Okay so i have a boyfriend. And i dont know how much i really like him, like sometimes i really do but other times it seems like he's just there. The farthest we've gone is like kiss, and we never hang out outside of school. So i almost just consider us as good friends .. considering before we started going out i would kiss my good guy friends all the time, like on the cheek. So me and his relationship is just like one step farther.. and i almost think its dumb. Two of my good girl friends are a year older then me and they both loved that went out before but think that i should break up w/ him now. i said i think i should too.. because i do. but i know that he'll be pissed, and not talk to me for like who knows how long. And i really wanna continue to be friends w/ him. Both of my friends think i'm gunna chicken out, and i am just scared. And dont know how i should deal w/ this.. i am really close to alot of guys in my grade, and can be sort of a flirt. me and my boyfriend barly talk & it really doesnt even seem like were going out. But i dont know, i dont wanna him to like hate me if we do break up. And my ex best guy friend, is really good friends w/ him now. And thinks that i'm like a horrible girlfriend to him, and that i treat him bad because i sort of deny him sometimes cause i think its awkward. But i dont know how to tell w/ that either. its like if i do break up w/ him that my ex guy friends gunna hate me even more. And were almost becoming friends again.. i dont know. Please help me ...

If you do end up breaking up with this guy, yes, he may be very upset and will not talk to you but that is what's suppose to happen after a break-up. If breaking up with him means for another guy friend to hate you, is he really worth building back up a friendship for? A lot of girls always won't break up with a guy because they are afraid that they won't ever be friends again, but that is something you'll have to live with. It happens, and sure, maybe after a long period of time you can become friends again, but if I were you, I wouldn't count on it.
If you don't want to break up with this guy, then give this relationship time to move forward more. Don't be impatient just because a month or two passes by and nothing is happening yet. This is normal, and thats how serious relationships grow. They put in time to know each other more and then you begin to break out of the shy shell and start actually doing things. And the reason a kiss isn't feeling so exciting with this guy is because you mentioned that you already kiss your guy friends on the cheek. Of course it's not a lot to do, you do the same thing with your friends!

Just say "So, how are you feeling about us lately," or something simular to that. Plus, if he takes it the wrong way, well, then maybe he will just break up with you, and you dont have to do the dirty work, because he'll end up doing it for you.
Well, i ho-pe that i helped at least a little bit even. [ hev7777777's advice column | Ask hev7777777 A Question ]

Ok. If you look at the whole situation, maybe you and your boyfriend really just need to, talk. Try to make things not be so awkward. You said in like your second sentence that sometimes you really do like him. Maybe the thing you need is actual time. Good luck with everything...I hope this helps ♥
