I don't like the fact that he said "you could've just asked me.." that's kind of saying "let's just have sex" because he never even mentioned that he wanted to be in a relationship with you in order to have sex. Which is someone you don't want! He's basically hinting that he wants to have sex with you throughout the whole entire conversation. If this does come up in another conversation, set him straight! Make sure he knows you're a virgin and you plan to stay that way until you're in a long-lasting relationship. Otherwise, he'll just think you're a "hook-up". And, since you like him, I'm sure that's not all you want. "i dont know not really.." is basically saying "I'm no virgin". So be careful with this guy..and try and find out his intentions with you.

You're a virgin: That's perfectly fine! That's actually the best thing to be. Virginity is considered basically like a precious gift! Which means, don't give it away to anyone who you don't LOVE! I'm a virgin myself, and I make it a point to tell my boyfriends that I'm not just going to be someone that they could just have sex with and leave. Which, of course, most guy's just want sex at young ages..so, it's hard to find a decent boyfriend haha. But believe me, there are some good ones out there. I was always told from a young age to only have sex when I'M ready and when I, again, LOVE the person. The first person you have sex with is going to be something you remember forever, so please don't waste it.

Overall: This guy is making it pretty known that he wants to have sex with you. I can't tell you what to do..but I strongly suggest sticking to what you believe and not having sex with him unless you guy's are in a long relationship. I understand you like this guy a lot! It doesn't mean you can't flirt with him or anything! But, he's obviously not looking for a long relationship, which is what you want. Don't settle for less than what you want! Even if that means losing someone you like a lot. As I said before, this doesn't mean you guy's can't be really good friends and possibly, when he's more mature in the future and ready for a long relationship, be together. Just TRY it! Don't expect to get over him in a matter of a day..believe me, it won't happen. Maybe try looking around for other guy's if you'd like?

Hope I helped :)
Good luck!

Q: i'm 18 years old and i'm a virgin. i've been seeing this guy for a while and we have done everything except sex. i have done everything except sex with other guys before too, but now i want to actually go further. the only thing is that i'm sure sure if he knows im a virgin or not and i think that is something he should know. i just don't know how to bring up that topic without it being awkward. do you have any ideas of how to bring it up to him? i don't want to just blurt it out ya know? thanks!
Honestly, just come right out and say it!
There's nothing wrong with being a virgin. Most guy's even prefer that. You can do what the person below me said to do..or one day when you feel the time is right, and you want to have sex. Just before you do, just flat out tell him you're a virgin. Nothing wrong with it at all :)

Hope I helped!

Q: I am bi sexual and my gf got mad last night because I was drunk and hugged an old guy friend. She got mad and was like how would u feel if I did that to you. But she goes to her exs all the time and I have went there before too because my gfs roomate used to live with her and there kids like the ex but my gf will come back and her ex has bough her cigs or something and is always wantin her to come over and drink usually my gf doesnt but its realy eatin me up and its causing a lot of tension between us what do I do? I dont wanna lose her
First of all, all you did was hug him? Not a big deal.
I can understand it bothers you that her ex always wants to hang out with her. But, it's possible he looks at him and her as being really good friends now. The problem here is all just jealousy.
Sit her down, and TALK! Communcation is the most important thing in a relationship.
Tell her how you feel about her ex. Make sure she knows it bothers you when he always wants to hang out with her. Make sure you explain everything you're feeling though, so she understands.
Then bring up what happend when you were drunk. And explain to her that you feel she always goes to her ex's all the time, and (if this is how you feel) the hugging wasn't a big deal and didn't mean anything. And just tell her you're sorry and you didn't mean to upset her.
I'm sure once you guy's talk, it'll all be fine :)

Good luck, hope I helped!

