Teen Dating Tips

Dear Dish-It, is here to whisper "ttyl after I've thought about this some more".


Dear Dish-It,

Hi there. I love this website. Well anyways, this boy I have liked for a while just asked me to go with him and of course I said yes. But unfortunately, I don't know how to be a girlfriend or act like one. Can you please help me out? Tell me or give me some tips on how to act like a girlfriend.

Dear desperate GF,

The first rule for acting like a real girlfriend is to act like yourself. This boy you've been crushing on for all this time likes you because of who you are - not how you will act as his girlfriend. There are no real tips or rules to follow when you are dating someone. You just have to kind of go with the flow and most importantly, have fun. You shouldn't be stressed out about what to say or do around your BF - you should just try to be comfortable around him. If you're a bit nervous, that's normal. But if you totally clam up every time he's around and would prefer to be hiding under a rock than hanging out with him, then you might wanna re-think the whole dating thing until you're really ready for it. Good Luck!


So, ya gotta burnin' question? Need some love directions? Thinkin' 'bout stuff like depression, sex,how ya feel 'bout YOURSELF (that's called "self-esteem"), boyfriends, girlfriends, losin' old friends, bullyin' or peer pressure, but too scared to ask the parents? Don't be scared to .

    Your friend who's not good @ english, you can probably teach/tutor her more. Like, teach her to say the most common words people say these days. And your other friend who speaks english but thinks that y'all are talking about her, if you have already explained it to her once, try telling her how you feel....that she shouldnt think that y'all are talking about her...b/c thats not what friends do. #bff Hoped that helped ! :)

If you're gonna say "whatever I am" and not listen to what we say to help you, then don't make a thread about it. Okay? I agree. People will misunderstand her as being "attention seeker".  Thanks. (; and I agree with you. I really hate it when people give up their time just to help someone and they don't listen. It irritates me. u awesome at advice
