Dear Dish-It, I Should Give Up Looking for the One
Dear Dish-It, is here to whisper "ttyl after I've thought about this some more".
Dear Dish-It,
My boyfriend and I were going out for a very long time and then he broke up with me. He never said why, but I'll never forget that day. Just because someone else liked him... he broke my heart. I cried and cried for a long time, and I didn't go to school the next day. Why? So I wouldn't have to deal with it anymore. I still cry about it. My friends tell me to let it go, but I don't think I can. I thought he was the one for me, but I guess not. I should just give up looking for the one. Maybe it might work out next time with me and him hopefully. What should I do?

Dear Brit,
You're sad and you're hurt and that's totally understandable. But girl, how old are you? By the way you're talkin', it sounds like you're 29 pushing 30! Stop talkin' nonsense. If you're a Kidzworld member, you're probably between nine and 16, which means you're too young to know "the one" or to give up looking! The fact is that there are going to be lots of guys in your future. Many will seem like "the one" and many will turn out to be the wrong one. Odds are, one day you'll meet someone who is the right one. But even if that doesn't happen, what of it? Life isn't simply about finding Mr. Right. Life is about making yourself right, as in Righteous, Right On or Doing the Right Thing. Build yourself into a strong and independent person and everything else will fall into place. Oh, and one more thing - if you're not right with yourself, Mr. Right won't recognize you when your paths do cross.
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 .
