(I'm 13/f)There's this guy (lets call him M) and I thought I liked him so I told him I did and now he's my boyfriend. But the problem is I don't anymore. And I don't think I ever really did. He likes me a lot. Another problem is I like another guy (let's call him S) and I know he'll never like me back because he's really cute, and I'm, well, not. (He's into really pretty, really skinny girls)
So, what do I do?
1) How do I let M down easy and not hurt him too much?
2) Should I forget about S and move on?
(P.S. I know it said only to have 1 question per thing, but I thought maybe it'd be okay since it's the same topic?)
Additional info, added Friday January 27 2006, 8:06 pm: As I read it now, I don't think I made some things precise enough so I'll clear those things up.
1) M likes me a LOT. He doesn't /love/ me because of course we're only 13 and we don't have a clue of what true love is, but on a scale of 1-10, 1 being "I can stand you" and 10 being "I love you" he probably likes me an 8.5 at least.
2) S isn't just some stupid really attractive popular guy. He's in gifted class. Whenever I'm around him or I'm around people who are talking about him people say I blush. I know girls aren't supposed to chase guys and I have no chance with him, but; have you ever found someone that's really good looking, you have so much fun with, they can make you pee your pants from laughter, and you can't have them? That's how I feel about him. . Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life? Shoval answered Saturday January 28 2006, 12:28 am: Well...this is tricky because you told M that you liked him before, so now he has got it in in his head that you really like him.
what you should do is just break up with him easily and nicely. say something like, "i thought i liked you a lot but i was just unsure about my feelings towards you. i hope we can still be friends" you will feel much better afterwards.
the thing about S, do not like him. you say he is only into really pretty and skinny girls, that just shows that he is an ass and really shallow. you should not like someone like that. [ Shoval's advice column | Ask Shoval A Question ]

And about S... dont sell yourselve short like that! There is always a possibility! Try to talk to S more, talk about things that he like and laugh at his jokes... but don't put your heart on him, in the mean time just scan your school for other possibility's.. your still young! soooo many guys so little time :oP
Never compare yourself to other girls ("He's into really pretty, really skinny girls") Your really pretty in your own way (everybody is!) and those really pretty girls might just lack in their personality! Be the best YOU can be, make the best of what you've got
iiloveyou answered Thursday January 26 2006, 11:22 pm: first of all, to let M down easily you should tell him that you think its best for both of you to be just friends and nothing more . then about S if you know you cant have it then hes not worth chasing after . boys are the ones who are suppossed to be chasing after girls, not the other way around .
also, if M is sad or whatever dont feel guilty . just remember that you dont like him anymore slash never did so its okay and you are going to be friends . everything will turn out just fine .
