Dear Cupid,

I know I'm young but I have been through so much in my life that I just need someone to talk to me like a person and not like a silly and cute 5 year old little girl.

I am having a horrible issues with 2 boys in my life. About a year ago i went to another state to visit my dad when i was introduced into his secretary. I met her family and we all became VERY close. I loved them so much. I especially had become close to her 15 year old son. We started talking and before i knew it i liked him. We were always together, we knew every detail. He was my first kiss and I was completely in love, especially when he told me he loved me. After my vacation i had to go back to my home state but we still always talked. After a while we kind of stopped talking and I felt like we were losing each other. This went on for a while until I finally explained to him that I couldn't stand not talking to him and we broke up.

Once back in school at my home state, I started liking a boy name *Gabriel. We ended up dating and I was happy. I am still with him and I really like him but i do not love him. When we got a break from school I went back to my dad's state and started hanging out with all my friends including the boy. I realized that I still love him so much and that he might still love me but I'm not sure. I need help on what to do. I don't want to lead on *Gabriel but I don't want things to not work out with the other boy either. Please just help! I am an emotional wreck!

All of your advice helped so much! I have been able to let go of my ex because I realized that it was just a summer love. My dad has moved so when i visit him i wont be around my ex. Gabriel and I have became so close and I have no feelings for my ex! I am so happy! It couldnt be more perfect! I realized that Gabriel is so much better for me then my ex! Thanks so much!

Thanks guys but i am still so lost. While I was up with my dad over a recent break he acted liked he still liked me and everyone kept saying he never stopped talking about me. Now that I have got back home it's different. He acts as if I dont exist on websites like Myspace. ugh,,, but once I get back up there I gurantee he will act like he always does while I'm with him,

P.S. you guys help so much! Thanks you so much :]

Neanthia agony aunt:'( Summer love never exactly worked for me either, mine moved away, still haven't heard from him.

But, I'm sorry, "cute 5 year old little girl" the people on this site usually takes you seriously, that just cracked me up, I'm 13 I'm on here for love problems too, so far I've had serious, caring help. Some of which I'll try to give you if I can, If I can't feel free to tell me off.

Your heart is split in half, not broken just in two different places at once. There is no easy way out, I'm sorry to say it. When it all comes down to it, you're going to have to choose,no one else can, Gabriel? Your ex? OR, (yes you do have an OR) neither, you can remove yourself from the situation entirely.

My advice is, why are you with Gabriel if you're in love with someone else. Denying your heart will do you no good. Then again long distance relationships, well we all know how they usually turn out, but there have been exceptions, you could be one of them if you work at it(meaning write him, email him, call him, text him, send him pictures). We still have our whole lives ahead of us, you and me both.

Best of luck hun. :)

Personally I think if you don't have your heart in it 100% then let "Gabriel" go, don't string him along when you have feelings for this other boy. As for the boy in the other state talk to him about how you're feeling ask, if he doesn't feel the same way then talk to each other about what your next move may be. If things don't work out with him maybe when your healed from the break up "Gabriel" will still be around.
