A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

okay well i had a boyfriend in highschool for over three years. we were so happy at the beginning of our relationship. things went downhill quickly and we were always fighting and i was always crying. i tried talking to other guys so i could move on but i only wanted my boyfriend. he cheated on me twice towards the end of our relationship. but i feel i deserved it because i tried to talk to so many other guys. now i have a new boyfriend who treats me so well. he even took me to disney world recently and he buys me anything i want. i appreciate everything he does for me..but i feel that i havent truly moved on from my first love. i still think about him all the time. im not sure if he has moved on or not and i am really stuck on what to do. my heart tells me that i belong with my first love..but im not sure if he is right for me. we have been through so much and i feel like he is hte only person that truly understands me and accepts me for who i am. i am going away to college soon and my current boyfriend really wants to make it work. i feel like i need some time on my own to think about what i really want. what should i do?

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (29 August 2008):

I think you should make a clean break from your current boyfriend and tell him you don't want a long distance relationship. It's not fair that you are just with him because he's nice and he buys you things. That is using him, even if you care about him. You have to end it and offfer to give back the things he bought you.

Go to college and use the distance to get over your Ex.

Have a great time and soon you'll grow and learn that first loves are great and yes he loved you and understood you enough to manipulate and hurt you... but you won't be that person for very much longer. That was you as a little girl and after a couple of years of college you will be a woman.

Good Luck!! xx
