1 - judge ppl by facts (what they do) not by stories (what they say)\n\n2 - don't rush sex with your bfriend, sex gets better the more is desired \n(not sure how to pack this line though, don't have a dghtr to experiment how she would look like hearing that line :-)\n\n3 - math is sexy. hook up with math geeks, they know how to handle curves :-)

Easy. Accept her for who she is, irregardless of her sexual preference. Give her a hug, tell her you love her and mean it. Be very accepting of her, dont talk down to her, or berate her about this. Who knows, it may just be a phase if she is young, as in teenage young. Then again, it may be something she has ultimately chosen. Eitherway, so what. Tell her you love her and mean it, give her a hug and a kiss, and tell her its ok, that you still love her anyways. \n\nBesides, would you rather hear that, or hear how she's been getting nailed by every guy she meets, and is 2 months pregnant and has no idea who the father is. \n\nBe accepting of her. Trust me.

give her a lot of information & support. she's in for a wild ride. in this society, she will get a lot of attention, some unhealthy, some unwanted. show her how to establish her personal space, how to identify when someone is invading it & how to get anyone to step back out of her aura. \ntell her that it is nothing to be ashamed of. she is a child of God & she should be proud of who she is & who she is becoming.\nshe should begin working on her social skills & recognition of predator skills. and how to recognize a good man.\nand, especially, how to buy a good, well-fitted, supportive bra. \nfor whatever reasons, she is supposed to go through this earlier than most women do. its part of who she is to be. good luck.

Number 1. Not trying to change the guy. I think we can safely say that guys hate when girls do that. Unless its a serious problem.

I'm hearing all the right things here I tell ya. It really warms my heart when I hear such tales of courage. Things such as 'I went round to talk it through' and 'there's quite a stressful atmosphere'. Showing that you care in this way will help all three members of the family to realise how in touch you are with your feminine side. People often react in this way when in these situations. The father, by getting himself beaten, was clearly being selfish and wants some more. \nAs for the two 'ahem' ladies. Well. You just need to browse through the good book to realise that deep down, all women need to be treated in this way. \nI take my hat off to you Sir. Keep up the good work.

let me tell you the first thing about women... never take advice from women about women. Let me prove that one to you. I once asked my sister two questions. The first question was "what do you look for in a guy?" I got the typical "i want a guy that treats me good, does sweet things for me, and blah blah blah". then i asked her to describe the guys that she has had the longest relationships with. well I'll be damned if those two answers weren't the farthest away from each other as they could be. Now some girls you ask may get a good piece of advice in there once and awhile, but let me tell you the three "C's" of what a women looks for in a man. Confidence is probably number one. Not to be confused with arrogance, confidence is not having a self esteem problem. Know in your head that you are good enough for a women, but don't think that you are better than her. The second: Control. Control is about being your own person and in control of your own life. Being a decision maker and being confident in the decision. Taking charge of a date for example. None of this crap about i don't know, what do you want to do. This is where many many men falter. Control in this manner is not about controlling what a woman does. it's about being a take charge guy. One word of caution about this is that there may be feminist or two out there that don't like this kind of crap. Those women need to be kicked to the curb. The third is a challenge. Never let a woman think that you are a loser. Women want what other women want. Let her think other women want you. never wait around for a women and beg her like a puppy dog. you have your own life, live it. and if you don't, pretend. go out with your friends, go on dates with other women. And if and when you start dating a women, remember that you still have friends. never let a women tell you "let me think about it". that's just postponement for her to tell you no with hopes that you will forget about it. I'm not in any way telling you to treat a women like crap. a lot of people assume that from me when i tell them this stuff. you need to treat your woman good, but do not be her little bi***. Bottom line, women want a man to be a man. The big protector. Be a gentleman. Open doors, and treat her like a lady, but be a man about it, not a p**** whooped fool.  You sound like you're ready to hand over your testicles.  you will "worship the ground they walk on"... if it doesn't work try something else.  accept that you need to change

If you're being serious try mannatech vitamins. If you want a quick fix smack him/her between the eyes. Seriously don't forget how we were when we were teens. That doesn't mean let them do whatever they want.

