Trust me your friends are more important at this stage in your life. I sometimes wish I could have been in a relationship when I was 15. Looking back I can see I wasn't ready emotionally and definitely lacked the maturity for a good relationship. I'm nearly 19 now and still feel the same to an extent.

clickyclick agony auntOkay, you have a boyfriend and you have lots of friends that's always a good thing.

Perhaps your friends are having issues with having to share you. We all get jealous of having to share someone with other people some time in life, you can't stop that from happening. But you can persuade them to see your side of the story.

If you get together with all of your friends and your boyfriend and just talk it out, i believe you can work it all out. Just say something along the lines of "I know you're a bit upset, but you have to accept the fact that I have a boyfriend now and he has just as much a right to spend time with me as you girls do. If you accept me and him are going out and that we need to spend some time together I'll promise i'll try to spend more time with you lot but still spending time with my boyfriend and maybe he couldcome along aswell. If you are my friends you should try to understand this as best as you can. So what's it gonna be?"

Don't stick to just that feel free to bend it a bit or completely scrap it if you want. That's my advice to you, the one who would know the best way to solve this issue is you! Take sometime out to think and I'm sure you'll come up with something!

Think of the solution not the problem.

Best wishes for you and your boyfriend, hope you meet the 6 month mark!
