Question Posted Wednesday July 31 2013, 10:00 pm
so found out a guy is about to ask me out and i sorta like him but im not quite there yet. But my sister has been texting him and told him that i like him, which is sorta true. But i also feel bad for him because he is from a broken home. I am 14 and a girl from C.A.
If he does ask you out, you need to be honest. You don't need to say yes. You need to figure out how you feel and if you're ready for a relationship. It's that simple. If he's a good guy, he'll understand. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]

As a teenager myself, I know your position. You probably feel like it's necessity to have a boyfriend and it can be kind of exciting when you find out a guy you like likes you back. If you don't think that you are ready for a relationship, I think you should either tell him that you aren't ready yet, OR you could just go for it but take it slow. Like reeeeally slow...
And about the broken home part, when a kid's parents get divorced, their world kind of just starts falling apart and they will lack love in their life. That's when they start looking for love outside of their home, like flings and relationships. [ ieatjello's advice column | Ask ieatjello A Question ]

Rest easy dear. Dating is not about making a long term or even life commitment to one person. Dating is for the purpose of getting to know someone well enough to know if you would like to be around them more or if its time to stop seeing them and move on. You use this time to tell if you dont just like someone as a person but whether there is any spark or chemistry there beyond the excitement of a new relationship for the first month or so that acts like chemistry. You want to see if you have things in common and how he treats a girl which you can't tell from texting or just saying hi at school.
So when he does ask you to spend time with him, tell him that you aren't making any promise to date only him right now. you only want to find out if you have things in common and if there is some chemistry between you. As long as he knows you aren't making a commitment right off the bat, all should be well. Always be honest up front.
Best wishes. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
