Question - (19 December 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 12 January 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I like this guy so much that I'm jealous. :( I've known this guy for a a year and he's helped me through so much, he's like a best mate, the only problem is that he lives in Edinburgh which is 200 miles away from me, a few months ago we started meeting up and I fell in love with him, I can't even think of any other guy, I've had boyfriends but I always dump them because I'm too obsessed with this guy. The guy only wants to be mates and I don't actually mind that as long as we stay as close as we are. The problem is is that I know he's going with other people as well as me and it actually makes me feel sick when he says he's in a pub or something just because I know he's with gorgeous girls. I don't act horrible to him when he says he's in a pub of course but I just feel horrible.

An even bigger problem is that he thinks I'm 18, I'm 16. We met on a site that was for over 18s (nothing sick, just a normal site lol and I'm not on it or anything it was just a stupid mistake for joining) and I didn't think to correct him cause he never asked so I never thought about it, and now we've gotten so close I can't tell him. :( He's not like anyone else, he has extreme morals and if he found out I'd lose him completely forever. :(

I agree with the Dark Knight: You have a lot of growing up to do. Let this be a lesson to you: Never lie. Abraham Lincoln said "No man (or woman) is smart enough to keep track of all the lies he tells." It's just wrong and sooner or later you'll be found out. The Bible says "The truth shall set you free." You are now trapped in a lie.

But take heart, we all make mistakes. It's a part of growing up to learn to take responsibility for one's mistakes. I don't want to tell you what to do,and I am sorry you feel so bad. Just wanted to give you something to think about.

TheDarkKnight agony auntYou're the same age as me, 16 and trust me, we still have a lot of growing up to do.

You may not want to here this but as we mature further we will find someone we like, trust me

It's ironic actually, I am in love with someone who lives down in England and I actually live in Edinburgh myself (by the way, it's not a great place, never have feelings for someone from Edinburgh! haha) and due to this distance I can't be with him, despite him being 17. The only way I am getting through is by constantly telling myself that one day he'll suddenly have a girlfriend or I'll find someone here who is similiar too him and I'll just have to get over it

BUT, you're only 16, which means that when you are 18 you will probably find it easier to meet him and he me notice this and the feelings may develop and you never know, you may end up together!

I'm so sorry for you! Good luck, keep your chin up :)
