Boyfriend trouble!!


Question Posted Tuesday June 13 2006, 8:14 pm

ok, I've been goin out with this guy for a little over 3 months, he's 16 and he can drive and I'm 15. It's summer so he's always tellin me how he's really buisy, I never see him anymore b/c he says he's always gone... in someways he sounds a little "overly" buisy. He lives like 8 minutes away from me, and he's only come to see me one time ALL summer. When we first started goin out I liked him sooo much that I made the mistake of telling him i would never break up with him... Things aren't working out and I don't feel the same about him, but I don't want to hurt him and I don't know how to break up with him in the right way. I don't want him to think I'm a liar and I regret tellin him that cuz I should have known it wouldn't last forever... What should I do?

this happened to me, just the other way around with the "ill never break up with you" crap. people lie and make "promises" that they cant keep. its just a part of life and eventually you'll come to terms with it. Talk to him and see if he feels the same way, its the most you cna do before actually brekaing it off...that is one thing i regret not doing with my ex, and now we're not even friends anymore. Try and save as much of the firendship that you can because after all you did spend a lot of time together, and better break ups just suck. it messses everything up and leaves you feeling empty inside....good luck and i hope everything works out better for you than it did for me....

Everyone always says they will never break up because at the beg. everything is always good then starts falling apart.I don`t think he will think your a liar because you shuld tell him why your breaking up then he should understand bcus what`s the point of having a boyfriend if you only see him ONE time the whole summer when he lives 8 mins away..Just tell him how you feel & see if you and him can see each other more & if not then break up.♥

Hi, have you actually tried to tell him how this makes you feel? If you feel as though he's just simply not your type or things are'nt working out, the basically you could:

a) Tell him how you feel, and give him some time to look at this situation
b) Finish with him

I think (A) is the best option. If you don't tell him properly how this makes you feel and you hold it inside, then he just thinks that things are going O.K. Sometimes we need to say something, or it never gets dealt with. Let me know how you get on if you like. Daniel.

The best advice in life: Dont EVER regret something that once made you smile. And dont EVER regret something because at one point you wanted it. Telling him you would never break up with him was what you wanted and believed, and im sure it made you smile. You cant go back in time.. so dont worry about lying to him. When you tell certain guys you love them, then you break up and hate him... is that lying to him?

It might not make a lot of sense.. but the point is: dont worry about him calling you a liar. But if things arent working out you shouldnt be held down by something you said 3 months ago.

I think you should talk to him. Let him know its not working and that you NEED to see him more often. If he says he cant and gives you a lame ass excuse like OH IM BUSY.. well then the jackass needs to be busy with his GIRLFRIEND.

If nothing works and he STILL isnt around, then tell him you think you should take a break, or tell him you're better off as friends. Let him know that you cant be in a relationship where you barely see the other person.

hope i helped

Even people in the most committed relationships such as marriage believe in the beginning that they will make it together forever. Once we really get to know the person we often find out differently.

Tell him that you made a mistake and now feel different. There is no really right way to break up with someone, but the best approach is to be honest. If he is head over heels for you it will hurt no matter what, but it also hurts to be with someone who doesn't love us the way we love them. So really, in the end you are doing him a favor if that is how you really feel.

well, you cant help it if things didnt work out. thats neither of you guys's fault- from what i can see. just tell him how it is- but let him know that youre not trying to hurt him. no offense to you in any way- but who knows- he may even end up having the same diffeerent feelings about you as well!
good luck- and lots o luv

Well, if you don't feel the same way just say this;;

"(Insert name here) I have something to say. I remember when we were first going out, I REALLY liked you, and I said "I would never break up with you." Well, this summer I haven't been seeing much of you, and I am feeling more of a friendship between us. I really don't want to hurt you, but I think you are too busy for me. Sorry."

-Hope I helped

I would talk to him. Tell him you want to hang out more, and when you do see if you still really do like him. I'd also tell him if he can't find time for you, you won't wait. Your not really being a liar, he just can't find the time for you two to really be a couple. Sorry I can't help more, Good Luck!
