I'm 15 so i guess I'm not in "love" but I have really strong feelings for this guy whos a bit of a bad boy.
Hes ll months younger than me and the little brother of one of my best friends. I thought he was gross and not worth my time for the past 3 years that I've known him until now because I've gotten to know him. Hes white. I'm black. I have straight As and am about to skip a grade. Hes failed once or twice and is still in the 8th grade [im in the llth].
I'm a virgin and have never touched a drug or drink in my life. He isnt a virgin and used to have a habit of being under the influence. He seems to be quitting and has treated me better than any other guy I've dated or liked and he doesnt try to push anything on me like sex or drugs or anything.
Hes actually looking to me to help him stop. Both of us have strong feelings for each other. Should I be with him or am I wasting my time with this bad boy?

for3v3r_his answered Tuesday March 11 2008, 12:40 pm: He wants to stop. The effort is there. You two like each other. You are the one he wants by his side and the support that he will most value. Also a positive, he hasn't pressured you into doing anything that you have never done and wouldn't feel comfortable doing. He respects you. Knowing he can better himself and being willing to shows that he is a strong person. This shows if he makes a mistake, he will try to fix it. If he hurts you, he will try his hardest to make it up to you. Helping him stay on his new path won't be easy but if you care for him, be there. Give him a chance. Good luck. I hope I helped and I hope it works out. [ for3v3r_his's advice column | Ask for3v3r_his A Question ]

Trust me, there are plenty of virgin guys who are just as likely to pressure a girl (or not) as one who is more sexually experienced.
Lovetornado answered Monday March 10 2008, 7:32 pm: Well if you think hes worth your time then your not wasteing it. and i know how you feel. Im mixed and i git pretty good grades and im dateing a guy that isnt all that good. but i like him and he likes me and hes yonger. So if you like him and he likes you. Everything else doesnt matter because hes straighing up. [ Lovetornado's advice column | Ask Lovetornado A Question ]
