A female South Africa age 30-35, anonymous writes:

i;m almost 16. i have been with my boyfriend for a few months.. but took a long break in the middle of it.

in total i have seen him about 7 times. i love him so much. most of our "time" together is over the phone. we speak evry night and text eachother ALL day!

i'm ok with this though but obviously i do want that physical contact with him.. more often. he lives really close to me so distance isnt the problem. he would want to spend every day with me if he could, but its me. i am really busy with school work during the week and weekends are so hectic for me. i know i am making silly excuses and i know the real reason is that i am very very nervous to see him.

i think i am going crazy!! i want to be with him so often and my mom wants to meet him but i always cancel and make excuses. whats wrong with me?

i am very lucky to have him, he is a wonderful boyfriend. but i feel so bad that i am a terrible girlfriend. why cant i be excited to see him.. wait i am excited but i chicken out. How can i get over this feeling? So far he has accepted that he cant see me often but how long can it last? soon he is going to get fed up and u never know he might break up with me. he wants a real girlfriend and i try hard but something stops me from giving it all. I want to be the perfect girlfriend for him!!!!! he deserves so much. i have just got to get over this anxiety i get when i think of meeting up with him, please any ideas how i can do that?

its so weird that i feel this way because its not the first time we'll be meeting. i am just a very shy person and he is very outgoing and i dont enjoy being around a lot of people because he is not shy to do things in public and stuff.

please could anyone give sum advice and help out. not really sure what to do! i dont know how long this can last if it carries on. anyone ? thanxx

Hey slow down... There is nothing wrong with you. You are bound to be busy at this time in your life, theres no need to blame yourself here. You still have loads of time to get to know each other and start feeling comfortable with one another. It all takes time, stop stressing. You have to accept that youre not perfect, he is not expecting a perfect girlfriend. If you cant give him anymore time then Im sure he will understand. Try not to chicken out to see him, we are all humans and he wants to get to know the real shy you.. Dont ever be too shy or ashamed of who you are. Be proud of yourself, and show him what a beautiful girlfriend you allready are.
