We're a few years apart in age and not related related; since our parents are married, but had us before they got together. I really like him and he shows some interest but doesn't make a move. He and I talk and hang out but nothing really happens. Things have been implied but we've never done anything. I kinda want to get over him but at the same time I really like him. What should I do?

I can see his light on and want to walk in but I'm supposed to be asleep or in my room or w/e so it's not like I can do anything about it. I just keep thinking of what would happen if we were romantically involved and I can't get it out of my head. Right now, he's watching a movie and I want to join him so badly! I want him and stuff but I don't want to want to to be with him if I can't have him. I know it's foolish and stupid, but I just want 1 night or something....

These type of relationships never end well. Sure, you don't have any blood ties.... but how would your parents react? It would just cause too many problems that aren't worth it. Just make up your mind that he's off limits and move on.

reader, anonymous, writes (30 August 2010): I see how this can be confusing. Maybe you should think about a few things before deciding on whether or not to act on this:
How would your parents react to a possible relationship?
Would a relationship be able to work out(Does he live far away, ect.)?
And are the feelings you're having more than physical, and do you see yourselves staying together long-term?
If all of these answers are positive, then you should maybe talk to him about it. But if you really want to get over him, my suggestion is to make a pro-con list, and show yourself that it might not be the best choice.
But good luck, either way!
