Thank you, talaniman. I absolutely agree that at this point it should be my choice. I learned from my past. This man in my life does not have baggage in terms of problems with an ex, or a child. He...

Hello everyone, long time no post.

I am pleased to say since my mini-"retirement" I have been growing closer to a friend I have known for 6 years. While we are not dating yet, because he insisted...

You leave her alone. There's not a whole lot you can do at this point if she has decided to remove you from every aspect of her life. She can make her own choices, and you need to do the same and...

5 months is really (in my opinion) not nearly enough time to get to know a person in depth. Some people get married for YEARS and then literally just find out/learn that their beloved was not the...

I get a lot of pain too during ovulation. What helps me usually to ease out the cramps and pains is a hot bath. Simple; yet effective. Just lie down in a bathtub with very warm water to soothe your...

I am assuming that since you have posted your question on a "Middle School" board, that you're very young. You also mentioned you are not allowed to date.

Now, as for the dance, you know you don't...

It sounds like he just wants some form of stimulation in order to get a "quick release". Kissing is rather intimate and passionate (depending on the circumstances)

How old are you two? How long...

You can't go wrong being humane and friendly. Seeking out to give him something he indeed does really enjoy sounds very wonderful.

In the end, if you are comfortable with where you both stand,...

You're 17. I don't mean to sound preachy, but you've got a LOT still to learn and experience. I totally understand the feeling of being entirely "done", but often times people who say that go right...

Very good point, and it is indeed logical. I just don't understand still how parents (mine too) can lament about how they want their children to be happy in life, do what makes them happiest, etc,...

Yes, I live at home, and the only source of support my parents provide is food and utility bills. I pay for my own clothes, school expenses, entertainment, etc.

No, it is not entirely weird for a girl to make the first move. So men are a bit slow at grasping where their own feelings as well as yours are at, so you need to initiate it.

However, as someone...

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well.

Good news since my last post. The man I am romantically interested in told me his ex has calmed down and so has the drama in his life as well as my own....

Hello everyone, I hope all is well. I know I barely posted on this forum not even a week ago, so I sincerely apologize to pop up again so soon, but life IS kind of funny in that regard.

Anyway,...

Thank you so much talaniman and Oliver2011 for taking time to read my questions and consider them carefully. I really appreciate it, and I have learned so far that as talaniman stated, it is very...

Hey guys, 2 questions. Maybe this will also help other people who have the same question (s) in mind.

First, it lately seems like everyone around me (friends, family, etc) is in a relationship,...

Best way to get over your fears : Face them. Sometimes all it really takes is a push. Just say "Hi, how's it going?" and see where it goes from there. Anyone can make small talk and it's better than...

Ask the pharmacist. I studied though that the time frames they put on them are there for a good reason. This site may help you though, because I have never been on any of those pills, so I will guide...

It sounds to me like she was stringing you along for the purposes of a puppy love and her own personal "experiments" if you will. But think of it this way in a more positive light: Would you rather...

You really need to look at your post and write down all the negative aspects this man has in his life. If they outweigh the good, then that should answer your question.

He is clearly not able...

Either he trusts you or he doesn't. It's that simple. If you tell him you are friends ONLY with your ex, he needs to take that into consideration, trust you, and continue your relationship.

OR he...

No problem. In the future, try keeping your guard up a little longer before declaring such intense emotional feelings. Trust me when I say this, if I could go back in time, I would honestly never...

If you were out of the country then there could be many reasons she broke up with you. Maybe she was seeing someone else, maybe she couldn't handle a long distance relationship, maybe she was...

In answer to your first question : Am I wrong for not wanting him to watch porn because it makes me feel bad? No. You are not at all wrong for not wanting him to watch porn. Everyone has their own...

Re-read your question carefully. "I say something rude" that stuck out for me enough. It is simple logic: If you're going to be rude, don't be surprised if others are going to be rude back. Perhaps...

She is indecisive and immature in my opinion. How long have you two been together? In your question it says 2 times, and in my opinion neither of you should be confiding in each other about such...

You may need to work on listening skills. You'd be surprised, but so many people claim they are good listeners when in fact they really only want to hear what THEY want to hear WHEN THEY want to hear...

Maybe he is busy? LDR's are like that. You always are taking a chance, and not to be harsh but realistically speaking, since it IS a LDR, he could be seeing someone else on the side who does indeed...

Is there any other relative you can talk to who isn't trying to force a match for you? If so, I'd approach them. If that is not an option, you should talk to both your parents or one of them and tell...

Good stuff. That is a more positive and healthy approach. No one ever said it would be easy, but you have to know you are capable of doing it. The first step is approaching and admitting you need...

Exactly. It does indeed hurt, I totally get that. I could write a book on how many times I have been lead on and wasted my time trying to hold on to the hope that so and so loved me when in reality I...

Hey we all make mistakes, smithy2050. If it is any consolation I too wasted almost a year of my life with someone who didn't appreciate all the effort and emotional energy I put forth for them to see...

You have to accept the fact that she will ALWAYS be a part of your life because of your daughter, but let that be a more positive point, if you can. What I mean by that is you can start doing better...

Well ask yourself this too : Considering fredg already stated, the rate of children getting hurt in these types of situations, would you rather let your daughter grow in a mentally and emotionally...

You're better off just agreeing to disagree, if you know what I mean. If she thinks it best for you to leave them both be-mother and daughter, do so.

I agree with fredg. If her friends are a bad influence on her, then you can talk to her about it in the best way you can, but you have to stop beating yourself up about things also. There's only so...

Being jealous is not healthy if it is between friends only. Jealousy can destroy the best of friendships AND relationships. Do you trust him as a friend? If yes, then you need to be less jealous and...

Forgive me but in order to try and help you I am going to be a little harsh, so bear with me.

First off, if you are already in debt because of your car and finance, then why are you two trying to...

It may be obsession. Jealous is a sign of obsession. For all we know he may be as good friends with the other girl as he is with you. You need to detach yourself from him for a while. Focus your time...

I see tons of University students and college students taking their partner with them to their prom , etc. That's not really an excuse. My personal opinion: If she is not comfortable with taking you...

This is just plain torture on both sides. If she doesn't know what she wants, then no offence, but she should not be getting into a relationship because she is only hurting herself and the other...

She's not even 16. She has not fully matured mentally and emotionally. I seriously hope her parents are not fond of you two being together (I know mind wouldn't if I dated a 14 year old). That being...

How old are you, first of all? Perhaps it is not really 'love' you are feeling but lust and jealousy combined together to form some sort of obsession. If you both have already communicated and he has...

I have pretty much been in an almost similar case back 7 months ago and I too came for advice on this forum. Someone suggested to me that I should not get involved in other parent drama, and I found...

Don't be too dramatic. I seriously doubt you'll be "single forever" as you put it. But you have to ask yourself this : Would you honestly prefer marrying and staying in a trustless and broken...

You have issues moving on. I know it has been 4 and a half months, but that's still a pretty long time for a breakup. You need to consider that you're in an entirely different environment than she...

Well your gut instinct is usually a good enough indication. What's the point of staying with him when all he does is give you doubt and bad vibes?
That is not helping your emotional health and your...

All you can do at this point is speculate and cause more worry for yourself. Try communicating with him more. If you feel he is hiding something, then there is no trust between the two of you, which...

Why are you putting yourself through so much headache and heartache is what I want to know. Based on what you posted, this man has a pattern for confusing you: hence the being nice, saying he is done...

I can understand *though not entirely* you wanting to have a 'perfect family' and helping your son see that you did in fact 'give it your all'. However, consider this: Would you rather have your...
