cottongin agony auntare there any particular reasons why you feel like you can't talk to her? if there are, address those FIRST. Tell her what you feel, and tell her that you want to be able to talk to her.

If you aren't comfortable bring these things up with her, my suggestion for the crush, is make it obvious around her. I never tried, i guess i was just obvious without knowing, because somehow my mom always figured it out, so she would be the one to bring it up with me, and that way i have always been comfortable talking to her about those kind of things.

Can't really say much other than just talk to her haha. She will most likely be very understanding of everything you are thinking about and very willing to help you out. I'm a guy who doesn't always like to show much emotion at all and don't ask about much to my parents, but I know that my mom is always there to help out and I'm sure yours is too. Give it a shot with talkin to her :)

Aly Jane agony auntYou can trust your mom and talk to her about anything. She was a preteen once and knows what you're going through. Moms really do know best, even if you don't know it at the time. She'll be a better source of information on these subjects than your friends, anyway.
