Dear Panel,

My boyfriend is 5 years older than me. He is 20 and I am 15.

My parents don't likes this. Do you think this is wrong?

There's nothing wrong with dating older guys, but that is a
big difference. You two are in two different places in your life!

Pick on someone your own age.

Sometimes parents actually DO know best.

Dear Panel,

Hi, I was wondering if you think it's a bad idea that a 15 year old with a child and is on her own is too young to be dating a 35 year old that acts like he is 21?

- In Love

Female, age 15, Western Hemisphere

Yes. She's a troubled child who needs a mom and a dad, not yet another opportunity to screw her life up some more.

Yes, no matter how old the 35 year old ACTS, he's
still 35 years old. He's old enough to be your father!!!!

Duh.

Dear Panel,

I am a 21 year old college Junior. I'm a Theatre major. I make strong emotional bonds with people quickly. I hate to hurt people.

The main person in my life is Tracy. She is an 18 year old college freshman in a town more than two hours away. She was a virgin before we met. She is quiet and shy, and very loving.

Tracy and I had been dating for almost two and a half years. We were only in the relationship a month before I went away to school. We lasted all this while, most of our time spent in different cities. I've noticed our relationship getting rocky these last few months. It seems like we're on different paths, and it's getting hard to relate. We have fabulous sex.

Then I met Leah. She is a 19 year old college sophomore attending the same university as me. She is a complete opposite to Tracy. She is wild and free and very sexual.

Leah was a girlfriend of a good friend of mine. We got to be very close. Leah's relationship with her boyfriend was rocky at the same time mine and Tracy's was. We confided in each other.

I had noticed my attraction to Leah progressing for a few months. We eventually hooked up one night. We've had sex several times since then.

Tracy and I have broken up. I miss her, and I'm debating going back to her. Leah and her man have broken up. She asked him to take her back. He refused. She still loves him; I still love Tracy.

We have shared that we have feelings for each other. What should I do next?

Sounds like you are getting a taste of your own medicine. You put yourself into this mess, there's no way out but to get on your hands and knees and beg- you've got a lot to apologize for.

Go for it!!

Both you and Leah share the same diary. It will save time writing.

Dear Panel,

Why do guys not like shy girls? or is it me?

Ever since I moved nobody has asked me out or even talked to me in a way that would say to me that they like me.

- Confused

Female, age 15, USA

If you're shy, they don't see what a wonderful person you are! Open up!!

How long ago did you move? More than 15 years and yeah, it probably is you. I can't talk though... took me 16 years.

Dear Panel,

When you see a girl in the mall, at school, or wherever, do you just approach her without even having a clue who or what kind of person she is?

I just moved to a new town and I don't know anyone so a friend introducing to a girl is out of the question.

What do you think a good way for me to meet girls?

- Cake Roll

Would you like us to fix you up with the girl that wrote the previous question? You're both in similar situations, and you both live in USA.

If you were on a singles cruise ship for (2) weeks, and your purpose was to find a mate, what activities would you want on board daily and nightly?

Dancing, bridge, and undercover body surfing. Not necessarily in that order.

I'm not an expert, so I'd advise you to watch many re-runs of The Love Boat.

Dear Panel,

I liked this guy I was talking to on the phone, but recently he told me that he wanted more. So I told him that I didn't and that I just liked talking to him on the phone.

Then an old flame of mine told me that he was still not over me and that he wanted to hook up, so I decided to go out with him, when he found out that I was still talking to the guy on the phone (which is also his friend) he got mad that I would talk to him.

Should I be mad about about him being overprotective,or should I be glad that he cares?

I think you should be glad you're 15 and still have time to figure out all this relationship stuff.

Dear Panel,

My girlfriend and I have been dating for about a year. She is the same size and weight (within 5 pounds) that she was when I first met and her, she looks great.

She has made comments that she doesn't think the relationship is going to work out and in fights breaks up with me. But we get back together.

Since our last big fight, she has started exercising and said that she wants to loose weight.

Is this a sign that she is getting herself physically ready to be single again?

- Brian

Male, age 28, California

Don't you think that her comments and fights are sign enough?

Oh, please. She wants to lose weight to feel better about herself.

She's doing it now because she wants to be in control over something, since she's feeling not in control in your relationship.

If you're going to look for signs, read the obvious ones first.

Dear Panel,

Well I just went out with this guy for 3 days and he said things that made me feel different and happy. He was so sweet and caring. On my first date with him he said "I LOVE YOU".

Two days later I heard that he was about to go out with this girl 2 days before we met, and that made me think, "Does he still like her?"

Is he using me as a rebound?

I called him about 5 times and no one picked up the phone.

Is he trying to avoid me?

- Heart Broken

Female, age 21, USA

Like the freaking plague.

This guy is like a fruit fly. If he can fall in love with you after 1 date, then he's probably lived the rest of his life by now and is not answering the phone because he's passed away.

Dear Panel,

I am an 18 year-old college freshman. I have been in one serious relationship which lasted for three years, that ended six months ago.

Matt is a 27 year-old senior in college who is graduating in Spring. He got out of a relationship with a girl I went to high school with, nine months ago.

I met Matt through a mutual friend a year ago. We didn't really start to hang out with each other until about three months ago when I told him that I liked him and that I was potentially interested in having a relationship with him. Since then he has taken some steps to maybe giving me hints. He calls my house, he asks me out to dinner and we hang out more often.

However, he is always complaining that he doesn't have a girlfriend and that local girls here are: "all stupid." He puts people down in order for him to feel a bit superior to others and mentions his ex-girlfriend a lot. It makes me wonder if I am only his friend or potentially his girlfriend.

Is he just playing games with my heart or is he trying to pursue a relationship?

- Kalle

Female, age 18, USA

Who cares? Why don't you be "stupid" enough to find someone else.

He's probably playing with your emotions. I know the type. Has you around for his own ego.

Get rid of him.
