A:My advice to you is to work on just being friends with this girl. You both have an entire life ahead of you. Neither one of you are ready to engage in a serious relationship. You and she will continue to meet other people and chances are that you both will be attracted to them at some point. Relationships take a lot of work and commitment. You've just begun to live your life. Do you have any aspirations as to what you want to accomplish in your life? Are you going to college? Do you have a steady job? All of these things will help you see what the world is all about, and until you really get 'out there', you are like a bump on a log without a clue as to what your life can become. You need to experience a lot more before you tie yourself down to one person. And if that person does things that make you feel like she doesn't care about you, then she's not ready to make a commitment to you either. Get out and find good people. There's no law that says you have to be unhappy in anything you do. Learn to love yourself enough so you don't
need someone else to be happy. Where you are now is but a small blip on the big screen of life. It's hard to realize that being as young as you are. You should be out there having fun, dating several girls just as good friends, and not looking for just one person to settle down with. Time and circumstances change everything and what we think we want when we're 20 is not what we want when we're 30 or 40, or even 50.
