Ask me questions now, I am ready and waiting!!! Here are the responses to the questions I was asked in early December...

Recently, Amber ((age) under 18 (visit) weekly) asked a question. She asked:
I recently met a guy at a party-he was so nice and seemed to like me a lot, but when i saw him the next weekend he was so shy, then his friend asked him what he thought about me, and he said "i don't know" What have i done wrong? Please help me

Emilie's answer:
It doesn't sound to me like you have necessarily done something "wrong". A lot of the time a guy can seem to be nice one time and shy the next, and perhaps it's just because he likes you a lot and doesn't know how to show it! In fact, if he's telling his friend "I don't know" in answer to how he feels about you, he may be trying to say that he's too embarrassed to disclose his true feelings to a third party (the friend). Of course, he could also be saying that you're cool but he doesn't know if he likes you as more than a friend, which is most likely what he determined the friend to be asking. The best way to find out how he really feels is to ask him to do something with you sometime. If he says "I'm busy!" right away before you even tell him when you wanted to get together, you know he's not interested. If he tells you he's busy once he knows what time it is, ask him if there's a time that's better for him. If he says he doesn't know then, back off and wait for him to come to you. If he doesn't come, he's really not interested. But if you are able to get him to commit to a time, he is at least interested in being your friend! And that's a great place to start.
Good luck!

Recently, Heather ((age) under 18 (visit) weekly) asked a question. She asked:
My boyfriend for two years dumped me this morning and I can't seem to cope.
He said that things weren't working out, but that wasn't good enough for me. I love him still, and I have got to get him back. Thank you

Love,
Unloved

Emilie's answer:
I guess this would really depend on why he dumped you, and since I am not in his head I can only guess it is for one of two reasons, one of which holds the possibility that you can have him back, and the other totally precludes that.
My guess is that he either is just being dramatic and is hoping you will come crawling back and beg him to get back together with you (which is not a very kind way to treat you) or that he has found someone else who he would rather be with.
If he is being dramatic and wants you to beg him to take him back, the best way to find out is to just talk to him. In fact, either way it's a good idea to talk to him to find out some more. Say to him that you are feeling unresolved about the whole situation, you don't really understand why he broke up with you, and you would like to take some time to talk to him in a way he doesn't feel threatened, in public if necessary (at a playground or such. Don't pick a quiet intimate restaurant, that has the potential for lots of embarrassment on both your parts). If you discover that he seems willing to get back together with you because there are problems that are solveable, go for it.
If on the other hand, you find out he's after another woman, drop him like a hot potato. You don't want to be like the girls on Jerry Springer who are kicking each other and pulling out each other's hair for a man. He's not worth it, and you're better than that. It's painful, but move on.
Good luck...
