Hello readers.

I'm 22 years old and love giving advice. I would even consider it as my hobby as I go on this website pretty often. I have been in countless relationships throughout secondary school and calmed down after I left sixthform. Longest relationship being almost 3 years. I've also had my fair share of family problems, which I am open about if it helps someone out with theirs.

A quote I live my life by:

" Don't let today's disapointments ruin tomorrow's dreams"

Advice I'd give generally for relationships are:

- don't rush - you may not see the bigger picture

- compromise - you can't always please eachother

- don't other think everything - as overthinking can get you confused to what you really think and cause arguments

- try to be positive - trying to improve everything may lead to you forgetting what good you already have

A.   26 September 2010: Either in about a weeks time, text him saying that a boy asked you out and you can't see him anymore. Or, just text him the truth about your age. Do it in real life if you're brave enough. And to stop liking him, try to see/date other guys. Don'... (read in full...)

A.   6 August 2010: Your ex is your ex for a reason. And the fact that you feel he is being quite foward about his feelings towards you even when he has a girl friend is not good. He might be acting the same with other girls, but you won't know as he lives far away. ... (read in full...)
