To make it worse I have feelings for some one else; I have been cheated on before by previous boyfriends, and now I feel as though I am doing the same to my boyfriend, even though I havn't done anything with the new boy that I like. What should I do? Reply to this Question Share |

If you have feelings for someone else, chances are they wont go away. Two and a half years is a long time to be going out and you owe it to him to break it off before anything worse happens.

Hey sweetness,
My mother always told me, "when you're in a relationship, your world should become BIGGER not smaller.", and it sound sliike to me... your world is shrinking in size, yes? Your friends and your family should be a priority right now! If the relationship you have with your boyfriend is past it's prime, it's past it's prime.
Way to resist temptation and not cheat on your boyfriend. Always the best decision (and you'll feel a lot better about yourself in the future). Maybe it's time to check out of the relationship you're in now... and like CD said, wait for a little while until you pursue things with the new guy. Give yourself just a little time to be alone, and also, your boyfriend some time to heal as well.
Good luck, sweetness!

You're being an absolute star by not giving into your feelings and cheating on your boyfriend. To be honest though, I think if you read your question again it will become apparent what you should do. Quote- i have been feeling that the relationship is dying. I now have feelings for someone else. You're not a bad person if you admit to yourself and him that your relationship isn't working anymore. The majority of relationships at 16 don't work out and becoming one of them makes you normal. If you're unhappy break up with him but maybe wait a while before you get it on with this new guy to be a bit sensitive ok?