Q: i still don't know what to do:(
this is so hard.
and i know he equals a heartbreak but so would any other guy. but i forgot some of the stuff he had told me.
he had said that he wanted to go out with me but he wasn't ready and he didn't realiz how much he really liked me until after he fucked up. and he said he loved me a lot as a friend and wanted to someday love me a lot as a girl friend and ugh! i just don't know what to do. i'm stuck and clueless! like part of me wants to just forget about him and the other half of me wantes to give him a second chance. i'm sooo screwed and i'm really bad at following my heart/:
It's okay. These things are always hard!
He said he wasn't ready for a relationship with you at the moment. Which means, the friends option is the best for now. Don't push it, because, he'll hurt you again.
I'm sure he really does like you a lot! And it's good he told you that he realizes what he did was wrong and all. But, again..he's young. This will most likely happen again. I think the smartest thing to do would be to just stay friend and still keep your eyes open for any other nice guy's you may like. I'm not saying forget about this guy. I know it's really hard to do that. I would tell you to wait for him, because you obviously have a lot of feelings for him still. But, that's wrong. You shouldn't wait for anybody. That causes more heartbreak than anything!
So, I'm not going to tell you what to do. It's your choice.
If you'd rather just keep it as friends and move on, then do that! There's nothing wrong with being just friends.
Or, if you'd rather be friends now and wait for this guy to be ready and learn not to cheat, then do that if it's truly what you want. But, I must warn you..I've also been through this before. It's not easy at all. And it doesn't always mean the feelings will stay, that's why waiting for someone is so risky.

If I were you in this situation: I'd tell him that you both can remain friends for now. I would, if the option came up, date other people. And hey, if you're single one day..and he is too (and he's changed) then why not go for it?!

Just please, if you really want to be with him, wait until you are 100% sure he will remain faithful to you!

Here's a few links that may help you out. It's basically all about "Should I take him back?":

Q: hi!
the answer you left me was good(:
well two nights ago guess what happened?
he called me.
yep! he said his phone has been jacked up and he never blocked my number ( i think i believe him )
and oh geez he apologized sooo many times! it was unbelievable. and i was like i don't know what to say and he was like you don't have to say anything i'm sorry(x1000) and he was like i should be buying you presents and taking you places. (wtf??) ha so he said he was crying over that. and he wanted to know if we could at least be friend and he said if not he would ball. and theres this other girl he's been in love with forever and he said he would rather lose her than me. and he said i was the nicest, sweetest girl he has ever met. i don't know what to do! i mean i think i still like him/: unfortunatly and im thinking its either gonna have to be:

okay, we can be friends but if you think were ever gonna be more than that, your wrong.
OR
okay, we can be friends but if you think were ever gonna be more than that your gonna have to work suuuuper hard.

eh this is so hard!!!!!

help?

Hi again! haha. Thankyou :).

Okay well! The whole phone thing..I would believe him too..because it is 100% possible his phone could just suck! I've been in the same situations with people and that's usually the case.

It's good he finally called you and apologized. You deserve that. Guy's, especially when they do stuff wrong and get caught, apologize like there's no tommorow because they feel guilty! I'm not saying he doesn't feel bad at all, because I'm sure he does. But, he's cheatied on another girl in the past..so this may be something he's used to. Due to everything that you've said about this guy..there's just still things about him I'd be careful about:
1)He obviously can't be faithful.
2)You can't trust him.
And 3) Being with him = Heartbreak.

I know it sucks, believe me..I've been in these situations all the time! He'll definitely mature and possibly change eventually..but, right now in his life, he is too intersted in seeing what's out there to just be with ONE girl. It's sad how these boy's act..

It is very nice he said you're the nicest and sweetest girl he had ever met. And I'm sure he does think you're both of those things!..but, I must warn you..it is very possible he just said it out of guilt. Guy's will do anything to get rid of their guilt. It's extremely understandable that you still like this guy. These type of things just don't go away. As I said in my last answer, the relationship ended so fast..you didn't get answers, you weren't told why he did it, you basically weren't told anything! In relationships, sometimes you need the "closure" after a break up. For example, I had a boyfriend for a few months, we ended up having a HUGE fight..and ended on bad terms. It turns out he cheated on me and lied about a lot..I never even knew. He basically ignored me after the break up. I never got answers..so basically I never got my closure. Which leads to me, every so often, wondering what went wrong and to me thinking about him.
Why is closure important to some people? It "set's you free" so to speak. It basically let's you know what went wrong so the relationship and the guy don't linger in your head. Not everyone needs this though. How can you get this? It's up to you. I'm not telling you to, because, it's all your choice! I just figure this may help you feel better about it all. You can get closure by just simply asking him why he did it. I can't guarantee he'll give you an honest answer or even answer you..but it may help. Just an idea :).

