Ok so, my crush asked me out last night so of course I said yes. I'm new to the whole dating experience, im only 14. I like him a lot, but whenever the thought of going to the movies or something comes up, I automatically make up an excuse to not go. I don't know why. I'm very co-dependant and I would be too scared to go anywhere unless it was a double date or something. He says hes okay with that but I dont know whats wrong with me. I think my main fear is making out. Yea yea laugh, but I guess im just scared to do it. I dont know whats wrong with me and why im so scared to go anywhere with him. I'll rate you high. Thx a bunch
Additional info, added Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:20 pm: Its not the making out that im scared of because i know that if i dont want to do it, then it wont happen. I just dont know why im so scared to even go out and do anything with him.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life? Sisofasoldier23 answered Friday July 8 2005, 3:19 pm: this is how i was on my 1st date. i lied to my mom about going and said my best friend invited me and he needed a ride. so my neighor drove us. i had everything set up and rushed around getting ready and i realized i was going on my 1st date once i got in the car. i calmed down because i realizd i was going to be with him. i was scared to makeout too but i figured i had to do it and i loved him so much that i did. and everything went okay.. just tell him yes, look awesome and have fun. relax and dont worry about it. ( best place for a 1st date in my experience is the movies )
xbrunettex answered Friday July 8 2005, 10:09 am: Hmm maybe you just arent ready to date. But remember having a boyfriend means having some one on one time, not to just make out and stuff but you talk and learn about eachothers lives and really get to know one another. So if you dont want to hang out with him without lots of people around then maybe yeah you just arent ready? hope i've helped.. =)
rockstarxlove answered Thursday July 7 2005, 1:05 pm: well he's your boyfriend, and you need to learn not to be scared with him, right? soo i think that you need to force yourself to not say no, when people ask you out. try to be less shy. dont worry about the making out. just tell your boyfriend wat you told us. he'll understand - unless hes a jerk. && you could start out going on group dates, but eventually you will have to do single dates. i think its pretty normal tho. just try to be calm, dont worry about it. dont think about making out. but make it clear to him, your not ready on your first date. okay? good luck.
karenR answered Thursday July 7 2005, 12:30 am: Maybe you're afraid you won't find enough to talk about or something...wouldn't be a problem.
You just need to say yes and go one time. Going out on an actual first date can be real intimidating, you just have to get past that initial fear of it and you will do fine from there. Try it :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

Trust me your not alone in all of this;)
twistedsister17 answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:49 pm: Just because you go out with him, doesn't mean you have to do things with him. You should just enjoy being with each other. I think you need to suck it up and say yes to him. You don't have to go to the movies...just go to like a local snack shop or deli or hang out with a group of friends if you're REALLY scared. Anyways, I wouldn't keep blowing him off with excuses because he might think you don't like him anymore. [ twistedsister17's advice column | Ask twistedsister17 A Question ]
Ambix3 answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:34 pm: It's normal to be shy in the beginning of a relationship. Tell him that you would be more combortable if you guys took it slow, and he'll respect that. Don't be afraid to go any where with him. Sit him down and tell him that you don't want to be pressured to do anything. Don't worry. Your not in this alone. He's probably shy too. Just take it slow to where your combortable at. Tell him to come over, and hang out of something. Do something with him that you'll be most combortable at. It doesn't always have to be going to the movies. But over time, you'll get more combortable with him. I wish you the best of luck with him!!
mongaloid123 answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:31 pm: ok just tell him the truth!! that you are to scared to make out and stuff. i mean thats not that big of a deal. and you dont have to make out every time you go on a date!! just tell him that ur not ready! trust me! he will totally understand if hes the right guy and a good boyfriend! hope it helped!
partygurl24 answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:19 pm: This is totally normal. Don't be afraid of him. Treat him as if he were a friend...you know, someone you can just hang out with and have a great time. It may be difficult, but you have to try. If you don't feel comfortable with making out, then tell him because you don't have to do anything you don't want to do. I'm sure he'll understand. I hope I helped!

ALEXandADRIANA answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 9:09 pm: Hey babe! Do not sweat it. We had a friend that was scared to make out with a boy until she was almost a Sophomore in Highschool. It is completely normal. The best way to get over it is to face your fears. Be the one to suggest to him that yall see a movie. That way you are less likely to back out since you were the first to suggest it. If you are very uncomfortable about the whole making out thing then let him know ahead of time. Or just deal with it as it comes. We would also suggest that if you really think the reason you will not go out with him on a date is because you are afraid of making out then pick a public spot to go to. That way the situation will not occur. Go to the mall or skating or anything that is out in public. Do not feel rushed or scared! When the time comes, you will do just fine. Who knows, you might even be better than him! Goodluck with this boy. Remember if you are not ready yet, do not feel like you have to do it just because your friends have or he wants you too. There are plenty of other girls that have not made out yet and there are plenty of other guys that will respect what you want. Goodluck and have fun being young! We definitely miss those days =/ [ ALEXandADRIANA's advice column | Ask ALEXandADRIANA A Question ]
