my name's elizabeth gemma, and i'm 16 years old. i'm in grade 11, in dublin, ireland. my absolute favourite sport is football, i'd play it all day every day if i could. i have a boyfriend, his name is phillip. he means the world to me. i want to be a psychologist someday, and i love giving advice on love, school, and family. i have a big family, 5 brothers and 3 sisters, and i love them to bits. i have a twin brother named louis, he completes me. any questions? ask away!

advice

Is it worth it? Will we turn out the same if I make the first move?

How am I supposed to approach him about taking this relationship further. We're best friends and we're like a couple, such as cuddling, holding hands, and talking about our personal lives, but excluding the title of boyfriend/girlfriend or any kissing/making out. I'm 50% sure he likes me and 50% he knows that I like him. But how do I tell him that I'm ready to START being able to kiss him, and call him my boyfriend.

We're both 18 by the way, freshman in college, and on Winter Break, and won't see each other for another 2 weeks.

i think you should be upfront with him about it. let him know exactly how you feel, and ask how he feels. sometimes, guys can just be really dense. he might not be completely aware of how you're feeling about him. so tell him, and ask him what he sees for you two in the future. if he's cuddling and holding your hand, chances are quite great that he has feelings for you. so go for it!

i am from india and am a muslim.... i have been in a relationship for a year now with a guy who is a muslim too and hard core one... i love the guy deeply and i have changed a lot for him... but he has a lot of expectations from me and wants me to change completely and adopt a new life all together... he has changed and so has his attitude towards me....he gets angry and doesn't behave in the same way as he used to... he is not like the guys i loved.... even though i really love him but i cant compromise on being myself... i cant leave him because i cant live without him.... m too used to him... n even if i do i know he will hurt himself.. he is very suicidal and can do anything.... i feel like m in such pool of mess and so confused... what should i do?

first of all, you're right in saying that you can't compromise on being yourself. you're you, and no one, NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE, should try to change that. if he has changed this much since you two started dating, it's not a good sign. he seems very controlling. i think you should just slowly ease your way out of the relationship. i promise, it's for the best. stay strong, don't let him guilt you into staying with him.
