my mom thinks that ever since i got my heart broken about 2 or 3 years ago, i like any boy that tells me nice things. that's not true. i had a boyfriend after that and it's been six months that i broke up with him after i found out he was gay. but, i really like this boy and she made me swear on everything that i wouldn't kiss him next time i see him or not to let him kiss me. and i kinda like this boy. and she's just being a pain about it. i don't see what's so bad about it. talking to her isn't going to help. i already tried
2 questions:
- how can i keep the kiss from happening that night? (like to make it seem like i want it but not at this moment--- kinda like play hard to get with the kiss)
- how can i stop my mother from thinking this
TheTeenGirl answered Monday July 10 2006, 2:25 am: I think your mom really does need to back off of who you are with when it comes to how you're feeling about this guy, but what she's honestly worried about is that you'll instantly fall for him when he tells you what you want to hear and suddenly everything becomes blinded around you which happens to a lot of people.
About the kiss with this guy: If you want the kiss from him, don't try and stop it. I think the best way to prove to your mom wrong is to go about your love life in the way you always have. The next time she starts to pick at you about it, just say, "Well I know you feel that way, but I honestly wish that you would think more of me and let me decide whether I think a certain guy is really into me"
Please note that that is not talking to her. It's simply replying to nagging about it and you should use that all of the time. And when she continues to argue the point, just tell her you don't want to talk about it and everytime she nags you about it, you don't feel like you can be open with her with boys.

First of all, i know that your mom sounds really stubborn and thats she's being a pain about it as you said, but she's only doing that because she's worried about you, and doesn't want you to get your hear broken again. Thats her job, to take care of you, and make sure that your happy about it. And you know that your probably really happy with this new guy and all, but she just doesn't trust anyone after you got hurt by a boy before. So give her sometime, and mabye she'll start liking that new boy your talking about.
second of all, if your sure that you really like this boy and he does too and that he won't break your heart too, then kiss him, why not?
Live your life, and do all that you please, because if you are doing this , then you are doing it to prove to your mother that she's wrong about that boy and that he really does like you.
Finally, if there are any other concerns or troubles, please be free to contact me. [ Lola's advice column | Ask Lola A Question ]

But if he does, then you can just simply turn your head a little and say, I really like you, but im not ready.
But your mom never said anything about not kissing him the next next time you see him, so if you still like him after turning him down the first time, then just kiss him the next time so he knows you are ready!
hope this helps :) [ advicefashionista's advice column | Ask advicefashionista A Question ]
