there are a lot of ppl involved so here's a list:
Jake: (boy; 16) my ex-boyfriend
Brit: (girl; 15) Jakes ex-girlfrind, not my friend
Matt: (boy; 16) the guy I think I like now
John: (boy; 16) My BFF basically, used to be Jakes bestfriend till we broke up but they kinda still hang.
Tess: (girl; 15) my good friend
Ben: (boy; 16) some kid I kind of had a thing with
Phew. And I am a fifteen year old girl. Okay so Jake and I dated for seven months, but he was abusive, verbally and sometimes physically as well. We broke up and he started telling people we did all these things we didn't do, like had sex and stuff. Well he and John used to be super close till he found out all the horrible things Jake did. Alright so this boy Ben, he's kind of a player. He dated Britt for a while, who is Jake's ex-girlfriend. So when Ben asked me out on a date I said no because I didn't wanna take another one of this girl's Britt's left over guys haha ya know? So yeah... he's kind of out of the picture but I still kinda like him :/ ...
Anyway the main guy I like right now is Matt. He's super sweet and nice but I feel like I want myself to like him more than I actually do. Also, Matt and Jake HATE eachother. Jake almost started a fight with him a few weeks ago when he saw me with Matt even though we aren't dating anymore... I wanna be with Matt but at the same time I don't want himr or Jake to fight and someone get hurt. And there is one more complication here...
John. He and my friend Tess kind of like eachother. Except that Tess is talking to a bunch of other guys and she recently told hiim she doesn't think she likes him, they still ya know, kinda talk. John and I are super close. We hug and cuddle and I hold his hand and sit on his lap but I've always seen it as just us being good friends. Like we did it while I was dating Jake too, we're just super good friends. He knows everything about me. I don't know if I have feelings for him...
We were hanging out at the park the other day and I was sitting on his lap on a swing and I was making fun of him cause we joke around that he's liked all of my close friends. All three of them have hurt him though. Like, they say they like him and then they tell them they don't. We were joking around like "hey I'm the only one left!" and he suddenly got kind of serious and said "Ya know I should just try going after you. You'd never hurt me." ... I don't know if he was serious. I feel like our relationship has always tetered on the edge of liking eachother but I just don't think we'd ever work as a couple. We'd be so dysfunctional. Plus he's still kind of good friends with Jake...
Soooo my life is a mess. And I really neeed to know what to do about Jake, Matt, Ben, and John... Please don't judge me. I don't know what to do, I just want to figure this all out and I don't want to hurt anyone... :(
soccerrocks answered Tuesday July 6 2010, 5:23 pm: well I think that if you had true feelings for John you wouldn't need to ask yourself if you like him or not. You should ask yourself why you think you like him. Is it because in a way maybe as a joke maybe as the truth he's told you he has feelings for you or do you honestly have feelings for him? If he hadn't have said anything would you still consider liking him? Don't forget to not hurt yourself, because the way you feel and your feelings are just as important as your friends' feelings.
