Ever since my boyfriend and I got together I have been depressed. When him and I are alone I am the happiest person in the world. It is just when my "friends" get around us I am so depressed because nobody really accepts us dating. I should be happy. Why am I so depressed? Is my boyfriend the reason why? Or are my "friends"? Oh and I am 12 and so is my boyfriend.

Because at 12, many young people do not have a desire for dating yet, so you have issues of friends not understanding, other friends may start having those feelings but don't understand them, and others are jealous that you have a boyfriend. Others may like the same boy and wish they had them. Others may think that boy is a jerk and just using you.

1. why don't they accept you dating ? This could be a lot of the reason

But in the end, a person is not happy because of anyone else, they have to learn that happiness comes from within yourself, not from others, including your boyfriend

All of the people that are getting mad/don't accept us are dating. And they don't accept us because:
1. someone started a rumor that he is using me
2. he is my friend's ex-boyfriend
3. he has treated girls wrong
And then some others.

Everyone thinks that he is just going to do the same thing to me. And I can understand why but unlike the girls he dated before, I won't take him back after he dumps me the first time because of how he treated his other girlfriends.

And I know happiness comes from myself. But being around my boyfriend, alone, gives me certain feelings that make me happy.

The mere fact that you know he treated other girls wrong should be a warning to you, chances are that you will be dumped as well-why did he dump the others?. I'd be asking a LOT more questions-you may end up being the next to be dumped-he has a bad reputation. I'd say that others are trying to make you aware that he may be a "rat" to you just like he was to them.


Be very careful.

You can be happy with other more caring guys as well..
