Do parents know best when it comes to guys?

  • The Real Deal: Why guys hate shopping
My boyfriend and I dated for a while about 4 months ago. We were in love, but then we broke up. He said some things to me and he really hurt me. Now we're back together and I'm so happy. I love him. Only problem? My parents and friends hate him. What should I do?

You’re parents and friends love you no matter what and are likely very invested members of your life. If they don’t like him I am sure they must have a good reason. They love you and just want you to be with someone that they know will treat you special. If he has said hurtful things to you before, it is likely he will do it again. Your friends and family don’t want you to go through the heartache again. Remember, they are not acting this way just to make your life harder; they have a genuine belief that his is not good for you.

 

If you whole-heartedly believe that your boyfriend has changed then you should set up some opportunities for him to prove to your family and friends that he really cares about you. He could have dinner with your family or hang out with you and your friends at the mall. After a whole if they still don’t like him then you should probably break up with him. He doesn’t mesh with your life and everyone else is seeing the bad in him that your love is blinding.

So these girls at school hate me and I don't know why...well I don't know if she likes my crush too and that she told her friends to 'destroy her!' or something.
Because I was pretty sure my crush liked me too and then he started walking this girl to school and once she was sitting with her friends and he came to sit next to her and when he wasn't looking she gave me an evil smile! :/ But me and my crush haven't even talked since long ago so why would she consider me as competition? Also my crush was waiting for his teaher and he flashed me a smile?? he's so confusing????
What do I do??
Thanks!!!




Hey Girly!

I'm sorry those girls at your school haven't been very nice. Boys can make us crazy! It's neither yours nor her fault that you both like the same guy. She definitely doesn't have any claim over him. You can keep talking to him (especially if he flashed you a smile!), but if he continues to give you mixed signals, forget about him. He's definitely not worth you fighting over.

Okay so I really like this guy that I show cattle with. At one of our shows we stay the night at the barn. My sister is a junior and she has a group af friends that she hangs out with all night, but I'm 13 so I'm a little young since they are all juniors and seniors in hight school. I kinda want to be in their group but my sister isn't going to really be with them this year because she's mad at them. I want to have my own group kinda but there are only 5 people that are around 13 or 14 or so and one of them is the guy I like. Any Advice? Thanks!!!




Hey Girl!

A sleepover at the barn? That sounds pretty cool. I would stay with people your own age, especially because that's the group your crush is in. Ask him if he's excited to spend the night. This is a great chance to get to know him better. Plan some fun activities for the event-bring some scary stories, a cool book, and whatever else you can think of. Have a blast!!

Um it has recently come to notice that i really like my frenemy. And i really don't know how to come to terms with it. And plus my friend already asked him out in fact am the one who encouraged her and he said no. not only am i afraid of rejection but also hurting my friend's feelings. help please.

Hey girl,

If you're afraid of hurting your friend's feelings, you should probably talk to her before you make a move. Is it really worth sacrificing a friendship for a chance with a guy? If you want to ask him out, rejection is a possibility, but so is a chance at something great! There's no rush, though, so if you're not sure how he feels, keep hanging out as friends and see how he acts around you.
