ORLY

Well, I confronted her about it. I went over the same kinda things caro33 pointed out. She told me she feels guilty and that she's been ignoring me lately and I said that it was okay, just that I felt lonely without her. And we talked about how we could describe our relationship as 'going out' and decided that would make sense. But then she also told me she doesn't want to see me for a couple weeks because she feels anti-social lately. She said it's nothing personal and she still likes me. I really don't know what to think about this at all. On one side, I guess we're boyfriend/girlfriend now... But why would she want to be away from me for a couple of weeks? I mean, there's only a few months left before she has to leave for college so I really feel terrible I told her I would always be there for her and that she should tell me when she's feeling better about things. Any advice at all?

That's a really good suggestion, I might just go with that. We've been really close friends like this for about 2 and a half months and her sister was the one that brought up this whole status thing with me. I just feel like I should have said something a lot sooner Well yeah, she can't stand the group of people because they're secretive and childish. She doesn't seem like the kind of person that would let it affect her too much.

Hiya I'm in a very similar situation- except she's a senior and I'm a junior. My suggestion to you is that you and her talk about it some time! I mean, even if one is going to a college far away you can always write to eachother and keep in touch and that's probably the best you could do for her if you can't go where she is going. And maybe you two could visit eachother during holiday breaks or something! Make the best out of the situation, be her friend when she's away if nothing more

Hello friends, I guess I'm new here- I came for some advice because I honestly have no idea what I'm doing or what I should do. I've met a wonderful girl. We've gone ice skating, seen movies, been alone with eachother, held hands, but... We've only kissed once (this actually happened last saturday ) I'm really shy and nervous when it comes to kissing, and I'm definitely going to kiss her the next chance that seems right because I've missed so many good chances to do it. The problem is... I guess our relationship isn't "official". I mean, both of us are super happy with where we are with eachother, but other people think we're single... and that's been leading to problems for both of us. There's actually a group of people that dissaprove of her being with me because I'm kind of a 'loner' and they think she deserves better and they make me feel pathetic in front of her every chance they get They say that I don't show enough affection for her, and I'm starting to think they're right and maybe I need to try harder, even though the only thing lacking is the whole kissing thing... which is really getting to me. I just don't know how to make it "official", or "going out", or whatever that might be. Do I just ask her, "Hey, are we official?" Or what? I've never been in a relationship before. I have no idea what I'm doing or if I'm doing it right. We've planned a day next week where we'll be alone to talk and stuff at a lake near by (probably when I will end up kissing her, too), and I don't know if bringing this up would be awkward. It just feels so right and I really want to be with her, I really like her so much and I'm just looking for some help because I don't know what I should be doing or asking Thanks
