A female United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

So I just got back from a vacation and I don't know what my next move should be. I'm going to try and keep this short but this is all the relevant information.

I met this guy the second day I was there (I was there for a week). He was really nice to me and looked out for me when I was being bothered by someone and when a friend of mine randomly abandoned me one night for a guy and I had nobody to hang out with. On the last night my friend told him that I was interested in him and by the end of the night he had kissed me, the only problem is when he walked me to my room he said "It was nice meeting you". We are now friends on facebook but that is all. He is 17 and I am 15, (though he really is a year and a half older than me). Honestly, he isn't that attractive, very geeky and has acne, but he has an amazing personality. I don't want to sound conceited, but I know I'm not ugly. I've had several guys after me the past year, all older than me and all of my friends were surprised to see I was attracted to the guy I met on vacation but I don't care.

He lives an hour and a half away from me. I don't know if its just a pipe dream or what, maybe I'm crazy, but I like him, a lot. I wish we could figure something out. He was soo sweet to me and lately with the guys I've been around its so nice to find one that isn't a total jerk. Should I just let him go? Should I try to talk to him? The thing is I don't want to be that obnoxious girl he met who won't leave him alone. I feel like a child compared to him for some reason.

Its been a while since I've genuinely liked someone. Maybe that's why I'm upset that it most likely won't happen. So do I just forget about him? or speak to him?

thank you! (I am the person that asked this question but i can't figure out to make dearcupid confirm that i am) I've contacted him, so i guess ill wait to see if he tries to talk to me at some point, I've decided to let it go a bit and if he wants to make an effort to speak to me its worth it, if not he's not worth my time. Thank you SO MUCH for the advice :D

Rebeccaa agony auntHi i think you should deffinitley try and contact, if you have him on facebook maybe send him a message, saying hi, you could ask him how his journey back home was. If he doesnt seen intterested then you should leave it and find somone else in time, however if he does than you can take things from their.

I hope this helped abit good luck xx

Well seeing as you're only 15, I don't think you should even bother. You're going to meet a lot of guys in your life who will impress you.

My best advice to you, having been 15 and completely understanding how you feel at that age, would be to keep in touch with him for now. Be patient, and maybe if you still know each other a few years from now when you are more mature, you can try to make something happen and go on a date.

Believe me, you DON NOT need to be in a long-distance relationship at your age. It's way too stressful and you should be focusing on school, friends and having fun in your high school years before it's over. I've been in two long-distance relationships and they are so difficult.

I know you want to have a boyfriend to love to death, but I really must tell you that you are just too young. I thought I was ready for commitment when I was in high school too, but I wasn't, and my boyfriend at the time wasn't either. You need to allow yourself to grow, and you need to find out who you are and what you want first, before you jump into something serious.

Date around, have fun, meet lot's of different kinds of guys. Figure out what you need and want first. Then you can worry about getting into long-distance relationships.