Overall, I strongly suggest you pick the "Okay, we can be friends.. but if you think we're ever going to be more than that, you're wrong". Why? Because being with him will cause more heartbreak which I don't think you want. This guy obviously needs to, for some reason, be with more than one girl. He'll change eventually hopefully, but not anytime soon. I know it's going to be hard, but some things in life are hard to do. So, just be friends! You need to find a much nicer, faithful, guy. Believe me, there are some out there. Don't waste your time. But again..it's all up to you!

Good Luck.

Q: so i'm new at this school and im beginning to like this guy. i see him every day in one of my classes. the thing is im kind of confused about him and i never really got the chance to talk to him. i started to notice him the first time we had class together and i think he realised that because at the end of class he kind of checked me out before he left. he sits infront of me and yesterday he turned around about 3 or 4 times during class to look at me, i always blushed and looked away and so did he when he saw me looking.
but then when class ends i always try to get closer to him to talk to him but he always walks by me ignoring me not even seeing me. same thing today, during class he turned around twice but ignored me outside class. and later on when school finished he was at the front door, about to leave but he turned around again to look at me and then left. i thought it was really cute so i smiled at him but he didnt smile back cause he didnt see it fast enough. and i know hes really shy and quiet and it seems to me like he didnt have lots of experience with girls. he's a little emo-ish but still talks to all the other groups so i dont think i have to be emo to be liked by him. i do think that he noticed me because i know im pretty etc but i dont know what to do. then again ive only been at this school for one week haha. any tips? (:
I'll give you a few tips to help you out with this guy :).

Tips on how to get him to notice you more:
-Smile and make eye contact!(You site behind him..so this will probably be easy. Just make eye contact and smile at him when he turns.)
-Establish communication (Say hi to him! Don't be shy. You even said yourself that you think he's a little shy. So, be the first one to just start the conversation)
-Become friends with him. (It will get you noticed and this often can lead to a serious relationship)
-And finally! Get to know him better. (When you do start talking to him, eventually, start finding out things about him! Ask him questions based on what you already know about him. However, I'm sure that's not much. So..just ask him the simple things first. Guy's don't like being asked TOO many questions. But, I'm sure they don't mind some. For example, ask him what his hobbies are, or his favorite things to do, what kind of music he likes,etc. Maybe even try doing some of the stuff he likes with him! Make sure you also add in some of your experiences that relates to what he's saying. What I mean is..if he say's he likes to swim or something..if you like doing similar things, tell him! This will make for good conversation and for you both to get to know eachother.)

Yes, it is true..the first thing a guy notices is how you look. However, you said you're pretty and new to the school, so it's possible that's why he's looking at you. But, of course, I don't know him so I wouldn't know how he is with girls. The only way you can truly find out if he likes you is to get to know him. I'm sure once you do all this, you'll figure it out. It does seem like he does have an interest though, especially because he turns often to look at you. I'm sure it'll all go great!

Here's a link to a site that may help you figure out if he likes you:

Q: i like this boy his name is pj and i want to go out with him but i don't really know him and i want to get to know him, so how can i do that? And how do i know he likes me
Hi :).

Boys often give mixed signals so it can tend to be kind of hard to know if they REALLY do like you. However, I'll give you some ways you can tell if he does have an interest in you.

How can you tell if a boy likes you?:
-He will look at you and when you catch him, he'll look away.
-He'll text/call you on his own if you did it first.
-Make up excuses to talk to you.
-Find ways to be around you.
-He may even pretend to like someone else.
-Become your friend.
-Be playful with you.
-Try to make you laugh often and/or feel better.

