About Hannah
Expertise
As a child growing up in an extremely open household, there were never any questions that couldn't be asked; nothing was "taboo". My family, especially my mother, made it extremely clear that everyone comes from all walks of life with different problems, concerns and situations, which all deserve the same amount of respect and consideration. So, I'm here to offer you the same help. To me, nothing is too crazy. I'll tell you what I think in the most honest of ways, and try to help you the best that I possibly can!

Experience
My life has been anything but perfect. Although this is specifically "teen dating issues", I pretty much can talk about it all. Relationships yes, but I've had experience in divorced parents, infidelity between parents, parents with alcoholism, school pressure, ect.

Organizations
OJCL (Ohio Junior Classical League), NJCL (National Junior Classical League), Latin club, volunteering with autistic/developmentally challenged children, and band.

Education/Credentials

Question
Hi. :]

I'll try to save you a lot of reading and jump to the point.
Im completely addicted to this boy at high school and he has a girlfriend.

Of course, you need at least a little bit of background on the situation so:

-We dated for a week and then he told me he wanted to date me but not right now... Because him and this other girls situation.

- He flirts and stares me A LOT.

- He still calls me and even told his girlfriend he'd call he back because he's on the phone with me.

I really like this guy.. but dont want to seem desperate or whore-like.
I also don't want to "Move on".
He's intriguing.

Any advice you can give me here?
:]

Thanks.

Answer
Hi Izzy,

First and foremost, although you may be addicted to this guy, there are a few things you need to realize realistically about this situation. He may be completely into you, but look at how he's treating his girlfriend. If you were his girlfriend, knowing what he did while he was pursuing you, would you want to think about that all the time? Secondly, if he's as attracted to you as you say and says he wants to be with you all the time, why hasn't he broken up with his girlfriend yet?

I'm sorry to be so blunt. But this situation seems rather shady to me. For the time being, I'd try to lay off it for awhile. I know that isn't too much advice, but this situation, if I were in it, would bother the hell out of me so much that I'd want to forget it.

Best of luck.

--Hannah
