I searched this and found nothing, so here gos:

This has been done in the "Got a Girlfriend/Boyfriend" thread, and I think it needs a thread of its own.

There has been too many moments in my life where I was having "love problems" and had no one to turn to. My friends gave me dumb advice, and I didn't even want to try my parents. Well, I'm putting a stop to this. Basically, what you do, is you post your problem here and other people will post their suggestions. See? All the fun of dating help newspaper columns with half the chance of embarresment!

Well, to start, I have many a problem. The biggest, though, is I'm just afraid no one likes me, and I've also liked the same girl for 3 years and can't move on.

*sigh*

What makes you think no one likes you? Do they throw rocks at you behind your back? Or make fun of you in front of other lady types? If not, then you might want to reevaluate that whole "nobody likes me" thinking.

Have you actually tried talking to the girl? Being friendly toward her? That might be a good start.

_________________

Yeah, you need to start it. Become friends with the girl you like, if you haven't already.

Also, I rememebr you saying somewhere that you're 13. Don't worry about dating yet. Any 13 year old who's "going out" with someone doesn't know half of what a relationship is. Don't sweat it, at least for a couple more years.

By the way, this is pretty much the same thing as the "Got a Girlfriend/Boyfriend" thread. That thread's grown into more than it started as. This should probably be merged into there.

so either keep it like it is, or change the name of the other one, I guess.




Eh, ill try and help here though.... Just what you need...advice from a single person that last went out with a girl when he was about 10

I'm saying it doesn't need a thread of its own, the Gf/Bf thread is the same thing as this thread, except the other is more broad. it's like the pet peeves thread, it's evolved into a somewhat different topic.

Yeah about the way you say reevaluateYou gotta put a dash in there, something
sorry I'm part editor freak
as for your problem, i don't know what to tell you but just always keep an indivuality. Don't be enslaved

I don't know about anyone else, but I could never really do the whole dating scene. For me, to want to get involved in an intimate relationship with someone, I have to be good friends with them first...the strong friendship has to already be established and present before it can be taken any further with me. I never really interally grasped how someone could claim that they love someone enough to form such a steady relationship with them as a boyfriend or girlfriend.

Yeah wait 'till High School [lie]everyone gets a girlfriend[/lie] No, seriously, when you have a car and stuff it'll be way cooler and easier to get a girlfriend. 13 is a time to make friends.

The word love is so overused nowadays, I (and probably you, too) dont know what true love is.
I think I might be...but like I said, I dont know...See, I "like" this girl so much, but not like anyone else (yeah...I know, overused) see, her liking me isnt a problem anymore. Now im all for her happieness. I used to like her as in the way I would try and get her to like me, etc....but now im set on just improving her life... I encourage her to go out with other guys, if she really likes them and I think that they would be a good match for her....So I guess I wont know, at least for a while

_________________

Oh yeah, it is incredibly over used. I can't sign on to MSN without seeing at least one "OMG <3 U GABBY" or something. But this is different. I think that I do, truly love her. So I might be wrong, and later I can laugh at my stupidity, but I feel as if I want to spend the rest of my life with her. So, if that's not love, I don't know what is.

okay, as for everybody here, as in "People under the age of the Smoking limit", You all dont know what love is. Neither do i, so dont start saying that you "Love" someone, all relationships in middle school and high school are just 'Wild Flings', so dont expect much to come from it, and try to get the most out of it.

_________________

Shut up Cola. Just shut up. For one, you have no idea how I feel for Helen, and you saying that I have no idea what love is is somewhat condesending.

thats what everybody says in Middle and high school dude, dont spend time concentrating on love, theese are your party years, live it up!

also, i wasnt talking to Just you, i was talking to everybody.

Still Cola, I have a girlfriend, and you make me feel like all of our love will amount to nothing.
I mean sure, it's likely that it won't.
But. Who says it's not fun to take some chances. I mean. My brother and his girlfriend have been dating since middle school, and they're about to get married.
Some good things do come out of middle school relationships, and if you keep on telling people they are pointless, someone might start to believe that, and miss out on a real good catch.

Sorry. Just my two cents.

Seriously guys...
Isn't this thread meant to be Help? Not hindrance...

But... I LOVE ARGUMENTS! SO HERE GOES!

I hate 13/14 years olds who think they are in love... As someone said, it's "like" not love, love is an overused word.

I have this friend right, (well, not any more, since this incident) who thinks she is in love. She is not. It is liking a boy, not loving and because she doesn't KNOW what love is, she thinks it's love, but it ain't.

And also, I know JD & Helen, they are in my core class at school. It IS love. They are best friends, they are eachothers rock, they don't go on with the "OMFGZZZZZZ I LIK TOALY (L) HELEN LOLOLOL" crap. This is real. Just believe him, he knows what he's on about.

I love my girl. She loves me.
I'm happy.
But. Yeah. I will be consulting this topic when I need it.
And I will.

Well, the good thing is, I have tons of friends that are girls. But, I'd really now like to stop dating, maybe until 8th grade. (I'm in 7th and I'm 13.)

None of us can say what you feel. Love isn't a universal emotion, it is different for different people. No one really knows the crossover from "like" to "love", you just have to find it. And then, you may have found something else. Think of how many divorces there are, they obviously weren't in love. I can't tll you what your feeling for Helen is, I don't even think you can.

It's really an odd emotion. There's no defenition for it. I'm 13, and I know that I don't know what love is, but then what is it? And what is this that I feel? Maybe, someday, I'll find out what love really is. Or maybe I already know.

I know what love is. Love is a natural desire installed in us by Nature to encourage us to reproduce so our species lasts. Sorry to bring your touching discussion to an end, but that's what it is.

_________________

That's not love...
Animals don't "love" and they still perpetuate their species.
Love is more than that.

_________________
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

Love is far more than just a means to reproduce...though I disagree with saying that animals are incapable of feeling love. Anyone who has had a strong bond with a pet can tell you that.

Anyways...what about loving your friends? Sure, it's not romantic love, but it is still a form of love--a deep friendship where you'd do anything for that person, even though you and that other person have no romantic or sexual feelings for one another. And if anyone tries to say that such feelings are bogus or that it doesn't really happen, then they're just truly missing out on perhaps the single greatest reason to be alive.

I, uh, kinda agree. I'm all for love for your family, but relationship kinda love isn't for me.

Okay, is this a thread for whether or not you know what love is, or for dating help? Toast. Paint.

If you like this girl a lot, duecex2, you really ought to just talk to her about it. What's the worst that can happen? She won't feel the same, and maybe that'll finally let you get over it and move on. As for the being afraid that no one likes you, I'm going to reiterate what a lot of other people have said, and try to get you to believe that having a girlfriend is so NOT the most important thing you have ot be worrying about at age 13 or so. Really. Sooner or later you'll see that us gals ain't nothing but trouble anyhow.
But seriously, it's not something I think you should be spending too much time thinking about. Be a kid and have fun doing it, because when you're an old fogey like me you'll really miss the lack of responsibility.
