Question Posted Thursday December 30 2004, 4:30 am
My boyfriend lives with me, and he's always here (I'm 14/f), that's not the problem though. I just feel like he never really pays attention to me. He's playing video games, or he's on the computer, and I do so much for him, all I want is attention. How do I talk to him, or make him want me more, not even in a sexual way, but I just want attention. How do I tell him this without him thinking I want sex and without him being mad and have it actually work? sorry it's confusing, but I really need advice. I'll rate.

But before you talk to him jsut when hes playing a video game or on the computer just site by him maybe play the game with him or just go by him and hug him and kiss him! Then if that diesn't work pull him over on the couch or somthing and be like "we haven't did anything together for awhile wanna go out for dinner or something?" or something like this "whats going on?"i hope it all works out and i hope i helped!!xoxo NiCoLe~ [ CoKeIzZle's advice column | Ask CoKeIzZle A Question ]

Sometime when hes playing video games go beside him and give him a hug and some kisses..who can turn down that? If he turns it down for some reason, then i would definately tell him whats been on your mind. Telling him isnt such a bad plan anyway. One day drag him out of the house or go see a movie...get him out more often. Then you`ll naturally start talking and having fun
good luck with everything

Scribble answered Thursday December 30 2004, 8:10 am: OK plan A is that you mention this to him, sit him down and admit you sometimes feel left out, but make it clear that its not sexual and you aren't trying to control him.
Plan B (and this is the one I'd do) is start doing things with him- find common interests and exploit them. If he wants to sit and play video games let him for a while but them drag him out ice skating or something. Eventually you'll hit on things you both love doing, so you're both having fun and spending time paying attention to each other. [ Scribble's advice column | Ask Scribble A Question ]
