FriendWorried asks:   My friend has been dating her boyfriend for almost 4 weeks now. Recently she told me he asked her to have sex, She says she's not sure if she wants to or not. I want to give her some adivice but I don't know what to say. Please help me, help her!
hollistercutie4 says:   I would suggest reminding her that if she's not sure if she wants to or not, that she might not be ready. Help her by being there for her, helping her get birth control or health testing done (all should be considered prior to having sex, anyways) so on and so forth. Tell her that she should do it when she knows that she really wants to, and to not let someone pressure her into doing something she isn't sure about.

TORi asks:   This one is as old as the book. I have been dating this boy for two years. I love him. We've been together so long I can't see myself without him; however, I'm moving away in a year, and he can't go with me. And last night, I met a boy who I already have a little crush on. I'm not sure if I should break up with my boyfriend because I'm attracted to other guys (coupled with the fact that we've been fighting a lot lately) and am confused about our future together, or if I should stay with him.
wilddawg says:   Unless you try and commit to having a long distance relationship, you breaking up is probably a good idea. Can the arguments be mended or are the arguments about your upcoming move? Define and think about your attraction to other guys .............. Do you feel this way because you've been committed for 2 years and want to nibble at something new? Are you more attracted to guys like the new guy than you are to your b-f? If these are more than fantasies and have you consider dumping him, then you need to end it.

Honestly, you need to do some soul searching and look at the pros and cons of staying together, breaking up, or finding a new guy. But my deepest concern is you find a new guy who can't move near you then you may have ended something special too early.

If you do break up, I recommend thaT you take some time to get over this guy before you pursue something or someone new.

Lastly, it's best to follow your heart.

ckourtney asks:   okay will i like this who i have been best friends with foe like 5 years and we started daiting an dmy parents found out but the thing is he is black and i am white and i dont know what i should do my parents hate him ?
wilddawg says:   What makes you think they're disappointed? Are you asking me if they hate him? Or are you asking why they hate him?

There are so many thoughts racing through my head now:
*They could be disappointed because you weren't up front about dating him
*They could be racist and not like the fact you're in an interracial relationship
*They may not have liked him ever and since you're dating, it's easier for them to make it an issue
*Maybe you're too young to be dating
*If he's your first b-f --- maybe they expected someone different

Maybe you need to calmly ask them why they're upset.

Feel free to be more specific with the things I mentioned and I'll try to give you more enhanced advice.
