He still has feelings for his ex
Monica, 16, from Arkansas, asks:
I am dating this guy and I really Really REALLY like him but he told me straight up that he still has feelings for his ex-girlfriend but she is dating someone else and he says that his feelings for her MIGHT go away. What should I do?? PLZ HELP!!!!!
VictorM's advice:
You should do two things: one, thank your lucky stars that you found a guy who is honest -- you have no idea how lucky you are; two, continue to really, really like him and be the best girlfriend you can be.
It is very normal for him to feel this way about his ex. If nothing else, it shows he's capable of forming an emotional attachment to a girl -- that's good. At your age, getting over an ex happens often and very quickly. So, don't give him a hard time about his feelings for her. Be fun, pleasant, understanding, etc. -- it will be the best remedy to erase her from his life.
