A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend tells me that he likes me but not as much as I like him. I want to know how I can go about that because I am only 16 but I tend to express my thoughts and feelings a lot. It just comes with my personality. My boyfriend always mean what he says otherwise he would not say it. It may be that I show more interest in him but I want a guy who likes me or want me just as much. So then I do not feel like I am the only one liking in the realationship. He is generous and caring so I do not want to give him up so easily. I want to know if he really like me less than I like him.

Another_Kapiti agony auntI wouldn't take this as a bad thing necessarily. We all are in different degrees of 'like and 'love' and this doesn't mean we don't want to be together, just that we're moving at different speeds. If you love him and he loves you, that's all you need to know right now, you don't need a measuring stick to know how much one person loves the other. Remember that females develop in maturity faster than guys of the same age, so that's probably what it is.

As you say, you're only 16, and (I'm not sure how old he is, similar age?) and this (your relationship) will probably improve with time. How long have you been going out?
