Weird to have few friends? I have moved 4 times in 2 years during middle school.

Q.   I have moved over 4 times within 2 years, during my 7th and 8th grade years. That means I have attended 5 middle schools. I made many friends in each middle school, but never got a chance to become best best friends... So in high school, I basically ...

A.   28 January 2011: No. That's understandable. When you've moved around so much it can be difficult to find a good friend in someone, and for that to stick. That can be difficult even if you haven't moved around. But I really think you should try and be more soci... (read in full...)

Q.   Hey, I hope that you can help me out with this :) I'm just wondering if this guy fancies me or not :L I don't usually talk to him, and we only really started talking just before Christmas :P but in that time he has added me on fb and msn and I wa...

A.   13 January 2011: There's no guarantee but it definitely sounds like he fancies you! Good luck.... (read in full...)

Q.   do long distance relationships ever work out? ive been seeing a this girl for a little over 2 years and we are in love. the thing is that she got an opportunity to go work in europe for 2 years and she decided to take it. We both want her to stay ...

A.   10 January 2011: It can work if you're committed to each other and trust each other. It takes a lot of work but, with compromise, it's definitely possible.... (read in full...)

My ex is getting back in touch. Should I reply?

Q.   i broke up with my ex-boyfriend in january 2010 and we weren't together long (4 months) and it ended on bad terms. we haven't been in contact since then and i don't have his number and i am not his friend on a social network site. so on new years ...

A.   6 January 2011: I don't think you should get back in contact with him. I doubt he's contacted you again so that you can just be friends. It sounds like, despite ending on bad terms, you were happy to move on from him. He treated you badly and he'd probably do the ... (read in full...)

Does it sound like he's truly falling for me?

Q.   I met my current boyfriend in a chemistry class last semester. We finally went on a date 2 months ago and have been together ever since. He is smart, tall, funny, athletic, takes care of himself, and everything else I've been looking for! We see ...

A.   27 December 2010: Yes. He sounds genuine and promising.... (read in full...)

No girl has shown interest in me since the break up

Q.   So broke up with my girl friend about a month ago and no other girl has shown any interest in me at all and I'm starting to think that no other girls in my area have any interest in me and it's really bummin me out. What do? ...

A.   24 December 2010: It's only been a month, so don't worry. Someone will show interest with time. ... (read in full...)

She wants me to ask out the guy I like...for her!

Q.   i kinda like this boy, but i never told anyone he is about 1/2 years older he always smile at me on the bus and i laugh at him with my friends and stuff like that but then afterwards my friend liked him but i never told her i like him and she wants ...

A.   24 December 2010: Don't ask him out for your friend. You may be friends, but why should you get involved in her relationships? If she wants to ask him out, she should do it herself. It's unfair to ask you such a thing, especially when you have feelings for him (even ... (read in full...)

Does the constant calling and texting after breaking up mean she still loves me?

Q.   hi recently me and my gf broke up i still love her very much but she doesn't plan on getting back. now even though it was a horrible break up we are still very good friends but what i don't get is she wants to text and call how we used to. we even ...

A.   24 December 2010: I don't think it does, sorry. It sounds like she wants attention but doesn't want a relationship. She's using you. So stop texting her and don't respond to her. You're not in a relationship now so why should you text her? She's stopping you from ... (read in full...)

Am I too young for love?

Q.   Am i too young to be in love ? I'm 15 years old. The guy i'm in love with is 2 months younger than me. We never officially dated, but we act like a couple. I have never fallen for anyone before, so i cant be sure if this is really love. I really ...

A.   23 December 2010: You're not too young to be in love. It's difficult when you're young to differentiate between love, infatuation and a crush. A lot of teenagers claim to be in love, but it's more likely to be infatuation. But what does it matter if you're in love... (read in full...)

Should we just stay friends?

Q.   okay so i am 16 in high school i like this bot in my year as well we are both 16 and we are both single . i like him but i don't think he would ever see anything in a girl like me because i don't pile my make up on i do't wear my skirts that shor...

A.   23 December 2010: First off, looks don't matter. I'm sure you're much more attractive than you think! Don't put yourself down! You're already friends which is good. It shows that he likes your personality. If you get on well, then you have a good base for a ... (read in full...)

Should I think there is still something going on between them, or are they really just 'best friends'?

Q.   Well..Ive been dating this guy for about 4 months now and am so in love, but like every other relationship we have our share of problems. In the beginning I wasnt the only girl that he was seeing at the time. He lied about the other girl even when I ...

A.   21 December 2010: I don't think this guy sounds trustworthy to me. If he was seeing another girl when you first got together, doesn't that suggest that you can't trust him? He keeps on lying to you about this girl which sounds as if there could be something going on. ... (read in full...)

