GUYS | DEAR CAROL

'Fess Up: Are you too picky when it comes to guys?


 
My relationships never last long. I’ve never been dumped—I always dump my BFs. Two weeks is the longest I’ve had a boyfriend. I’m too picky and expect a guy to be perfect. If he ignores me when he’s hanging with his friends, I usually break up with him. Is that bad? Should I give a guy more chances?


Dear Picky,

Not every relationship is supposed to go the distance. But you’re asking for trouble if you expect perfection or want a guy to pay attention to you every second. Give him breathing room. A boyfriend should not act as if you’re invisible, but it’s healthy for him to hang with his friends and for you to spend time with yours. You could also tell him how you feel rather than dumping him. Is it possible you’re the one who needs some space? Consider taking a vacation from the whole boyfriend thing, even a short one, while you figure out what you’re looking for. Going with someone can be fun, but not when you’re changing BFs as often as you’re changing socks.

Hey girl,

Eek, this is one of the dangers of being so involved in a group of friends - being close friends, having crushes on them, etc. can get sticky because they all talk and they're all watching each other's moves. The best thing to do is just be honest here. Speak one-on-one with each of them - first, the guy you kissed. Tell him the honest truth, that you got caught up in the moment and you think he is an amazing friend, but you would be better staying friends than anything else. Apologize and ask him if he can put it behind him so you can be friends again. Next with your BGF, tell him you appreciate him getting involved and looking out for his friends, but you don't like his friend "like that" so you really don't want your BGF pushing him toward you, making him think he has a shot. Be frank with him and ask him if he could stop encouraging him so he doesn't get even more hurt. Lastly, the guy you really like - the obvious thing to do might make you a little nervous, but here it is: tell him yes, the kiss did happen. You aren't proud of it, but you're not going to deny it. But then tell him you see that guy as a friend - a great friend, but just a friend. And here is your moment - tell him how you really feel about him. Tell him you know he has a GF, but that's how you feel. If he loves his GF, then he doesn't get the right to be upset about the choices YOU make in your love life. But if he really cares about you and wants to make something of it - then his opinion really matters. I think this is an opportunity for you to lay those options out on the table for him and see how it goes <3

I really like my step-brother's best friend. My brother is only five months older than me (we're both 14), but half of the time he reffers to me as his "little sister". His best friend is only a month older than me, but I'm afraid he won't like me back because I'm Danny's little sister. I'm not a very shy person, and sometimes I'll hang out with the both of them (like when they had a sleepover, they needed someone to help them with prank calls, and then after that we all watched the X-Games). But I just really don't know how to get out of the "Little Sister Zone"! Help?!?! Thanks!

 

Hey girl!  As long as you're hanging out with them, he probably sees you as a friend, too!  He may be hesitant to date you because he's friends with your step-brother, but if you really want to go for it, tell him! xoxo

Ok soo wen I waz hangin out wid my bff nd her bf my ex all those emotions I tried soo hard to get rid of came back with one laugh and he said he'd brake up wid her for me but I don't wanna hurt her we've been friends since kindergarden

 

Hey girl!  No boy is worth ditching your bestie!  Don't tell her about what he said and try not to spend time with him, this boy sounds like bad news for you!  Look for a new guy who makes you feel just as good as this one without all of the BFF drama. Good luck! xoxo

ok so my bf and i broke up 2 weeks ago and im really sad and miss him like crazy! what should i do, ive been trying to get over him but its really hard. any help?







Hey girl!  That really hurts, I'm sure.  Breakups are tough but I promise it will get better.  The best thing to do in this situation is to distract yourself,  constantly obsessing over your ex will only make you miss him more.  Make sure to hang out with friends and family that will support you if you want to talk about it, but also make you have some fun!  Good luck! xxoo
