i've kind of liked this guy from the first time i saw him. i've never spoken to him. i have him as a friend on facebook and i follow him on twitter so it kinda feels like i know him, i guess. but he doesn't know me. should i just start talking to him? idk.. ): — Anonymous

Yes. Who says girls can’t make the first move? Try. You might miss out on something that has potential if you stay quiet. Let me know how it goes!

I have a boyfriend but I like other guys is that not okay.:( — Anonymous

Well, to be honest, I had a boyfriend but still had intense feelings for my ex. It’s normal in that case. The difference is I didn’t act on them. That is never okay. If you have a boyfriend and you find yourself getting interested in new guys, then no, it’s not normal. When you have a real relationship that’s worth your time you will know. You will think about that person every minute of everyday. They will give you butterflies even when you just hear their name. They are that one person who can make your worst days turn into your best by simply smiling at you. You won’t consider anyone else. Don’t let that person go. 

In your opinion, what would be an "appropriate" age to lose your virginity? — Anonymous

This is strictly my opinion, but the high school years. That’s when you mature more and you know the consequences of your actions. Also that’s when we first feel legitamite love as we know it. 

So my boyfriend is not acting like a boyfriend what do I do. And I mean basic stuff. — Anonymous

You talk to him about it. That is the only way you will solve anything.

So I've been over my ex for quite a bit now (We dated for a long time). I am happy with my girlfriend now, and have minimum regrets with my relationships. But every now and then, something pops up and reminds me of her. Sometimes it's "whatever", other times it makes me so upset i almost want to tear up. I am extremely happy with my new girlfriend but don't know how to completely get over my ex... — Anonymous

Unfortunately, I have no real answer for this. Nobody does. All i can recommend is that you cherish every moment with your girlfriend. People aren’t just forgotten, she was a big part of your life. Just remember all the reasons why you two didn’t work out, and all the reasons you and your new girlfriend are working out.

I wanna go out with a guy that I would never even talk to — Anonymous

Well, there’s not much i can do about that. If you don’t talk to him, that will never happen.

My boyfriend cant keep a promise. I ask him to call me he says he will but never does, he rarely texts back either. What do I do? I don't want to seem like well..a bitch. — Anonymous

You shouldn’t fear being a bitch simply because you want a real relationship. That behavior isn’t want any girl wants or deserves. Talk to him about it, and honestly if he doesn’t change, don’t waste your time anymore. Relationships take two.

So my boyfriend of 7 months (i'm 18 he just turned 21, he's a city boy, I'm a country girl) has always wanted to go to the UK and live there. He just told me yesterday that he was going to go next year and he wants me to go with him. I'm in college right now I can't just go (he told me to study abroad, I don't have money for that).I don't have a problem going to the UK eventually (in 3 years when I'm done with school). I love him and I don't to hold him back from his dreams. What do I do? — Anonymous

You respect that he wants to go there, and you don’t. Love is a powerful thing, but it shouldn’t hold people back or force them to do things they don’t want to do. Honestly, I don’t see why he doesn’t just wait till you are ready. But maybe this just shows you that it wasn’t meant to be. Some people come into your life for a reason and they touch your heart, but they aren’t meant to stay there. I don’t know if you believe in that sort of thing but i certainly do. 

so, me and this guy have been on and off again for a while. i havent talked to him in 3 months but he texted me last night. im not sure where it is gonna go, but i still really like him. im not sure how he feels, hes very confusing but i have a gut feeling he does too, he always seems to come back to me. he hurt me in the past, but i cant seem to get over him. our familys love us together, but our friends... not so much. i dont know what to do... do i go with it? i dont know what to do — Anonymous

First of all, don’t let your friends or family alter your decision. If you want to try, then take a chance. If you let him go because you’re scared, you’ll always wonder what could’ve happened. So go for it. Give it your all. 

Is it normal to occasionally think of my ex? I'm dating this AMAZING guy, I'm absolutely in love with him, but at random times I think of my ex. We've been broken up since September. It just bothers me. I'm sure hes moved on, I have too, but sometimes he just crosses my mind. — Anonymous

That’s absolutely normal. Well, in my mind anyway. He was a big part of your life, and you don’t just forget those things. There’s a difference between simply thinking of him and acting upon it. Make sure that doesn’t happen. There’s a reason you broke up.
