about

Hi I am the teen helper. I stumbled on this website while on google it really caught my eye so I read on and though this is just what I really need ( but not exactly what I was looking for on google). I have been told I'm really good at giving advice to my friends and I always wanted to make a difference. I am mostly focusing on teens because not only are teens going though a lot of crazy stuff at the time and just really need someone to ask or talk about problems but I am a teen myself.

advice

I'm 13/F and well, there's this guy I really like and he likes me back (13/M). He asked me out 4 times already and I said no to all of them. I mean, he didn't sound desperate, in fact he wasn't desperate at all. When he aked me out the 4th time I told him the real reason rather than saying, "because I'm done dating." I told him I couldn't because I didn't want to get in trouble with my family. The catch is, is that he understands, but says "I love you, I miss you," all those gushy things. I say it back to him of course, but it feels weird saying it back because of what my family would think, like they'd think I'm breaking the promise. I don't know how to say it to my mom without me probably getting in trouble. Will I get in trouble? Can anbody help me? please?

I have been in the same situation as you. Your parents probably don't want you dating till your a highschooler or 16 because there is no real way to see each other a lot and to them it's not real an they are just don't want you to be upset over a boy at 13.

Now, I can tell this guy you like is a good guys since you asked 4 times and understands why you can't go out right now. That is a good thing and it may help if you tell your mom.

If you want to tell your mom you need to get her alone somewhere to talk. Try to get her in a good mood and it may help even more if you can do it right after you made her really proud. Then you need to explain to her the situation. Tell how much it would mean to you if she did let you date him. Explain to how understanding and respectful he has been that may give you a boost if she's iffy about this.

Good luck
