Question Posted Thursday November 13 2008, 7:44 pm
16/f and my boyfriend's 16/m.
We have an immature relationship and I never get to see him. The only reason I'm still with him is because he's my ex boyfriend as well, and he's my first, so I can't let go too easily. I feel like I'm wasting my time with him, when I could go out there and experience a better relationship. But something's holding me back when I attempt to break it off with him. I start feeling bad for him (he's very attached to me, I think) ..I bite my tongue and forget what I was going to say and I just can't do it. But I KNOW (underline) it HAS to be done. Does anyone have any advice on how to do this without having any regrets? It certainly isn't going anywhere.

And i REALLy do understand the part of you havinq a problem tryinq to break up with him, and look honestly what you have to do is tell him honestly, because (everyone says this] the longer you wait the harder and worse it gets, but i made a mistake with my last ex by lying to him sayinq my mother made me break up with him, just tell him, be like "look i know you really like me, and i like you too, but not as a boyfriend, and i know it may be hard for you but take it like this, if i stayed with you feelinq sorry, i would be leading you on and wastinq your time, so im sayinq this becauase i dont have those right feelings for you," remember god has a plan for EVERYONE and i quess you weren't riqht for him, just be honest hun because that's the best you can do, maybe over text or myspace or aim, person is the best, but whatever you feel cofortable with.
