I was thinking about dumping my boyfriend, but I don't know if I want to now. One of my "friends" found out and told him and one of his best friends! He thinks I'm mad at him and stuff, but I'm not! I keep telling him that I'm not! BUt he still says I'm sorry! Some of my other friends were telling him that I was made at him because he didn't kiss me or anything at the movies over the weekend, and I don't really care. His best friend sent me a message that said that he was shy and he was sorry he didn't hold my hand or anything at the movies so he was gonna ask me to go to the movies this weekend to make it up to me. Now I don't know what to do, because if I do break up with him he's gonna think it is because of that. And I don't want him to think that, because it's not! And I don't know what to do! Someone please help me!!!
Sherry answered Monday March 28 2005, 5:17 pm: Why do you even want to dump him? Stay with him..your not mad at him and he didnt do anything. So stay with your boyfriend, and dont tell your friends about your relationship life. Its personal, something only between you and him. And he should have kept his best friend out of it. But anyway, go to the movies with him and talk to him about it...everything will be okay! Dont worry:) And your boyfriend is just scared your gonna break up with him and hes trying to save your relationship. Even though theres nothing to save, but he doesnt know that.

rainbowsend answered Monday March 28 2005, 5:09 pm: Why are you thinking about dumping him? You need to ask yourself that. Once you have a clear answer... then you need to talk to him. Explain that you're not mad at him, he hasn't done anything wrong, etc. but that [insert reason for ending relationship]. Talk to him in private and in person, if possible.
Take note that shy guys are often the ones who are the most noticably sensitive, so be gentle in whatever you do.
And perhaps it's time to change how much you tell your "friends". Gossip can cause a lot of problems and drama that you don't need. In the future, keep sensitive information to yourself, only telling those who really need to know, or those you really know you can trust to keep it to themselves.
