How to be...


Question Posted Monday January 16 2006, 9:02 pm

Okay so apparently i've known this guy since before i was born! Our moms are best of friends even after "his" family got uprooted and moved far away. Our families stopped seeing eachother for a while. We just started getting together more and in the past 6 months, we've seen eachother 2 times. I am 13 and he's 14 almost 15. I have feelings for him, and no way is it lust. He's not even that attactive, but his personality makes him so much hotter. The last time we met, he was trying to convince me about something (i was too busy day dreaming to listen to what it was. Something about cornbeef) my face got hot and i turned away and laughed my head off. So did he. I think I'm such a dope! I can't even look a guy in the eye without laughing!! I acted myself and everything! Is this hopeless? I mean he IS almost 2 years older than me. He's 5.2 I'm 4.11. He's immature for his age.

Wow, you really have it bad for this guy!! But two times in the space of six months is not very much at all and as much I hate to ask this, are you sure it is worth pursuing a relationship with someone you see that little of?

However, if you really do care about him and it sounds like you do, and if he cares about you too then you owe it to yourselves to try to make a go of it.

The age gap is a little concerning, but only as far as the fact that he will be legally allowed to have sex two year before you and you really should not be rushing into anything like that until you are old enough. Remember that you are only just into your teens and as you get older, you may find your feelings towards him change and vice versa. I would recommend you see if you can have a relationship but tread lightly, at least to begin with.

Sometimes you just *click* with a person and there's no explanation for it. That you find yourself drawn to him in spite of him not being "that attractive" could be a sign that there may be something there worth pursuing; something that goes beyond mere physical factors and those kinds of relationships are often more solidly constructed than those that depend purely on physical attraction. If you feel that you need more time to "test the waters" so to speak, then by all means take as much as you'd like.

In many cases it's actually better to let things flow naturally than to "force" yourself into a position where you feel compelled to date somebody just because you think that it's "the right time" to do so. All in all, if being around him makes you feel good about yourself and he feels the same way, then I'd say go for it.
