writes: Dear Cupid,Last summer was the summer before my freshman year. A boy that I had gone to school with in middle school and I started texting and talking on the phone all the time. I liked him a lot, and he told me he liked me. However, at that time, we thought we were going to different high schools. He ended it, and that was that.Halfway through the summer, I moved, and now we attend the same high school. We were in the same group at freshman orientation, and it was super awkward. That night, he texted me and told me he still wanted to be friends. Flash forward, and we're amazing friends. Best friends even. We tell each other anything and everything, but I have another boyfriend. He's pining after a cheerleader who will never like him, and he thinks that he's in love with her. He talks about killing himself, and I don't know what to do. But the other day, my boyfriend broke up with me. I was crushed, and I called him immediately. He comforted me of course, but the next day he called me and told me he was sorry for breaking up for me in the summer and that he still liked me a lot.Should I believe him? How can he get over this girl he was supposedly in love with so quickly? And how can I make sure a relationship won't ruin our friendship?

The best relationships start out as being best friends so that's a very good start. You are both young and have a long way to go. Being so young it takes time to realize feelings and they can mess your mind up and confuse you. You both seem to get on very well otherwise so take things slowly and see what happens. He sounds honest with you.
