I've been dating my boyfriend for TWO MONTHS and he has called me his exgirlfriends name a few times now (on the phone AND in person face-to-face). At first I thought he just make a mistake and I let it go but now it's making me really, really mad. I keep wondering if he's doing it on purpose or if I should be worried at all about this. I know two months is no real amount of time in the scheme of things but HELLO! I don't even look like his ex!
I am too embarrassed to ask my mom or my friends about it though. Should I ask my boyfriend why he keeps calling me by his ex girlfriend's name? Should I just let it slide, ask him to apologize when he does it, or what? There's been a few times where he didn't even seem to notice(!) that he called me the WRONG NAME - should I bring it to his attention when he does it?
Or maybe I should just dump him?
I mean, if he can't remember my name...does he really care?
Ugh! What do you think? (link)

I have to admit it would irritate me if my boyfriend kept calling me his ex-girlfriend's name. It is only natural. Two months is only a short time so you need to think about some things. How long had your boyfriend and his ex been split up when you got together? If they were only broken up for a short time before you started dating him then it could be that she is still on his subconsious mind.
HOWEVER,if this is not the case and there was a pretty good length of time from her to you (like 6 months or more), then it is possible that he still has feeling for her. Feelings have a way of not disappearing as fast as we would like. If he is doing this on purpose then he is jerk and no matter which way it goes, you need to talk to him. If it is bothering you then there is nothing wrong with asking why he consisently calls you his ex-girlfriend's name.
You don't have to be MEAN and nasty when you ask. Chances are if you are mean and nasty when confronting him he will not give you the answer you want. It may even start an even bigger fight. Certainly though you have the right to speak up. You are not his ex and shouldn't be addressed as such. Hope it all works out.

My boyfriend and I REALLY want to have sex in the shower for our first time. He said his friend told him that if we use some sort of soap (like bar soap or even SHAMPOO) that we won't have to worry about me getting pregnant. That way we won't have to buy condoms or anything too. Sounds great, yeah? :D
My parents are going to be away this saturday for a little while and I thought about asking my boyfriend to come over and we could do it in the shower. ;) I'm kind of nervous about the soap thing though because I don't want to end up being a pregnant teen.
:) Is it true that you can't get pregnant if you use soap as lubrication during sex in the shower?
And, if so, what is the best soap/shampoo to use for lube in the shower? ;) ;) THANKS (link)

If you are not on any type of birth control (i.e. condoms, pills,nuva rings, etc), then OF COURSE you can get pregnant in the shower while using lubrication or any other time. Actually, the only way to be sure that you will not become pregnant is to not have sex and I'm not saying that because I know it's not the reality of today. Though it does sound like you probably shouldn't be haven't sex until you educate yourself a bit more on sex and sexual health. If you feel comfortable talk to your parents. If not, is there a sexual education/health teacher you can talk to at school? Go to the library, there are plenty of books on the subject. Whatever it is that you decide, please do something. I wish you luck. Take care.
