Question Posted Wednesday September 12 2007, 6:04 am
so my bf and I are both pretty shy when we're around each other. We hung out the other day and my one friend was practically forcing us to hold hands. what should i do to get this friend to mind her own business? and how do i overcome some of my shyness around him?
illwill24 answered Wednesday September 12 2007, 9:42 pm: I would try confronting your friend very nicely and just tell her that you and your boyfriend want to do things your way and if this friend would please stop because it makes you feel uncomfortable. as for the shyness thing the best cure for that ,and i know it's clique, is to talk to him about it. lay your feelings for him out on the line and let him do the same so there is no question about the level of attraction between you two. it may just be that you can't really figure out exactly how much he cares for you and therefore can't react appropriatly. you kiss your mom on the cheek because you love her as a parent, you kiss someone you like on the lips timidly cause it's something new and exciting, you hold hands lay on each other and kiss pationetly because both people in the relationship feel that they understand the other and are sharing something very special. it all depends on the feelings involved. I hope this helped:) [ illwill24's advice column | Ask illwill24 A Question ]
