I do love him, really I do but I just not so much get embaressed but I don't know what it is, I just find it hard, what do I do?HELP!Also I have loads of male friends as I DON'T tend to get on with girls my age. I have been brought up mostly around boys and find I can be more myself around them but there are two main boys I am with every day but since I moved to live with my dad we keep in contact by visiting each other 1 a week or text or phone call and he doesn't like it and gets mad. I ask him why he says he doesn't like me talking to other boys. What can I do? I don't want to lose either of them, friends or boyfriend.What can I do?

He's just jealous, and you have to think of it as a bit of a compliment more than a problem, as long as you assure him nothing is going on and he needs to trust you - and if you stopped being friends with them you'd be unhappy- then everything should be okay.
A good way of doing this would be telling him you love him. I know exactly how you feel about being scared to say it...even when you mean it. It just seems a strange thing to come out with for the first time, but once you have said it once it will be fine. Why not do something really stupid like give him a plate of alphabetti spaghetti saying I LOVE YOU, or write it on a piece of paper and give it to him. As long as you don't say it over text or email when you aren't together I think that would be nice.
But that may just sound horribly soppy to you. xxx