What a scary question to have to ask.  If you see signs of him giving her the wrong kind of attention, listen to your instincts and pay very close attention to his behavior towards her.  I think this is one of those things people brush off, thinking it's their imagination.  I don't know how old she is, but I'd say talk to your daughter about him, see how she feels about him.  And if you haven't before, talk to her about her body and other's bodies.  You may want to talk to him too, which is obviously an awkward thing to do.  Her safety is of course number one though.  Above all, when you have such suspicions, don't ever give anyone the benefit of the doubt.

In my opinion this is soooooooooooooo simple...Tell her that she could make a better/stronger/more confident impression on a male if she went after it herself...This will also help you decide if you want him for yourself...Hehe...:)>

i'm also tired of idiot ignorant wannabe men.  here i am, a young boy, who always figured i was just a little boy.  but lately i've realized that i lead by example, i can actually skew the curve of what a woman should expect of a real man.  any guy who loves a girl should treat said girl like the dread pirate roberts in relation to the princess bride.  you ask your man "would you do the dishes?"  he should say "as you wish" and then get busy doing the dishes a.s.a.p.  you ask your man "have any interest in sweeping the house"?  he should say "as you wish", and then get busy sweeping right then....not tomorrow.  you say "make me dinner, sweetie".  he should reply "as you wish", and he should get off the couch and make you some good healthy real food........not run to mcdonalds with your credit card.  i wish you luck.

Deepthinker (I love your name!)\n\nFor starters - This is something to remember -- on one hand, it is a GOOD thing to examine your steps, and decisions.   Too many teens (and everyone in general) do things without considering the consequences.\n\nOn the other hand -- TOO much introspection can lead you to stay in neutral.  Don't get me wrong -- if I were to choose between a regrettable, impulsive act, vs waiting too much, I'd still choose the wait.\n\nBut there are OTHER issues in life where you will need to recognize the person in you that procrastinates.   And, sometimes, waiting for the perfect moment, has its drawbacks.\n\nOK -- NOW, ON TO YOUR QUESTION:\n\nLet's examine your statements, one by one.   ("Your thoughts in quotes").   "I just don't want it because I'm still young but I really like him".\n\nOnly you know when you're ready for a relationship.   Respect that intuition.   However, if it's the fear of the unknown that's stopping you, then you can set the guidelines.  And take it real slow.   Just friends learning about each other.   That way, if he's not "the one", there won't be any hurt feelings, or lingering emotions.\n\nThe fact that you like him is worth noting.   Only you know why, so maintain a balance -- enjoy the moment, and keep your emotions on check, you know.\n\n"NOW AFTER A YEAR HE STILL LIKES ME AND HE'S WAITING"\n\nI don't know if that's typical of teens these days.   When I was a teen, I'd wait for someone to show her I wasn't playing the field, or that she was the one.   But I was just too shy to open my mouth, too!   Waiting a year for someone is admirable if the guy has raging hormones (sorry, to use that term), but shouldn't be a big deal in the sense that anyone with character would have these qualities.   \n\nI guess it's a good thing -- not spectacular, but good.\n\n"MIGHT NOT WORK FOR BOTH OF US.  I FEEL WE HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENCES."\n\nThat will be an issue if the relationship goes long-term.  And it's not a bad thing.  Differences are what makes couples stronger.  If your communication skills are good, and your emotional levels are mature, you can help one another realize something about themselves (e.g  A blind spot, or something you can make them stronger in ).\n\nIt doesn't work if neither of you is willing to overlook the differences.   It won't work if neither of you are able to yield on these differences.  \n\nI don't know exactly what these differences are.  If they're cultural -- that's significant, though NOT impossible to work out.   If these differences are something like hobbies, or interests -- well, if you like one another, you will learn to appreciate what that other person is into, and it will add to your life experience.  However, if it's something like he's into sports, and you're not -- well, again, you can work it out.  Couples need to give one another space on some issues.\n\n"I ALSO BELIEVE HE REALLY LOVES ME BECAUSE ... MORE OF A DECADE."\n\nThe decade part is more of a consideration.  There IS something valuable in knowing someone for 10 years, even if you never spent time with one another.  It's significant in that the time to observe and indirectly share in a timespan has its value.\n\nYou don't, and won't know if he really loves you, DT.  True love is more than a feeling, or needing companionship.  It's unconditional.  It's mutual respect.  It's about forgiveness and acceptance.\n\n"SHOULD I GIVE US A CHANCE?"\n\nFriendship is always a good thing.  Just take it slow.  Don't have any expectations.   Keep a watch on the doubts, and see if they evaporate with time, and what caused them to leave.   If they left because of physical contact (and it's WAY too early, for that, and can lead to shortcuts you might regret later).\n\nBut, if those doubts leave because o

