Question - (21 July 2008) 6 Answers - (Newest, 22 July 2008)
A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I am really confused as to what I should do. I have a boyfriend and we've been goin out for a couple of weeks but its becoming more and more difficult to stay faithful because there are many boys after me right now. By the way i'm 13 years old.

I went to the movies last night with my friend whose like my sister and her older sister. Her sisters boyfriend and his younger brother(14yrs) came along. we were watching the movie and everyone was having fun bcuz we were just hangin out eatin and stuff.

Me and My friend had already established earlier that his brother was really cute and then later on when the movies almost over i find out he likes me and his brother persuaded him to come sit next to me which was only a seat over. So we sat next to each other but we both acted really shy and in my mind I knew nothing was going to happen because I had a boyfriend.

My friend and I made up a thing where I would tap my nose and say my boyfriends name but that didn't work. After the movie we all hung out outside of the movie theatre and they stayed with us until my friends mother came to pick us up. When we left his older brother who is like a brother to me gave him my phone number and he started texting me.

As soon as we started talking and getting to know each other I became to like him even more. He's really sweet and he told me stuff like that i was beautiful and that my smile was beautiful.

What I need to know is how to go about this and in the even I do want to breakup with my boyfriend how to I break it to him easily because I have a feeling that he will be really sensitive about it.

Also, this boy has told me that he will wait if I want him to which I thought was very caring of him. I have considered that at my age relationships don't last really long and anything can happen in the matter of a day within one of these relationships so he might not have to wait so long afterall.

Xxx Please X Help xxX

Xxx Thanks. xxX

babewithbrains agony auntI know what you mean - but over here I know some poor kids who lost thier virginity aged 11-12!!!! It's really sick, and whats more- they don't care.

"Playing the Field" is a very adult term for having lots of friends and going out with lots of different boys while you find the one you want.

Works for some - not for others.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Thank you for giving me the advice. Many of you said that I'm too young for this or I should stay single as long as I can.. Well, none of you are from my country and I think that may have to do with differences between the countries. Over here there are girls my age getting pregnant actually & i'm most definetley not saying that i'm going to be like that but there are many people my age that do date..

Nevertheless, thank you all for your advice.

babewithbrains agony auntIf you're doubting, he's not really who you should be with - but mind you don't go through them at a rate of knots - you don't want to be labled as a slag. I'm 12 and I really fancy a boy but I said yes to another and it was quite irratating for all of us.

Johnnybbad agony auntI don't think playing the field is really the answer at your age. Neither is committing to a boy. You should really be concentrating on school and having fun with girlfriends of your own age. You are only young once and at the moment you are behaving more like a 23 year old than a 13 year old. Forget boys and relationships for a few years and have young fun while you can. You will have enough of these relationship headaches when you are older. Trust me. Good luck.

Yep you have to break up with your boyfriend.

Just tell him you are too young to be in a committed relationship and want to see other people.

You may hurt him but sometimes that has to be done.

Good Luck!! xx

you're absolutely right, the amount of people who have actually married the boy/girl they dated when they were 14 is a very very low amount! i'm alot older then yoiu but i remember when i was fourteen all i wanted was a boyfriend but i couldn't get myself one ! looking back now, i think it is an excellent idea to stay single for as long as possible and not get yourself into any serious relationships too young, a person your age isn't ready to go through a heavy break-up, so end it now so as to save everyone's feelings.then keep it casual with this new guy, he sounds like a decent boy
