Check these out, too...

Tired of meeting your cutie at the same ol' pizza place every Saturday night? So sick of re-watching Transformers every weekend? It's time to get more creative with your date ideas, chicas. Winter's clearing up and spring is blooming! This spring, leave the usual dinner-and-a-movie behind and try these cute ideas.

1. Perfect Picnic

Have a traditional picnic in the park with everything that entails: blanket, basket filled with yummy snacks and a camera to capture the memories.

2. Take me out to the ball game

Go to a baseball game together. Even if you're not so into sports, the hype of the game and being at the stadium is so much fun! Plus, hello, cotton candy galore!

3. Music to your ears

You know why outdoor concerts rock/ They're a sign that summer's almost here! Find one in your area and make it a group date.

4. BBQ Bonanza

Have a BBQ in your backyard and invite your crush and your respective crews. Plan a couple fun party games like limbo and freeze tag to get people moving.

5. Skating Sunday

Take your guy to the rink! Nothing is cuter than you two helping each other stand steadily on your wheels. Plus, it gives you a perf excuse to grab his hand.

Hey Sj96, since you can only see each other at school make the most out of that time. You both can get to school early to hang out or stay after school to see each other. Doing little things like leaving love notes in his locker and walking him to his classes will help keep your relationship fresh. Hope this helps girl! Xoxo

Me and my bf have been going out for 10 (almost 11) months now and we really like each other. But lately, we haven't been able to see each other very often. What I mean by see is be alone. It's starting to effect our relationship. He's not allowed to date so we can't go over each others houses and I'm not allowed to go on actual dates until I'm 16 (which will be in a little over 1 month). But until then, what can I do to help our relationship so we don't grow apart? I don't want to lose him. How can we spend more time together. We both do a sport after school so we're super busy and them half the time we have drama but they're really strict about PDA. Not being able to see him irritates me cause I'm not use to it and I wanna spend time with him. What should I do? Lynae P.

i need help.. my boyfriend wants to kiss me.. and i want to kiss him too.. but my mom doesnt want me kissing.. i mean really.. all of my friends had their first kiss already!!

Hey girl!

Your mom is probably struggling with the fact that her little girl is growing up and has a boyfriend! She just wants to protect you. If you're totally comfortable with your boyfriend, you should be able to kiss him. If your mom is totally on you all the time about not kissing, sit down and have a conversation with her about it. Explain to her that you have a good relationship with him and you'd feel comfortable kissing him. Kissing is part of a relationship. Remember to stay calm when you try reasoning with her. An outburst won't put the odds in your favor!

So I'm dating this guy, and have been dating him since 7th grade (I'm in 9th now). We both really like each other, and recently I feel I've grown so much closer to him. I can't hardy go a weekend without him, let alone now imagine going the whole summer without him, but right now, it seems like that may be the direction I'm headed for. My dad's totally against dating in high school in any form, so badly that even if my little sister's friend Ronnie (who's a girl) calls, he thinks it's a guy and freaks out. If he actually tried to call or I tried to call him, my dad would freak out even more. What should I do? I really want to keep in touch with him over the summer, but I don't want my dad to freak out and break us up.

hey! you should try reasoning with your dad about this. see if there's a compromise you can both agree on, say that if you go out, other people are with you guys or you don't talk on the phone but you can IM each other.

So I guess this is a dumb question, but do high school relationships ever last? i would think that they don't but me and my boyfriend (im in 9th grade and hes in 1oth) have been going out for 6 months and have literally never gotten in a fight or had any sort of problems, so i was just wondering if you think its possible for it to last.

It is definitely possible for them to last. I have a friend who is marrying her high school sweetheart soon. They have been together for 6 years! It all depends on if the two of you are really meant to be together and how hard the two of you wish to work on staying together and in love if/when you guys head to college.

MOD MOD MOD;
Today, the guy I like (who I know for a fact likes me), asked me if I wanted to go on a run with him on Sunday (which I do!).
I don't know how to ask my mom and dad if I can though... I'm sorta embarressed (he is a nice guy though- and my mom knows him kinda and my dad has driven me to his house up the street a few times for a study session/birthday party...).
I told him I probably could, but that I had made previous plans with another friend, too... which is true, so another option is to not go.
Please help? What do I say??

Hey girl,

If you're just going for a run and your parents know him and have let you hang out with him before, you should be fine -- you're not going on a date! The worst they can say is no, so there's definitely no harm in asking if you can go. Can your friend go with you on the run? If not, maybe you could go on the run a little later or ask your friend if she wants to do something else instead of your original plan? Good luck and have fun!
