jcpennypanties answered Thursday March 10 2005, 4:50 pm: Well I dont think breaking up with him is really the right thing to do, but if you dont like him anymore it is the right thing to do. But I think the problem is you dont want to be his girlfriend because hes boring and is way to shy around you and is fun around his friends. But if you knew how he felt,its prolly like his first real girlfriend and he doesnt know how to act around her..like wether to hold your hand, give you a goodbye kiss, stuff like that. Girls mature a lot quicker give the boy some time, he'll come around if hes interested in you, maybe you should try and break his shyness.

Try talking to him before you definetly decide to break up, tell him exactly how you feel and what you think is going on. Ask him to explain why he's been acting the way he has. Then once he responds, try working through the problems because if you don't try fixing it first, your taking the easy way out and that is how most divorces are decided. Soz know itz deep but hey you gotta start somewhere :-)
Then if he still is buggin you, get him on his own and tell him that as much as you like him, you think that you work better as friends than as boyfriend and girlfriend. Hopefully he'll take it well. Then you need to give him some space to move on. After 2 weeks or so, try talking to him and invite him to go to the cinema with you and some of both of your mates. In time you'll talk more and get used to being just friends.

Firefly answered Wednesday March 9 2005, 8:50 pm: Can you believe that I've had that exact same problem?
What I did was I explained to the guy that I wasn't quite sure I knew him very well because he was so shy around me (this might not work if you have known him for a while), so I wasn't quite sure if I could date him comfortable. I said that we should probably start out as friends, and if our relationship builds from there and we start dating again, then there we go, no harm, and if we simply stay friends, then again, there's no harm.
If you really like him, though, you should talk to him outright on his shyness. Don't give up because things aren't going your way. [ Firefly's advice column | Ask Firefly A Question ]

toxxxic11ana answered Wednesday March 9 2005, 7:17 pm: Go like: " Ok I really like you but i think you are just to shy to talk to me!
I hope we can still be friends.
But if you also like me alot and still want us to go back out... i think you should start acting like you act around your frinds... like i'm your best friends!!!!
Lizzy answered Wednesday March 9 2005, 7:11 pm: be honest with him...but not blunt. Tell him that you are only fourteen and you would really like to experience what it's like with other guys. I have the same problem breaking up with guys, but let him know you still want to be friends, like ask him to go with you to movies with a group of friends or whatever

lilrocksta13 answered Wednesday March 9 2005, 6:41 pm: An easy to let him go is for you to say : "I think its better that we just be friends because it seems like we never talk". But you also need to consider the fact that he just doesn't have the right words to say. What you two should do is set aside some time and discuss what you think is happening between you. Who knows, you two may feel the same way. [ lilrocksta13's advice column | Ask lilrocksta13 A Question ]
lovebug26 answered Wednesday March 9 2005, 6:39 pm: You should talk to him about what is going on nd why he doesn't act so goofy around you. Tell him that if it continues you don't want to date anymore. If he doesn't change anything than get rid of him. You need someone whos going to compliment you as a person, and not ignore you and not talk to you. See what he says if you tell him you want things to change or else...maybe we could be just friends.... [ lovebug26's advice column | Ask lovebug26 A Question ]
