Collaroy agony auntHi,

It won't be easy but he is is incredbily naive to think that a 16 year old girl wants to settle down. He must be living in a fantasy land. You are probably still at school for crying out loud!

Tell him that while you love him to bits you have just met at the wrong time and at 16 you have lots of decisions to ponder about your future and settling down is not one of those options.

Even at 22 most girls don't want to settle down , so I really don't know where this guy is coming from.

good luck.

You could tell that you're very young to be in such a serious relationship and that altough you love him and may want to settle down with him in the future, that you're not ready to do it just yet.

Be truthful, but I think if you mention wanting to date other men he may get hurt.

Good Luck. x