Here are somethings to consider:\n1. She's a scared as he might be by graduating. He'll go on to meet other girls and her 16 year old life will be a memory or after thought. Reassure her that is not the case.\n\n2. She's 16. Changing there mind is what they do. Marriage? Not in real life but now the reality of how different they are maybe setting in.\n\n3. Don't push him but be there for him. He'll talk when he's ready but you're the "other people" and could never understand what he feels or so he thinks anyway. You'll get your chance to speak but don't beat him up with what you'd do.\n\n4. Pray\n\n5. Be careful of boudries you set. All that matters to him right now is the girl. He may disregard any booundries you set which will cause conflict with you.\n\n6. Pray\n\n7. Explain to him her mindset (see #1). He needs to reaasure her and give her room. If he wants to keep her then he'll have to bit the bullet on this one and just do it.\n\n8. Never say there are other fish in the sea or anything close to that. He doesn't want fish, he wants lobster. Saying that gives him the impression that you don't feel where he is with it.\n\n9. Did I say pray?.\n\n10. Time. This is the part that hurts the most. He'll always feel something for her but only time will work for him. You don't need to rush him through it but love him through it. He needs his parents to hold him up in love. Not control who he loves. \n\nThe lesson he'll learn when it's all said and done is what love not only is but what it's not. This is a part of his development and as much as it hurts him (and you) he'll grow to maturity if he fights the good fight. \n\nWhatever you do, don't liken his kid relationship to a real marriage. To him it may be but you in your maturity know that we have all been here before and it didn't kill us now did it? Just love him through it and give him some room to grow. He'll be okay. \n\nLastly, we all respond to emotions differently (death, births, marriage, divorce etc). Some emotions you can't help but just need to let them take there course until they have run there course.\n\nDid i mention prayer? That's what I'll be doing for you.

This might not be the best advice, but it might work. Try to find out what your girl's other man did wrong that makes her father not wanting her to date. Try to find out as much about her father as you can. Try to relate to him, be a friend. Make him like you. Since it isn't a girls heart that you have to win here, its his. Father's are very protective of their little girls, just because of the way us guys think. So pretty much, just find the right way to prove yourself worthy to her father that you deserve to  \nbe with his daughter. If that don't work, then try to have your girl influence him by informing him on how you guys feel for eachother.

Stay the hell away from #1!!!\nWhat makes #2 a badboy? \nWhy would you pick #3 is he's already spoken for? - He should be out of the equation.\n#4 seems like the best bet, but can you go to the family picnic without it being akward?

he seems kind of young...and the girl is even YOUNGER!!!   Let him grow before he gets put into such a situation....If by chance, if he is rejected, he wouldn't be able to handle it that well being so young....Let him grow....then you won't need to worry about protecting him....a 13 year old should have other interests besides girls....He is wayyyyyyyyyy too young...My two sons are men now....they were raised w/ me advising them to wait for romance....they took the advise...And they are both very happy....dating so young can lead to early pregnancy umong other probs...

You talk With the person..not At them...ask 'him' questions that require more than a yes or no answer. At 15, he's more than a child, he's a young adult...in 3 more years, he's legally accountable for his actions and decisions. When you're given answers to your questions, be very careful of your reaction-don't judge, if you don't understand something--say so, and ask his help in your understanding him better...and tell him how things were for you at his age...things are Very different now than they were when you were 15..and tell him that..and ask Him what kind of disapline should take place when he knowingly breaks one of your rules..remember-he's his own person..with his own thoughts and feelings..and at these ages, too, he's trying to make your rules His rules--and is gonna test them out..teenage yrs are difficult, but not impossible...

Ummm hhmm.. let me see..\n1Nice manners like all the men used to be like (well most anyways).\n2The kind of man who is not always too confident and isn't afraid to show it. (I'd like to help him get over a few probs, ya know?)\n3Not forceful in the ways of kissing, feeling or anything as such. Not even implying that stuff to the girl.\n4Showing genuine friendship before the before said in #3\n\nhave a great day everyone! *hugs*
