  1. there is nothing you can say right now that will magically make everything better, get your stuff work on yourself and your life.
  2. If you didn't move with your mom, where would you live? with your dad? and the whole my friends treat me better than my blood bit is a little over the top. your blodd has provided you shelter, clothing, food, etc etc etc, I'd like to see any of your friends do that and still stay peachy keen to you and tell you whatever you want to hear.
  3. I lost my gd 2 years ago, it was very hard, my insides had felt like they'd been scraped out, and I cried like a baby, it will be hard, but it will get easier, and it help to remember how they are living now and that this is no quality of life for them. I am sorry for you, it will be a hard time, but it will pass
  4. and please please please get a life and some interests and activities outside of your boyfriend, that will really help your situation
  5. I think you need to let go of the drama a little bit yes you liked her a lot, yes she hurt your feelings badly, no you probably won't get back together, you are only 18, go out and have some fun. if your still in school then it's almost over- take a road trip- find YOURSELF, because obviously too much of your self worth is tied directly to the relationships you have, when you know yourself then your relationships will add to you but they won't define you
  6. oh and if you are feeling very nervous and feel like you're flubbing it, don't be afraid to tell her that, tell her, without getting into anything about your ex, that you haven't been on a date in a while, and you're nervous. Any guy who ever told me on a date that he was nervous immediately endeared himself to me. When sincere it shows that you do care what she thinks, even if you always appear confident.
  7. remember... ask open ended questions, questions that require more than a yes or now to answer, rather than "do you like this band" ask "what other bands do you like" or "what types of music do you listen to"
  8. I would not try to fix it right now, she is creating space from you right now because you came on too strong, approaching her and trying "to fix it" are just going to reinforce the idea to her that you want more from her than she is willing to give, leave her alone, that is all you can do, let her be the one to approach you (and she may never come back) that way when she does it is because she feels ok with it.
  9. yes how do you know this woman, how did you get the date? those answers could definitely dictate some things that are possible on the date
  10. This is wrong- there is no state where you can just leave without your parents consent. Do contact local authorities, then you will know which of the advice you have received is correct.
  11. you can not make someone fall for you, all you can do is put yourself out there and see if they are interested
  12. DN, I totally agree that there is a difference between your own kids and someone else's. He is not really sure that he ever does want to have kids, his comment was that he didn't really like that option being closed off to him. Which I can understand. Right now we don't even live together and haven't really talked about marriage, but this is one issue that should be dealt with early. We did talk some more today, and we decided that we are going to get past humps that each of us are working on (me-custody battle; him- starting new business) because we are supportive and good to each other, then we will see where we're at. Thanks for the advice so far.
  13. I am a woman, and I think your girlfriend is milking this for all it's worth. Talk to her about it
  14. if you want to stay with him he will have to make a choice, as long as you are not doing it just to be controlling you are perfectly right to ask him to limit his contact with her to only the times it is unavoidable.
  15. I am a divorced mother of two, 9 year old boy and 3 year old girl, I have been dating a wonderful man for about 10 months and he is great, I honestly have no complaints about the relationship. After about 4 months of dating we had the "dealbreaker discussion", we went over major issues and found out where each other stood on these issues and if our opinions were something we could each live with in the long term. One issue, I had a tubal ligation after my last child, I only ever wanted two children, he asked if I would ever be willing to have the operation reversed, I had said yes, if I were with the right person and we really wanted to have a child together I would. At that moment I was very sincere with what I had told him. Now, after much thinking about my life, where I want it to go, my two children etc. I realized that it will be very unlikely for me to want to have another child. I told him right away. His response was that he kind of understood and he would have to think about that. Then later I mentioned our earlier conversation and he said he would take his time thinking about it, we already had a lot invested in this relationship so if we broke up now or in two or three months it would still hurt. I am scared to lose him, he is what I have always been looking for, but I also want my life to move forward as far as children are concerned. Any input on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Should I not bring it up any more? Should I prepare to be dumped? Has anyone overcome this fork in the road before and had the relationship last?
  16. He is acting this way because he is probably confused about if the breakup was the right thing, I would not encourage the close "boyfriend/girlfriend" type behaviors if you don't want to get back with him, remain friends but keep the intimacy out of it. If you do want to get back together take it very very very slow, unless you want to feel what you felt last month in about 3 or 4 months
  17. I have got to weigh in on the original posters side on this one, he did not use her, he laid out the parameters he wanted in a relationship, she agreed, he is not at fault for her agreeing and hoping things would change down the road (and btw OP, women do that a lot!) I had a wonderful fling right after my divorce, we were both on the same page, agreed to the rules, and were respectful. and we both left it happy and happy we had known each other- she didn't play by the rules and got her feelings hurt because of it.
  18. then what good is the friendship, tell her you are sorry, you went a little too far and you think she great but you want to keep it where it is now, if she goes or stays will be up to her
  19. just give her space and understand that she will not be ready for any type of exclusivity for quite some time, she's in date mode not mate mode
  20. you knew she wanted more than that, you used that to your advantage because you were feeling frisky, but as soon as something better came along you dropped your friend. I don't know if you can keep her as a friend, if you were my friend and toyed with me that way I wouldn't stick around, you should start with an apology
  21. you were mean to this girl, you should start with an apology
  22. legal age to move out without parental consent is. while the other answers are nice, the right answer to this question is 18 or whenyou get yourself emancipated by a judge by proving you (you alone) can provide for all of your needs, food, shelter, clothing, school etc.
