We're both 12 and in 7th grade. We just found out we liked each other and so I need some dating advice. It's been 4 years since I've had a girl friend and that was like when I was smaller, and we just hugged each other and stuff, but is it any different now? Please answer ASAP.

Just be yourself. Do what comes natural. You want to hold her hand, hold it. A quick kiss, a quick kiss... though I'd start on the cheek, buddy. Don't want to move fast. Go do something together out side of school. And just ask her.

Thanks :)

LOL. I remember 7th grade relationships xD. I really would not think that you're relationship is all that. Be a realist and understand you'll break up. Take it slow, so if that happens your still close friends. Just make sure it's really what you both want. Oh, main point. You might think you're so much more 'legit' than the sixth graders, but really. Really. 7th grade relationships do not matter at all in the grand scheme of your life. No, I'm not being a douche, but straight up, no. your not in love or anything. Not being mean it's the truth. At that stage of life you just want to be on of the 'cool' kids, and not necessarily yourself because of it. You might not know it now, but that's how it is. I thought the same thing. And, I was one of the mature ones, as in life and girls. I don't think I'm cool because of it , but I've been in a relationship for two years now because I waited till we were both mature enough to handle it. Oh and if you are just going to be awkward around each other than don't saying your going out. Just go back to being friends... All people talk about in 7th grade is O.M.G. they made out, and he FELT HER UP. Its not that big of a deal, again not bashing, kids just grow up to fast these days, and think they're more mature than they really are.

Lol, she broke up with me a few weeks ago but we still best friends :)

Dating when you're 12-13, the relationship doesn't usually last very long. 2 weeks can be considered a long one lol. It's an awkward age for dating.

She may be feeling that she likes a boy and can't wait to hold hands a lot and MAYBE kiss him on the lips..

He may be feeling pressure to french kiss from him piers...

Communication is a BUST because that takes maturity... being besties is the best way to go because anything more can make it awkward... which is why the relationship doesn't last.

Just my opinon. jebug29, isn't it way more comfortable being best friends? I mean you can be yourself now (even if you still want to hold her hand and kiss her some days).

There'll always be a new cutie to date... peace. :)