Q: 15/girl.

so i liked this guy for nine months and two weeks ago he finally asked me out. i was soo happy even though i knew he was a player and "soo many girls like him, he could have any girl he wanted". and he had told me he had cheated on a girl before but he said he wouldn't do it again and i believed him. and so we were going out for one week and we didn't talk everyday more like every other. and we don't go to the same school. but like one night i was talking to my friend and she was like yaa but he has a gf, and i was like yaa i'm going out with him, and she goes um he's going out with my friend, and i was like um since when and she goes since last night. so she texted him and was like your going out with both of them and he broke up with me when he found i knew. so i called him and was like you cheated on me? and he was like what? nooo. he so denied it. and my friend that told me, they were talking and he was saying how he didnt mean to cheat on me cause he wouldnt wanna hurt me like that and feels really bad and feels like crap. but he should be telling me this and he never wanted to cheat againand then i think he blocked my number or something? cuz like when i call from my cell it rings once and then goes to voicemail? why do you think that is? cuz when i call from a different phone it rings all the way. and idont know if he gets my texts but like just last night my friend was texting him and she mentioned me and he didn't reply or say anything. sooo i really don't know what to do at all???? like i really REALLY need to talk to him. and i don't know what to do because of his phone and stuff?
h e l p:(
As they say...once a cheater, always a cheater. I'm soo sorry he did this to you though :(. Honestly, he's never going to change. I understand you want to talk to him because the relationship ended so fast..but, I doubt he'll talk to you. He's (in all honesty) being a jerk. He won't answer your calls or texts. I would say, if possible, try and talk to him in person. That's the best way to do it.

Is he blocking your number?: Most likely, he did.

Here's links to a few sites that may help you see if he did actually block you or not!:

After reading a few of these myself..I'm pretty sure he may have blocked you. However, I don't know for sure. It's possible his cell phone service sucks. You never know. If it's at all possible..try and get your friend to ask him why he's ignoring you. Hopefully he'll tell her.

The cheating thing: He's lying to you. He knows what he did. The first step when a guy gets caught is to DENY! Every guy denies something they did. I don't know why, but they do. Ever hear that song "It wasn't me" by Shaggy?..that's exactly how they are. haha. Not very smart. I'm guessing he's close to your age? Basically, guy's (especially younger ones) like to "play the field". It's possible he just wants a "good time" sort of thing. It's rude..but, that's how some of them are.

You're 15 though, I didn't even have a boyfriend when I was 15. I waited until I turned 16. You're not going to find a perfect guy in High School. If you do, congratulations! haha. All you can do is just look around, get to know a guy, and make sure he remains faithful to you! Don't date those player guy's..they are NEVER faithful!

Good luck, hope I helped :)

Q: Okay. Well there was this guy that I met through a friend right? And so he and I had been texting for like a few months, and talking on the phone occasionally, but had only talked about seriously going on a date like twice. Well one day, I ran into him totally unexpectedly on a quick run to mcdonalds which really sucked cuz I was in like a t-shirt and a pair of soffee shorts, which where I live are referred to as "slut shorts" haha, I don't know. Plus I had like just woken up so I looked as ugly as crap... But anyway so it was SOOO awkward and since then I haven't texted him because it was so awkward that I just don't have the nerve to, and he hasn't texted me for reasons that probably have to do with my disgusting appearence when he saw me, haha (that was like a week ago). Now I don't know what to do. Becuase even before the meeting I kind of had the impression that he was just going to use me for some action becasue he even asked if I would ever have sex with him, and I said no, but he told me he was totally okay with that. Well now its just even worse, I don't know what to do. Should I call him up and try to get things started agian of just forget about it?... I don't know.
Honestly, it shouldn't matter how you appeared that day haha. It's not like you were going to a fashion show..he needs to get over it (if it bothered him!).

Usually, guy's don't care if they see a girl without make-up. I'm sure you didn't look horrible. Guy's even say they prefer girls who don't wear a lot of make up on their faces.

He asked if you would have sex with him? Yeah..it's easy to tell he wants to have a "good time", especially at the age of 16! I'm 16 myself, and the guy's in my school..they are always looking for an easy way to get sex, and they're very immature. It's great you told him no though!

I'm not saying ALL he wanted to do was have sex with you. Because, I don't know him and he probably does like you.

It's possible he hasn't texted you and/or called you because he's busy, doesn't feel like it, too lazy, not sure what to say, etc. It's even possible he wants you to make the first move! Who knows. So many excuses guy's come up with!