Why did he get so moody when I invited my friend over too?

Q.   ok so my parents went away for the weekend and my boyfriend was going to stay over without my parents knowing, anyway i asked my best friend to stay over as well but when my boyfriend came round and she was here he got all moody. then when i told ...

A.   21 December 2010: It sounds like he really wanted it to be just the two of you and was really looking forward to spending some time alone with you. You didn't do anything wrong. You weren't to know how he felt.... (read in full...)

Should I give him another chance?

Q.   So me and this guy are always on and off, he's only 2 years old than me * 1st time- we hooked up, he stopped talking to me * 2nd time- we kinda worked things out and talked for a little then we hooked up again, then we ended things after a lit...

A.   20 December 2010: It sounds a bit dodgy to me. If he only finished with his girlfriend a week ago then there's a risk that he's looking at you as a rebound. You have history and you've been on and off, so why wouldn't you say no to him this time? He could be missing ... (read in full...)

Getting married in 11 days...but I'm scared and going to miss my family!! How do I deal with it??

Q.   I am 21 years old and will be getting married in 11 days. I've lived in the same house my entire life and with the exception of my brother moving to Texas, my family has always been around. After the wedding I'm moving to Florida where my fiance has ...

A.   20 December 2010: There's no question that this is a big step for you, and it isn't going to be easy. My best advice would be to take one day at a time. Remember that getting married is a happy occasion, and moving out comes as a part of that for you. Don't expect ... (read in full...)

Is it normal to be in a relationship and not use tongues?

Q.   This isn't anything serious - I saw a question yesterday and it got me thinking. I hate snogging (as in kissing with tongues.)I've been with my boyfriend for a while now (just over a year) and when we first started dating that's how we used to kiss ...

A.   20 December 2010: Yes, that's totally normal. A lot of couple have preferences and many leave out certain things. It's not strange or abnormal, it's just finding out what you enjoy and feel comfortable with.... (read in full...)

Am I going through a second puberty???

Q.   hey, i don't know if this really counts as question suitable for this site or not, but anyway. i've been in a really good mood lately, i mean really good. the 'i can barely contain my happiness' good mood. which i'm not complaining about, not i...

A.   18 December 2010: You're still very young and you're still going through puberty, so you're hormones are going to be slightly erratic. It's possible that your good mood and flirting is down to that. There's nothing wrong with being happy of course, but the flirting, ... (read in full...)

When will I know I'm ready for sex?

Q.   Im 16 and recently got a boyfriend. he is really sweet and takes good care of me and i feel completely relaxed about him. me and him got a bit drunk, and we ended up pulling in a forest. we got a bit carried away and i ended up unbuttoning his shirt ...

A.   14 November 2010: Don't worry about feeling guilty because there is no right time. Some have sex on the first day, others wait years. You're ready when it feels right. You'll just know. You may be nervous but you won't have many doubts. If you're not sure, then you ... (read in full...)

I feel like a freak of nature!

Q.   First I have to inform you all on the story, before my question makes some sense. Okay...Teens/young adults my age usually, already have sex or have sudden urges to do the said act. But...I find myself not feeling those urges, and frankly I don't ...

A.   14 November 2010: Yep, totally normally. There are many people who've lost their virginity at your age, but there are also a lot of people who haven't. Some people are bothered whether they have or haven't, others aren't. ... (read in full...)

A.   12 November 2010: Yes. Do it! But.. I know it's hard to tell people how you feel, so I have some suggestions for you. If you want to tell her straight, then arrange something. Ask her to meet you at a certain place at a certain time when you know it'll just be the ... (read in full...)

How can I get to know her more so I don't lose her to someone else?

Q.   dear cupid,i am confused, frustrated and i need help.There is one girl who normally sits next to me in class...from the very first day that i got admission to the school.,she always stares at me.But the problem is anytime we come in an eye ...

A.   12 November 2010: Talk to her. You've both noticed each other so you may as well take the next step - have a conversation! That is the best way of getting to know someone. If you're in class together then just ask her a question about the work or comment on something ... (read in full...)

"I haven't explored the sea enough" thoughts.

Q.   I am making this post to pretty much get "free therapy". I know I am having some emotions, but I don't fully know how to interpret them. Here is the situation at its basic level. I recently lost my virginity to my girlfriend. She has been in ...

A.   11 November 2010: I think what you're feeling here is some sadness, disappointment and jealousy that she's not been able to fully share the experience of losing your virginity with her. You feel she's given you something (or taken it away in this case) but you've not ... (read in full...)

