o0xbrianna answered Tuesday April 19 2005, 2:33 pm: If you don't like him, then break up with him. Basically, you are just leading him on. Sure, your friends are an influence, but it's your choice. If you feel bad about the earing thing, give them back to him and tell him you would rather be friends. Or, you can keep them ;). Lol, follow your heart and good luck!
clotito answered Tuesday April 19 2005, 9:44 am: Hmmm, I get the feeling that I'll be answering this question a lot during my time here. First off, only you can decide whether to break it off with him. In most cases unless your date is abusive or simply a complete idiot a month usually isn't long enough to tell whether or not a relationship will work.
In your position I might discuss with him the issues that are threatening our relationship and give it another month as we both work to resolve those issues before making a final decision.
However, if you have your heart set on breaking up with him, I always say, don't do it all at once. It may sound silly, but the example I give is this: When you were a kid and your ice cream cone started to melt you would do your best to catch what you could in your hands. On the other hand, if the bottom fell out of your ice cream cone all at once, all you got was ice cream splattered all over your shoes. Your relationship is like that too. Give him a chance to be ready to be dumped. Talk to him about these issues first and even have an argument if so moved; that way the dumping won't be such a complete surprise to him.
After all, how would you feel in his position? How would you want to be treated? As a final thought, if you dump him any time soon, give him back those earings, because those sound expensive. [ clotito's advice column | Ask clotito A Question ]
LiLJaZzY answered Monday April 18 2005, 11:19 am: well if theres truley nothing there anymore..but you continue to go out with him then your hurting him more then you would by just breaking it off with him..theres no point in pretending your happy because if your truley not people will notice..dont go out with him for what he gets you..go out with him if he brings you happiness and he obviously doesnt because your not happy..so i think you should just tell him straight up "you didnt do anything wrong..your great and i really like you but friendship wise..theres just nothing there anymore" and make sure you give him back the jewelery because if you kept it alot of people might say something like "oh yea but she keeps the jewlery..how nice" if your the type that cares about what people say then make sure he gets his jewelery back..hope i helped!! add me to your friends list and let me know how it goes!! xOx [ LiLJaZzY's advice column | Ask LiLJaZzY A Question ]
blondie4ever answered Sunday April 17 2005, 12:51 am: Well if you don't really like him anymore than you should break it off. There's nothing worse than not likeing someone and just dating him to make him feel good. Don't listen to your friends listen to whatyou wanna do just tell him you think that you guys are going in different directions and that you should just be friends. Good luck :) Keep me posted Shuree [ blondie4ever's advice column | Ask blondie4ever A Question ]
HyperactiveMiss answered Saturday April 16 2005, 11:40 pm: You need to make up your mind...Either break up with him NOW or wait it out and give him a chance. My reason for saying this is if you keep leading him on and he buys you all of this expensive stuff, it's really going to hurt when you break up with him. So you need to stop it all now or let some time sink into your relationship.
If you want to wait it out and give him a chance, try to spend more time with him. Invite him out and get to know him better. Tell him all of your thoughts. Find things you two have in common.
If you decide to break up with him just tell him how you feel. He will want to know why you broke up with him. I would probably give back those diamond earrings because he might think you want to gyp him or something. You guys can still be friends. If he doesn't want to be friends anymore, then you know he wasn't that great of a guy anyway.
We learn everything from our mistakes...and this time you should have learned that you shouldn't date a guy you don't have strong feelings for in the first place. But even if it turns out you don't have strong feelings for him, don't feel bad. Dating is all about trying things out, finding out what you want, and bonding with someone. If it doesn't work out you move on and look for what you really want. Good luck with your boyfriend! [ HyperactiveMiss's advice column | Ask HyperactiveMiss A Question ]
xoxhayley answered Saturday April 16 2005, 11:22 pm: Do what YOU feel is right and how you feel when your with him, and without. Only you should decide if you want to break it off. You are young and its not the end of the world, i mean it mite seem like it, and it has only been a month. Your friends probably just think you too are cute, or its cool to have a boyfriend but its how you feel. and if you arent going to do it because you feel bad- Don't, because you should really do it now before he gets more attached and you'll break his heart more. See how things go.. and if nothing sparks, then i suggest breaking it off. Remeber, try to be friends afterwards, and there are mayn fish in the sea. ;) Hope i helped, good luck [ xoxhayley's advice column | Ask xoxhayley A Question ]
MCalways answered Saturday April 16 2005, 11:17 pm: Try givinbg him a little more time..Its only been a month! Try doing more things together, something like going to the movies, or the arcade or something like that! Boys can be really hard to figure out, but give him a little more time. If you still dont notice any change in your relationship, then I guess you should break it off. :( [ MCalways's advice column | Ask MCalways A Question ]
