Is it OK to hug other guys when you have a boyfriend?

Yes, it's fine, as long as you are just meaning it as a friend, i mean, i have MANY guy friends (i'm a tomboy), and i hug a lot of them, but not like i do to my boyfriend.

Those guys are just very materialistic, and are just concerned with their own selfish needs. Those guys are trying to see what they'll get you to do next. First they'll try to touch you, or hold your hand. Once they get you to shake their hand, they try to find when they can make they're next move. Not all of them are like that, even though they might want to kiss, or even just hold hands. You need to be careful, with even just touching. I refrain from even holding hands with my boyfriend. Touch is a very powerful thing. It's best to save any form of touching for when you get married. Try it with the boyfriend that you have, or if you don't have one right now, try it with the next one and see what happens. If he doesn't respect you for it, then you know that he's definitely not the right one. It'll be hard to get used to, especially if you've been touching guys for awhile, but if you refrain, then when you two do actually touch (even just holding hands) it'll be an awesome feeling!

If you are even considering other boys while you have a boyfriend, you're definitely not ready for a boyfriend.  If you need all the attention, break up with your boyfriend and date them all.

Depends on if  you already have a bf.\n\nIf not, then spend whatever time amuses you.\n\nIf you already have a bf then just keep it to school, work... group get togethers etc.\n\nNo one on one "fun".  That is just disrespectful to your bf.\n\nSame as it would be if your bf wanted to go  out in private all the time with some other girl.

There is no such thing as 'normal'. You are just more sensitive and it is your personal way of living. When it comes to affection, you will probably have a much more intense enjoyment WHEN YOU CHOOSE TO DO SO. Don't let others rule how you 'should' feel about hugs and things. You feel the way you feel. You should just acknowledge it to yourself and try to work it into your life however you can. Don't worry about being 'different'. People who are different are the ones that make life interesting. If everyone was 'normal', there would be no need for so many of them.

I dont think its wierd at all...Im actually in that position in my life right now.....Ive been through some of the worst relationships ever and at this point in my life i am very happy bieng single, but still want the physical active part from a guy....that may be why most of my friends are guys....I still like the cuddling and the hugging and the other stuff, but dont want anything serious......I dont think its wrong at all....you do whats best for you and if you feel you dont want to be in a committed relationship, no one should make you feel bad for that.

wait until you know how you feel. there is a difference between dating and having a boyfriend. it is totally okay to casually date more than one person at a time as long as they understand you're not exclusive. if you decide that you have very strong feelings for one person, stop dating the others and go exclusive with that person. don't pick one guy and stick with him unless you're sure about it, because that's not fair to him. if your emotions are going back and forth, that probably won't change even if you become his girlfriend, and you could ruin a good friendship. right now i'm rebuilding a friendship for that very reason, and it's slow and sometimes pretty awkward.

definately tell your boyfriend how you feel. tell him that you would like to hang out with the friend and the kids and be included in the activities. Tell him your concerns. \n\nHe might just say that maybe he does have feelings for him, but it's not like anything would happen because the other guy is straight. of course this still hurts alot, if not worse.\n\nMaybe you could find a friend of your own. If your attention is all the sudden on someone else other than your boyfriend, it might get his attention, plus you will be happier because you won't be thinking about it the whole time. Your friend wouldn't have to be another guy, it could be a girlfriend. I definately suggest not to make it more than just friends though, because that would most likely be out of spite and just hurt you and your boyfriend way more. \n\ntell your boyfriend how you feel, see what he does. just play it cool. make some new friends. best of luck hun!!

Well, I think you should stay with the boyfriend. The brother-like guy will have to take a hike (not to be rude or anything). IF you say he is a guy friend, then he is his a guy friend. NOW if you have feelings for the guy friend, you need to do some serious thinking. But, if you just feel bad because he wants you and you don't him, you got to get used to letting people down.

A boyfriend can be a good thing. You won't feel lonley you'll always have him to hug u and kiss u and make u feel good all over. U always need somebody like that so u'll never feel u're not worthy.

i think it would be better if u confess to the other guy that u are in a relationship. it is quite possible to fall for other people while u are in a relationship. its natural so dont worry ok? just take your time to know this guy.. it might just be a crush since u say that u love ur boyfriend. may be after sometime u will realize this new guy is just not ur kind. tell him the truth about u being into a relaionship. dont lie. it could harm ur relationship with ur boyfriend in future. and about telling your boyfriend..i think u should just tell him u have made a new friend nothing else.. tht is it.... dont worry. hope it was of some help.

You have some tough decisions to make...you have to decide which of these 3 issues is most important because you cant have them both...If you are having these feelings, you should step back and tell your boyfriend you need some space for awhile...dont use that to go after the other guy though. Use it to figure out your next move. Is this new guy worth leaving your boyfriend for? Also remember if you are in highschool, you will meet many more boys and more than likely you will not end up marrying either of these two, sorry this is so long but I had alot to say...good luck

ask your boyfriend if it's okay if you innocently date someone while he is away. let him know that it is nothing serious and that if he doesn't approve then you won't do it. most people especially men would understand this and as long as you aren't banging the high schooler (which is illegal unless he flunked a few times) you should be okay. as long as your open and honest with both the men that your involved with it's perfectly possible to maintain a healthy relationship with both of them.

You should be friends with yourself first.  Don't feel like you need a boyfriend to be a whole person.

Maybe you are doing what you might think of as harmless flirting, but apparently your friends dont think so. They think its inconsiderate and disrespectful to them. All you can do is apologize and back off when thier boyfriends are around.