Why do I feel like this still?

Q.   I am 17 years old and recently got dumped by my boyfriend of 15 months, who's 24 (yes, I know, you’re probably thinking ewww, but that’s not the problem here) The problem is that when I say recently I actually mean about 3/4 weeks ago :( and...

A.   11 November 2010: First off, don't worry about feeling this way. 15 months is a long time so naturally you're not going to get over him in a matter of weeks. As for contacting him again, I agree with your friends. The love might be there but your relationship soun... (read in full...)

We're both shy, who makes the move?

Q.   I'm sixteen years old and have never had a girlfreind, but a few weeks ago (well, 7) I met a girl who is just about perfect, it's just that I have the age-old problem of not knowing if she likes me or not. She seems to be the shy type which makes ...

A.   11 November 2010: You could try talking to one of her friends. I agree with the others. You should make the first move. If she's too shy to sit by you then there's no way she'd admit to liking you if she does. The good news is that it sounds to me that she could like ... (read in full...)

Why are younger women attracted to older men?

Q.   I am posting this to ask for opinions more so than answers. It is my hope that the opinions expressed by people in reply to this can help me to answer my question - myself. What I would like to get your opinions on is this Why do you think tha...

A.   10 November 2010: I agree with some of what you say, although you have to remember that this doesn't apply to all girls. An older man would be a turn off for me. I think one of the main reasons some young women are attracted to older men is maturity. Girls matu... (read in full...)

What should a guy's confidence be based on if it's confidence itself that actually matters?

Q.   Good looking women go with rich, famous, and good looking men, right? To me, there appears to be a hierarchy of men because of this. The less rich, manly, and successful, the less attractive you are to women (let's just use the 'best looking women' ...

A.   9 November 2010: I think in terms of a woman's 'ideal' man, they'd love someone attractive and rich. But men are exactly the same! Women think all men want is blonde, skinny, model-type girls with big boobs, but (thank god) that's not strictly true. When it come... (read in full...)

Is he just trying to charm my pants off?

Q.   Why do I feel like this?? what is wrong with me:(? ive been seeing this guy..hes soo sweet,, hes like the first guy..that's actually treated me right..hes soo sweet and he says he loves me dearly..(he hasn't changed after we had sex..hes still th...

A.   9 November 2010: This doesn't sound like a relationship problem. It's more of an issue with yourself which is stopping you from trusting this guy. Has anything happened in the past which has made trusting people difficult? I think this guy sounds genuine. A lot ... (read in full...)

This guy is zoning in on my boyfriend!

Q.   Last night me and my boyfriend got into a really big argument. It started about this guy who fancy’s my boyfriend and saying stuff like ‘hey u sexy thing’ … I got a little annoyed as obviously I didn’t want other people talking to him like that and ...

A.   9 November 2010: Well if you trust your boyfriend, then you needn't worry. I'm sure if this guy goes too far your boyfriend would let him know. It's likely you have a lot less to worry about than if it was a girl coming on to him! It's understandable that you don'... (read in full...)

Should I be bold and just tell him I like him or what?

Q.   I really like this guy at my school. He's in the grade above me.I'm 17.We have mutual friends so whenever he greets them he greets me too. He always looks right at me when he says hi(not sure if that's a good sign or nothing). But we've never really ...

A.   9 November 2010: Yeah, I think you should make the first move. If he's a closed person then he's probably quite shy. So even if he did like you, he's unlikely to tell you how he actually feels. Telling him straight out is a risk, but sometimes it's worth it for ... (read in full...)

Girlfriend likes to abuse me and then says "Grow up and take it like a man"

Q.   my gf says she likes to put me through pain and likes to give me hard times. my gf likes to punch me hard aswell as nipple twist and pinching. she also likes to strike at my emotions and i'm a very sensitive and she knows it but all she tells me to ...

A.   7 November 2010: No, it doesn't sound normal. It sounds more like bullying than anything. I know that some couples might do something like this as part of foreplay but, like you said, this is abuse. So get out of that relationship. A girlfriend should love you and ... (read in full...)

Too shy to talk to him... Help!

Q.   Ok so I like this guy... He's in band. I have no idea where to even start with him. Normally I go for the jocks and stuff and I know how to get pretty much any guy from that click. Now I'm not one of those girls that care about that stuff but this ...

A.   7 November 2010: Next time you see him, say 'hi' and tell him that you've seen him with his band. That'd be a good opportunity to start a conversation with him and ask him some questions about himself. Hopefully the conversation should develop. If he's not your ... (read in full...)

As long as we can make it..is that a good response?

Q.   So I asked my boyfriend how long did he see us together and he said as long as we can make it. Is that a good thing? ...

