okay - so I'm 13/f( if it helps? ) and I really like this guy named Austin - and I've known him since I was in diapers - I've liked him since 3rd grade but I fell in love with him in 5th grade. We went out all through 5th grade until summer before 6th grade - then we broke up and around October of 6th grade we started going out again, we broke up after 2 months cause I moved 2 hours away and we never got to see each other as much as we did, and we're now at the end of 7th grade - we haven't gone out since last year - I'm still head over heals for Austin and he asked me to come visit him this weekend(Memorial Weekend) so i am - he has a girlfriend named Danielle, she's one of my really good friends - he told me he wanted me to come visit him because Danielle and him had been fighting alot lately and he just wanted to hang out with me and just like you know catch up since we havent in over 5 months. I don't know if he just wants to really catch up or if he likes me ya know? He never really cared to talk to me or invite me to hang out with him or wonder when I was coming down to my old town until he found out him and his girlfriend might break up. I was just wondering if you had any adivce? Of if you knew what I should do?

Mackenzie answered Tuesday May 24 2005, 2:11 pm: Well I think you should definitely go, foR staRteRs. And maybe he might INFACT like you; would that be so bad?? ON THE OTHER HAND... he *DOES* have a giRlfRiend, one I hope to death he is commited to. Knowing that he alReady has somebody, I pRay you would have moRe Respect foR him, Danielle and even YOURSELF not to engage in any touchy-feely soRt of things with him, ya follow? If you feel theRe's still a chance foR the two of you in the futuRe.. then it WILL happen.. in due time; theRe's just no Reason to Rush things and become physical too soon, agReed? And peRhaps you might be able to get a feel foR this guy based on his behavioRs this weekend. FoR example, if he's soooo quickly willing to be allll up on you, so to speak, then what makes you think he wouldn't be that way with SOME OTHER GIRL if the two of YOU weRe to eveR date? If you ask ME, I say that's *definitely* something to think about! TRust is obviously a *V.E.R.Y* impoRtant thing in a Relationship; especially if theRe is a gReat deal of distance between the two paRtneRs. Long distance Relationships aRe extRemely tough foR *EVERYONE*, not to mention youngeR teens. Just keep youR moRals in mind, and focus on establishing a fRiendship with Austin; that's wheRe it all begins. Goodluck to you! Know that you can always come back to me if you eveR need anotheR opinion. =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
