How long should I wait for my ex?

I’m 13. My boyfriend and I broke up a month ago. He says he still likes me a lot, but he just needs some “space” and “time.” I really, really like him, and I told him I’d wait ‘til he’s ready. But it’s been so long that I’m tired of waiting. I want to ask him about it, but if I do, he might find me annoying.
 

Dear Tired of Waiting,

Most breakups don’t come with tidy explanations. Rather than breaking up with you outright, he may have though it would be easier to say he needed time. Ha! Easier for him, not you. Please don’t wasted any more hours waiting for his text or call. Not only does waiting in the wings as Little Miss Available put you in an unflattering light, it’s eating up your valuable time. Get out there and laugh with friends, and remind yourself that you are too young and wonderful to be moping and hoping about one boy. If way down the road you two pick up where you left off, fine. For now though, don’t be sitting at the intersection wishing it would happen.

I moved away from my ex, but he stills likes me and I still like him, is possible for us to work out? OR is he just another dream that won't happen?

Hey girl, if you're close enough to see each other in-person, it might work out.  But if you live too far away to ever actually see each other, then it's probs best to move on.  Good luck, chica.

MOD MOD MOD!!!
Prom is coming up and I'm not as excited as I should be. Here's the story. My boyfriend of almost 2 years isn't allowed to go. But he's deciding to sneak out by saying he's going to sleep over his friends house, which he will be, but also go to prom that night. Everyone is on board with it, except my parents. They don't know he's going. They knew how upset I was when he said he couldn't go, but they were still happy I was going. I don't want them to think he's a bad kid for sneaking out, he's really not. His parents are just super strict and he didn't want to miss out on a high school experience. If I don't tell my parents, I feel like I'm lying to them, and they'll be feeling bad for me for no reason when they have no reason to because my bf is going now. And if they find out without me telling, they might be upset for not telling them. How do I tell them that he's sneaking out without them being upset? Please help!

 

You should really tell your parents what's going on... it's important for them to know what is going on. Try sitting them down and explain to them how his parents are really strict and he doesn't want to miss this high school experience. Also include that you really only want to go with him! Then, tell them the plan he has. I'm sure they will understand! Make sure you tell them that you trust them not to tell his parents! Good luck!

Hey guys! I can't decide whether I like this guy or not. Is it possible to like two guys at once? I think/know I like one of them, but I'm not sure if/how I like the other one? HELP!!!
