i KNow this might be a kind of weird question, but how would u hug a guy? Like he goes around my waist and i hug around his neck is that alright?? I Kind of like him too Tong




Hey girl,

Usually, if you're a lil taller than him or the same height, you reaching around his neck will work. If he's way taller, let him go around your neck and you can hug around his waist Smile It's mostly about what is comfiest!

Mod Mod!
I have a BF and it's like we're not dating..we never talk or hold hands or anything. But I think it's because both of us are shy/nervous and we're just waitin on the other person to do something. How do I fix the the "not going out, but going out" type of thing? And if our relationship's like this, Should I get him something for Christmas? What should I get him? Would some candy with a sweet note be appropriate?
Thanks Mod! (:




Hey girlie,

You gotta make that first move! Since you're both shy, he's also probably thinking about taking your relationship to the next level...but doesn't quite have the guts to do it. So try texting him a little more often to establish contact! Chat online if he's on, post things on his Facebook wall, and ask him to hang out. The next time you see him/part ways, try giving him a quick hug. When you're watching a movie, try lightly brushing his hand with yours, then trying to hold hands after some time has passed. Don't come on too strong (like texting him too much in one day), but making that first move will make him more comfy around you! Over time, it'll get better Smile As for Christmas, candy and a cute card TOTALLY works! It's not too serious or personal, which is good since you are still kinda newly dating. But it's still thoughtful and sweet! Smile
