Q: Male/17
Hey, I’m usually the one giving advice. I don’t need advice. I just have a question and I want to know your opinion. This question is for deep thinkers. Long answers are encouraged as well as comical ones.

I’ve seen quite a lot of “love” questions, asked by adolescences. What would you call "true love"? Many people have been saying “I have a boyfriend and I REALY love him” and “she said that he loves me” or things like that. I’ve seen these questions being asked by 13 year olds! Teens DO have deep affections for people, but I really don’t think that they are capable of TRUE love. How can there be love if teen relationships only last 2 months or even 2 years! 2 years is quite long for a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, but shouldn’t love last a LIFETIME? I agree that teens think that they are in love (I’ve been there) but I wouldn’t call that love. I would call it more like, “deep affection”. After all, if love between teens is really “love” then they shouldn’t break up, right? I think that teens are too young and “unexposed” to have TRUE LOVE. Even adults. They mistakenly call their relationships “love”. If it was actually love, then shouldn’t there be less or no divorces?
The reason there are divorces is because 1, people think a divorce will solve all their probelms, and 2, they are way too easy to get and not looked down upon as much anymore.

I think true love can exist between 2 teenagers. But the thing is, I think it can only exist between 2 mature, responsible teenagers. I can homestly say that I am one of those teenagers, and I have the same boyfriend for 2 years.
There was only one time when we broke up and that was because we were both scared since being in love at such a young age, and din't understand where the relatinship was going. We took time apart, and reevaluated our lives, but the feelings didn't fade. The love still stood there and our relationship feels just like it was when we first starting going out. We rarely fight because we know eachother so well that we understand why one of us is reacting to eachother or what we've said in such a bad way.

I just wanted to give some insight into the question from a teenager's point of view.

I do agree with you though, 13 is pushing it. When your 13 its called "puppy love." Its where you really really like someone and you probably spend too much time together for your age. I also don't understand why girls in middle school now are walking around pregnant. I used to think that was only a high school thing.

Q: how do i scrunch my hair?
put gel in ur hair when its wet (or mouse) and hold your hair from the botton and bring your hang up like your hair is a slinky and scrunch(squeeze) it. do it all over until its curly

Q: ok, me and my boyfriend have been going out for a little over 3 months, but we havent made out yet. we hold hands and kiss, but not open mouth. we've said that we love each other, and idk. is there a problem with this? i mean we talked about it and said we're ready, but like we just cant find the right time cuz of school and stuff.
aww thats a cute reliationship really! Don't worry you'll kiss when its time and you will know when to! The faster you rush into a relationship the faster it ends. I'm glad to hear your taking it slowly. Enjoy it and do worry so much. If you want to make-out tho I'd recommend kissing him on the neck when you two are alone..that says alot.

Q: If a guy liked you, and you liked him alot, and he is gonna ask u out, thenyou hang out with him at a bandfest with friends one nite and hes ALL over you but at the end of the night he doesnt even talk to you anymore or n e thing, not even a good bye or anything, would you think he doesnt like you anymore?? would you give up on him?? or keep trying cuz you like him ALOT!!
obviously he likes you, he just might act different around u when yall are around certain ppl..does he like you when u 2 are alone?

Q: I kno Im to yung, but I had sex wit my bf like 3 months aftr we went out and I didnt wanna do it but he prssurd me into it, so we did it. Now I unno wat to do but I like him a lot and I dun wanna break up wit him but he keeps makin me do it! Wat shud i do?
break up with him if he won't stop because he needs to know that ur not comfortable in this and are feeling trapped. if he loves you he will if he doesn't drop him. there are so many other great guys out there and u have so many years to find them.
hope i helped and gl

Q: my bf never talks 2 me at skool...i am his 1st gf ever...and he gets REALLY nervous around me!..wut do i do???...i like him a lot ...but he need s 2 talk 2 me 2!
Just hang on his arms a little and just be cheery around him, ask him lots of questions and tell him about your day and what your plans are.

Q: I have been going out with my boyfriend for a long time now. I love him so much and he asked me to marry him. I told him yes of course because I have never felt this way about anyone and he is flawless. But the thing is, I am only 16 years old. And latley, aka as of two days ago, I have been having doubts and it doesnt feel the same. Nothing happened between us, it just feels different. I want to love this guy again, because the love I had for him was perfect. I dont want to lose him for feeling this. What can I do to 'rekindle' the flame again?
Just try doing things that you don't usually do, or that you used to do when you first started going out. Try not to do the same old things, because then you take the old things or possible different things for granted. Try hanging out at a different place or just doing different things together.

Q: my boyfriend has REALLY bad breath. hes such a clean guy but he like breathes with his mouth open and its digusting. even when he chews gum i still smell it. and when were cuddling i just about die. and when he wants to kiss me it smells like dog poo and makes me smell..i cant tell him that will be totally mean...what can i do?
Just keep strong mints with you in his purse and keep feeding them to him. Let him know how you feel so that he can do something about it for you. Don't go unhappy like that it could turn you off from him.

