Expertise
Life as a teen can be extremely difficult and everyone can understand where you are coming from. And although you may have the answer already in your mind, it's sometimes easier to hear it from someone else. I can answer anything from is he/she treating you right, is the right person for me, how to deal with break-ups and heartbreaks, and so forth. I can try my best to answer to your question as quick as possible. I can only try so hard to understand what you're saying so please, be clear about what you're trying to get across. As for length of letters, keep them BRIEF and to the point. Don't beat around the bush about what you're trying to ask, if you give me something short I can answer them with a better understanding of the issue.

Experience
I too am a teen and find that these are the hardest years to have a relationship and really learn from them. Sometimes, it can be extremely difficult to see through the feelings that we posses and instead, we make the wrong decisions.

Teen Dating Issues - I'm confused.....and sad


Expert: Becky - 10/22/2009

Question
Well a while back I asked u a question concerning my gf, or should I say my ex, because we were having some issues. Anyways I'm 17 and I just had my first girlfriend and for reasons that I have yet to understand I broke up with her, although it was more of a mutual break up I just was the one who brought it up. We just didn't seem to click too good. Now I'm starting to realize that it was basially my fault because I'd never had a girlfriend before but she has dated other people in the past and as pathetic as it sounds I was scarred out of my mind. We are still friends and now that I act noramlly again shes getting kind of clingy again. I kinda ignored it but all my friends and her friends are noticing. For example we danced together at homecoming and apparently we were getting pretty close and people were asking my friends if we were dating or something. Basically what I am asking is should I give it another shot because now that I think about it I still like her I just broke up with her for who knows why I guess I was scarred or running away from my problems like I often do. Is it worth a shot?

Answer
What you're feeling is breakup remorse. I don't think you really feel for her like you may think you do. But with every break up there's plenty of reasons behind it. For starters, you saw and felt that you two just didn't click together. What more do you need? You see that your ex is falling for you, again and for you to lead her on like that is really disrespectful and not well thought out. She needs her space from you so she can move on and find someone that she DOES click with, as do you.

You've answered your own question as to why you guys didn't work out. If you feel that you need to try it out again, that's something that you have to decide on.

Good luck
