Okay my boyfriend is in 8th grade & im in ninth so we never see each other & all his 8th grade friends hate me with a passion (there girls). when i try to talk to him after school i feel like we are so distant! like he notices me & talks to me but it doesnt last long at all & i never see him as it is. confronting this with him made it a little better but its still going on like he doesnt understand ! how can i fix the distance thing.

Maybe he's just plain shy in relationships - or isn't comfortable with seeing you at school and being all "lovey dovey", perhaps.
If it doesn't get better within a while, or if nothing seems to be changing since you've had a talk with him, you might want to reconsider about dating him.
For now, talk to him again and give him a bit of time to get used to it.
If you don't connect in a relationship, it won't work. Simple as.
Best of luck, girl! [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]

(preferrably guy. idk. just what i think. [ muzikislife9's advice column | Ask muzikislife9 A Question ]
xgracee8P answered Monday September 3 2007, 6:18 pm: This may sound corny, but like plan times in the day that you can see him, try to be alone when you do this. This will make you and him less distracted so you can talk longer. Try to hang out with him after school, even if its only for a half an hour. Just try and see him as much as you can, and urge him to plan stuff too. I'm sure he'll follow your lead. If he doesn't then you have to seriously think if it 's worth it to stay with him. Good luck!