Should you talk first? Well #1: he SHOULD talk to you, even if you didn't text first. It shouldn't matter. It's very rude of him to not even say anything to you. Now, I'm not sure if you usually text/call first but if you do..then don't text him or anything. Wait for him. However, you can send a text saying "are you alive" (sarcastic). I did that to my guy friend who randomly stopped talking to me. It worked haha.
Now, if you sometimes text him first and he sometimes texts you first (which makes it like an equal thing..) then either you can text first and just be like "Hey, how are you?" or you'll have to wait for him..
If he ignores you, forget about him!

So basically, it's up to you. Depending on who usually texts first..that's how you can make your decision.

Or you can just make it easy and text him a simple "hello" haha.

Good luck, hope I helped :)

Q: ok its a boy that i liked for a long time and his nephew said he liked me but when i asked him he said no then i said o then yesterday he txted me hey friend and hey do i have a boy friend and i said no then he txted me is im gone to a boyfriend then i said maybe or maybe not then he said o then he had to go then i said hold on let ask him a question and he said wat then i said do he hav a girl friend and then he said no and he dont want 1 rite and then i said me too then we said bye now do that mean he like or something PLEASE GIVE ME ADVICE!!!!
At first, it seems that he may be a bit interested because he asked you if you had a boyfriend. However, when you asked..and he said no and that he isn't looking for one..that just shows you that he's not interested in a realtionship. That doesn't mean he's not interested in you though!

It's quite confusing especially since his nephew said he liked you. But, you can never listen to anyone but the guy himself.

I wouldn't get involved with this guy just yet...maybe wait until he's READY for a relationship. Why? Because he obviously has no intentions to have a girlfriend at the moment..if he does continue to show an interest..it may be only for sex. Now, I'm not saying that's all he wants because I don't know the guy! But, from experience, that's usually what guy's want if they show an interst in you..but don't want a relationship.

Be careful of those type of guy's. They usually end up breaking your heart.

If you are up to it, you can just straight out ask him if he likes you. That's the simplest way this all can be solved. It's wonderful if he does like you..but I wouldn't get my hopes up. You can go up to him and say "Can I ask you something?" He'll answer...and you can say "Your nephew told me you liked me..is it true?" Or something like that! Just a suggestion.

With guys, the best thing to do is just to be honest and tell them how you feel!

Good luck, hope I helped :)

Q: Hiya..


Well a about a month ago my ex and i broke up. It didn't last long. He found someone else, and i cant find anyone. Well there's this one guy named Chris he likes me but he has a gf and he likes her more than me.He told me if he wasn't dating her he would of asked me out. He's in a long distance relationship and he says it sucks. He calls me practically everyday i don't know what to do. I told him that i would wait for him but i don't think i can. HOW CAN I FIND THE RIGHT GUY!lol im 14 and next week i start back into school. There also is another guy who likes me, he tells my friends and tells them to keep quite about it. He's dating this girl to get his mind off of me. i have no clue what to do anymore and im so tired of it. PLZ help me!
First of all, don't ever tell anyone you will wait for them! Especially when they are in a relationship! You already said you know that he likes her more than you, so why would you wait for him when you could be with somebody? Talk to this guy and tell him that you're going to, of course, date other people. But, if he's single and your single..then it may happen.

The other guy who doesn't want your friends telling you: it's pretty obvious he likes you! However, dating someone to get his mind off of you? Um, yeah, not a good idea haha. I've been in your situation a lot. It's possible he's just too nervous and shy to ask you out! So, try talking to him and, if you have feelings for him, tell him you do. Guy's can't mind read! It makes it so simple just to straight out tell him how you feel. And, hopefully, he'll realize he doesn't have strong feelings for his girlfriend like he does for you (if that's true).

YOU'RE 14! You're not going to find "mr.right". When you're young, you need to date a few guys so you can figure out who your mr.right really is! It's hard to find a really good guy in high school. All they really want at a young age is sex. So, the best advice I could give you is to make sure you get to know these guys and/or any guys you ever want to date before you do anything with them. I see too many younger girls hurt because their boyfriend cheat on them.

Good qualities you can look for in a guy?:
-Great sense of humor.
-Faithful/Loyal (very important!)
-Respects you.
-Good communication skills! (also, very important!)
-Affectionate/Caring.
-Appreciative and Forgiving.
-Confident.
And finally!
-Loves YOU for YOU!

Good luck, hope I helped :)