Q: What should i do becuase i don't have a boyfriend and all my friends do?
find some temporary friends or ppl to hang out with until they come back

Q: My boyfriend acts like he doesnt care when i talk to guys, but one of my guy friends gave me a ride to My bestfriends house for wings. and i told him it was my mom driving me because iknew he'd be super mad and break up with me and he found out and he did and i told him why but he didnt care we got back together two days later and weve been togeter for over 13 months, and he sits next to girls in all of his classes ex. one and alomst 3 classes are next to a girl i dont like very much and he refuses to move when i know he could. I dont get how he can flip out when i talk to a guy that he claims to have tried to break us up when the girl he actually has classes with and talks to tried the same just diffent ways i guess and he even made me stop talkin to him because of it. I wouldnt make him stop talkin to girls if hes friends with them but i feel like they are above me, how do i get him to relize what he has, cuz i wont be around forever, he doesnt think ill leave him but i have dumped him 1 time before and he got so mad, so i dont know what to do to make him show affection twards me and accept that i care if he leaves..ill rate high
wow you sound like your ranting
breath
its high school drama
talk it out if you love eachother, just sit down and talk it out over a meal or ice cream or seomthing along you'll figure it out
hope i helped

Q: ok what exactly are guys looking for? i go to a private school and theres like 100 people in my grade... its pretty even (guys vs girls) and ive never been asked out. people always tell me im pretty and funny and i dont get it. im thinking that its just that the guys at private schools are retarded because a lot of really pretty popular girls dont get asked out.. but yea... so what are guys looking for? i rate 5s
all private school guys suck! take it from me iwent to private school for 7years, once i got out to public it was soo much better. find a guy outside of your school, most in private schools are immature, thats why theyre there to begin with
btw im a gurl, sry if this doesn't help

hope i helped please rate!

Q: Me and my fiance have been together for going on 3 and half years, that was until Wednesday. We have now split, because I ask him to show me that he loves me more often, because I ask this he blames me for "cussing" at him to much. I know that it is hard for him sometimes to show me this but it is something that I feel that I need, even though I am pretty sure that he does love me. i have never cheated on him or anything to hurt him, he means more than life to me, and will give it all that I have to make sure that he is happy. This is not the first time that we have seperated, and after a few days and does eventually return but this time, my heart is not so sure. Can you tell me from a guys ppoint of view what you think will happen to my bf and I. Will you also give me advice on what to do to make sure that this never happens again??
WELLLL i'm not a guy, but i can tell you this. you've been together for a long time (as you say 3 years) so obviously theres still always a chance of staying together b/c feelings won't die that fast unless he's been cheating on you for years, but obviously he has not. there is no guarantee things like that won't happen again but what you can do is make a promise between eachother and hold to it, never to deliberately say things to eachother that you know would hurt one another (obv, you know what hurts him). just tell him that you love him and ask him back see if he gets the picture. chances are he does but still has trouble expressing it (remember guys are less mature than girls) so just let him kno you mind (nicely) and just try to be there for eachother

Q: ok i have this boyfriend and his soo awesome! we have been daten for 2weeks and we had sex last night! i've been "talking" with him since feb. but sometimes i feel like he doesn't care about me that much! and his always kind of mad at me..but i know his not cuz he got kicked outta his house 2weeks ago and he has to find a place to stay like everynight so it's not like i can talk to him...but he is pretty good about calling me and letten me know where he is staying at...that is if theres a phone around! but for some reason i'm so worried about him..i'm always woundering where is at and what his doing and who his with...he graduated last yr and i'm only in 10th...so when i'm at school that is when i worry...he has the friend that i don't like to much but yet his cool i don't like my boyfriend hanging out with him because i don't trust my boyfriend with him my boyfriend knows that i don't i like him with him...because i feel like his going to cheat on me when he is with his friend! i just don't know what to do about out relationship...cuz i do like him alot ((like not love)) and he gave me a promise braclett promiseing that he would never hurt me!!
i'll rate!
i'll keep this quick. if its not love, then its nothing to worry about. you don't need to be in a relationship like that either where you just sit around and worry about eachother. you should be comfortable and able to trust him. find another man you can depend on.

Q: ok with every guy ive dating they have been touchy and lovey and stuff but this one guy now is just so shy and wont open up how do i get him to and be touchy and huggy and affectionate?
tell him your thoughts, if that doesn't work, try to be a little towards him the way u want him to be around u..
if u want him to puts his arms around u, place his arms around u..just stuff like that. good luck and hope i helped

Q: Well in my view a love encompasses a never ending friendship that over powers all your other friendships. The one you love should be really the only one you truly need in the end other then God. From what I've seen of other people of the elder generation and my parents I like to think on this line. Do you concur or do you differ with this idea?
i think your right.
i believe in only one true love, and that love will conquer anything.

but i dont know what u mean by over powering all other friendships (what is that supposed to mean?)

Q: i made out with my bf the other day and he has been telling everyone about it ever since, but i only hear that from my friends. he has talked about it to my friends and stuff like that. i dont really like it, should i talk to him about it? i'm not sure what to do, i mean it is true... its not like a false rumour he is passing around or anything. i like him, he's sweet, but i feel like i cant make out with him anymore or else he's guna tell every one about it... also, for the boys out there, why do you think he talked about it so much? thanks
he either enjoyed it alot or (it was his first time) lol!!
prob true
please rate thanks
