Guys Tease Me About My Boobs

My boobs are way bigger than all the other girls my age, and guys tease me and say mean things.

How can I let it go?

Most well-endowed women have grown to appreciate their curves, and you likely will, too, one day. For now, when guys tease you, simply smile, say, “I like my body,” and walk away.

Remind yourself that every time an immature guy makes a comment about your chest, it’s because he’s in awe of it. But if this continues to be a problem, consider talking to a school counselor about it.

Mom's Marrying A Complete Stranger!

My mother is marrying a guy she has only known for two months.

I like him, but this is moving a little fast for me.

While your mom might be sure this guy is “the one,” it might take you a little longer to get used to seeing a virtual stranger pour o.j. in the morning. Let Mom know you’re happy she’s happy and that you like her fiancée.

But tell her things are moving too swiftly for you. Maybe if the three of you were to spend some time together, it would be easier to get used to the idea of your Mom walking down the aisle again.

My Friend's BF is Bad News

My BFF has a new BF. I overheard him and his friends say they smoke pot. I told her, and she said I was just jealous. 

The next day, he hit on me. He’s a great liar and has convinced my BFF I’ve made it up…and she believes that jerk!

Short of affixing a mini-spycam in your brooch, it could be difficult convincing your bud of her new boy’s wily ways. She’s probably so excited about having a BF that she’s missing the warning signs that he’s way less than perfect.  Sure, it stings that she trusts him over you. Still, put hurt feelings aside because concern for her is what’s important now.

You have two options: 1) Run with the spy theme and develop an elaborate plot to catch him in the act, or 2) give your bud time to wise up—which is what I’d do. Sooner or later, she’ll catch on (or catch him). When this happens, restrain yourself from the “I told you so!” dance.

Upset About My Mom's Breakup

My mom and her boyfriend have been together for over a year, and they recently broke up. The three of us always had fun together.

When my mom told me, I said I was fine with it, but I’m really not. I went to my room and cried, thinking of all the great times.

It’s weird because I could always talk to my mom about stuff but, at that moment, I couldn’t.

If you’ve always talked to your mom, don’t stop now. No doubt, she’s also sad so share your sorrow. Rather than only looking for comfort for yourself, give her a hug. You’re both going through a tough time, so talk about it. Don’t say, “How could you two break up? He was so nice!”

Do say, “I’m sad he won’t be around anymore because he was my friend, too. Of course, it must be even harder for you.” She might welcome such a conversation and, even if not, you’ll feel better for having expressed yourself.