A.   7 November 2010: Yeah, that's good. It shows that he wants to be with you but he's taking things as they come rather than planning ahead.... (read in full...)

My friend lied about how far she went with her boyfriend, should I talk to her about it?

Q.   Hi. I found out recently that my friend lied about how far she'd been with her ex-boyfriend. We were at a sleepover and she told all of us that he'd fingered her and she'd given him a blow job. Im friends with her ex-boyfriend and i had a feeling ...

A.   6 November 2010: I can understand you're upset about it, but I think you should forget it. It's something quite personal and she might feel under pressure or that she's being judged. You may be friends, but there are still some things that are private to her. At a ... (read in full...)

How do I get to be drop dead sexy?

Q.   How does a guy create the underlying feeling that he is sexy/attractive to women? By underlying, I mean the type of feeling that comes before thought. The type of feeling you have automatically whenever you perceive something, but haven't made a ...

A.   6 November 2010: For me, it would be someone with a bit of mystery about them. Not someone who's in the forefront of all the action, but someone slightly more reserved. I think eye-contact is important to catch someone's attention and it creates this vibe of ... (read in full...)

Should I phone her and explain myself?

Q.   PLEASE REPLY SOON! Well I went to a party back in May, and started to talk to this girl that I had briefly met before, and we sort of acted as if we were going out(SHE kissed ME etc), but neither of us asked eachother out, and I left the party and ...

Is there really such a thing as fate?

Q.   do you think fate is real? Like If two people love eachother do you think fate will bring them back together after they stop talking...

A.   2 November 2010: I think it's a combination of fate and our choices. I believe fate provides us with opportunities. It's up to us what we do with those.... (read in full...)

Does my teacher have any feelings for me? Or is he just being nice?

Q.   My teacher is 24 and started teaching in my school in september (im 15 from the UK). He's not really what others would call 'fit' but i really do like him. I admit to having crushes on teachers before but not like this. And i thought i just ...

A.   2 November 2010: He's messed with your head and played with your emotions. Staying away isn't enough. You need to report him for your sake and that of the other pupils in your school. What if one of the other girls in your school were abused by him in the future and ... (read in full...)

Does my teacher have any feelings for me? Or is he just being nice?

Q.   My teacher is 24 and started teaching in my school in september (im 15 from the UK). He's not really what others would call 'fit' but i really do like him. I admit to having crushes on teachers before but not like this. And i thought i just ...

A.   2 November 2010: This doesn't sound right. A teacher's job is to teach you and encourage you to learn and succeed. It helps if you get on with the teacher and enjoy the lessons, but his behaviour? Too far! He's 24 so he's young and inexperienced. And yes he might be ... (read in full...)

Did I drive him away?

Q.   When I was in college, there is guy whom I did not noticed at first. He showed signs that he like me, but he never confess anything. One time, I saw him with a girl, and I was very jealous. One time, I was walking at our school, and he smiles me. ...

A.   2 November 2010: Yeah, I think he stopped smiling at you because you don't respond. He probably thinks there's no point bothering because you just ignore it anyway. That doesn't mean that he doesn't like you though. But he's may have been put off you slightly ... (read in full...)

Is thing going anywhere or should I let go? If it is going somewhere, then what?

Q.   What are my feelings? What are hers? Did I upset her by mentioning the other girl when we had dinner? Is she having feelings for me or concern? A few weeks back I was visiting my very close friend for the day before she left to go abroad for a yea...

A.   1 November 2010: It's hard to say. It sounds like you're very important to this girl. Her reaction may have been a mixture of her concern and feelings for you. It's difficult to say. So, although this could be a bit risky, I think you should go with your gut. Anal... (read in full...)

How can I get rid of these irrational fears?

Q.   I have irrational fears of my boyfriend wanting to leave me, cheating on me, and looking at other women. He's never given me any reason to not trust him, would let me go through his phone at any given moment without question. These fears though are ...

A.   1 November 2010: This sounds like you have more personal issues rather than issues with him, so you need to work out why you're so paranoid and address that. Do you feel you're not good enough for him? Does your relationship seem too good to be true? It's prob... (read in full...)

I always turn down girls due to my lack of confidence.

Q.   hi i dont know what it is but when im around a proper nice girl i fall to pieces, by that i mean; i was with my mates and these two girls, i never spoke to them before, but my mates went and asked one if i could have her number. at this point i ...

A.   1 November 2010: It's because you don't have enough confidence in yourself. So firstly, don't worry because this is common. It's not nice though, but you will get over it eventually. One of the best ways to feel more confident is to act it. If you can fool thos... (read in full...)
