I like this idea RAK make you feel so warm inside knowing that you have just brightened someone's day I was walking down a street when a young woman came up to me asking for donations for Lifeline. I told her that I was under 18 and couldn't donate and apologised. I said goodbye and kept walking. I finished my errand and was walking back and saw her i the same spot. I felt so bad that I couldn't donate, especially because she was so lovely and cheery. I then went into a nearby bakery and ordered a chocolate milkshake. I went up to her and said "I know I can't donate to your cause so I'll donate to you for helping the cause" and handed her the milkshake. She freaked out and couldn't believe what was happening and gave me a huge hug and was saying how much better her day now was. I still feel really good about it :P

Hello there RO Okay so me and my girlfriend have been together for around 5 months and we have been discussing the idea of sex. I am ready for it. I love her with all my heart and soul and I see her as such a perfect person. Now, she is older than me (Only about 8 months) and she is also not a virgin. She has had sex with only one other guy which was her previous boyfriend. She doesn't believe that she should be the one I lose it too, and is scared that I'll regret later and wants me first time to be special. Now, I really really really love her and I can't stress it enough and I have told her that I want to lose it to her because she is so special to me. I haven't at all been pushing it and I completely respect any boundaries and fears on her part, it's just been just simple discussion, but she still believes that I deserve someone better. The idea of sex with each other isn't treated as complete red zone when it comes to conversation, and we have displayed our interest in it, but it is just the first time that worries her. How can I help us get through this? I do think we should wait perhaps a few months longer to be honest. Just feels better to me and might give her time. I really love this girl and don't want to force her into anything that she is not 100% comfortable with.
Just a few things about our relationship that may be taken into account
1. We are long distance. She lives in Canberra and I am in Sydney. We are able to see each other 1-2 a month, staying at each other's houses
2. She hasn't said anything about her not wanting to have sex other than what I have said. I have urged her to be honest with me and I believe she has been.
Apologies if I at all sound at all pushy or shallow :/ I just don't know how to explain it that well

Have you always wanted to just scream out something that's making you happy? I always do but I don't have anywhere to do it I love my girlfriend! She is the most amazing girl in the world and she makes me so so so happy! I love her with all my heart! She lights up my world like noone else and I can't wait to move in with her! I am the luckiest guy in the world and I can't believe that she wants to be with me!
What's making you happy, RO?

For me it would have to be 1. Being alone. Whether it be not having a partner or being lost. 2. Offending or hurting someone. Especially someone I care about. I am always worried about screwing up my relationship with my girlfriend, despite her insisting that I can't. 3. I get really anxious and scared when I don't know what is going on in a situaition. My last relationship really left me in tatters as I had no idea what was happening.
4. The idea of eternity/nothingness. Infinite space really messes with my head. 5. Cephlapods. Anything like squids or octopi are not cool with me. They disturb me like hell. Last one is kind of random

Thanks for replying OKay so today she got worse So we are both in the same drama group and we have a performance coming up. She doesn't come to class today and she knew we would be rehearsing. I called her and asked her where she was. She was jigging class to go get food. I told her that we had to rehearse becuase it is due in a few days (she's also a major role). She replies with a simple "Okay." Not an "okay" like "okay, I'll be there soon" and "okay" like "okay, so?" This performance is going to be hard to do with her skipping rehersals and we get marked on it as our assessment for this term. The teacher has asked me and my friends to talk to her and she will as well

Hello RO
Okay so I've been friends with this girl for a few years now and we've grown pretty close. However, lately I feel like she's taking me and our other good friends for granted. She expects us to give her food and water when she wants to, and then when I refuse calls me a "bad friend." Recently I have been just refusing to give her lunch money or food (I see it as 'My money, my rights with it'). She keeps urging us to do stuff she does (drink and the like) when I want none of that.
Also lately, she said something pretty hurtful without realising it. Okay so me, her and our other friends were talking about what we would do in an apocalypse. She basically said she is going to go with her boyfriend. I'd like to point out that her boyfriend is abusive emotionally to her and other people (including us), doesn't love her in any way, uses her and is also incredibely narcissistic (He brags about he would get heavy weapons cause he is an "expert" on them) So what she said was "What if our groups met? That would be interesting" Now me and my other friends immediately interpreted that as "I wonder who would win in a fight" which really gets to us and we were really offended. When we told her how hurtful it was, she shrugged it off. I don't know what to do. She has been a good friend many times but she just expects me and the others to do stuff for her, while she does nothing and comes up with excuses Should we do an intervention kind of confrontation? I really want to do something about it, because at the moment, she is really getting on my nerves and not being a good friend. I do want to be supportive and to be there for her but it's hard when she takes me for granted.

@ElleBelle
Thank you :) I definetely would reccommend just going for it. While it is nerve racking and a very hard thing to do, you need your partner to know that you're honest. They should respect your feelings, even if they don't feel it as well. It can also help with them when they feel they feel the same, as they know that you won't freak out (that's what happened this time and the first time I asked her out, she probably have never said anything out of fear.) The more you think about it, the more reasons that you shouldn't will come to mind, reasons that may make no sense. I found with asking her out and saying that I loved her, you just need to do it, and it may come out for the best like here :) A good relationship is based on trust and honesty and they should respect that.
P.S. if they don't feel the same, don't treat them any different, they want you the way you are and if you want them to feel the same, just act natural. If they are scared like my girlfriend was though (for her it was past experiences) just make sure you tell them you're there for them no matter what :)

OKay it's been a while since I told you about what has ben going on. So I told her that I loved her about a week ago. She responded pretty positively but had to process it. She said she was scared because the last person she said she loved, she got hurt badly, and while she knows I'm not him, it's pretty hard to get worried and I completely understa, being there myself. Anyway, so I was getting worried that she was getting a bit scared until last night while we were on the phone, she said that she loved me :) I am so happy and still trying to process this, but I can't stop smiling :)

Okay guys, an update
The boyfriend broke up with my friend and after some talking to my friend, it seems like she also think he's a sociopath. She had been meaning to break up with him for a while but couldn't do it
Now, she's dealing with it pretty well and while she hasn't gotten over the breakup, she knows that it's a good thing that they've broken up. I'm hapy for my friend and I'll support her in ever way possible

Hey Just an update Well I said it! We were cuddling and I told her :)
I was scared to try and make it a moment that wouldn't be too awkward but it just felt right and it came out during a conversation. She said that it was really sweet and she was really flattered. I made sure she knew that she shouldn't pressured to feel the same and that I didn't expect her to feel the same and she understands :)
She understood and said she needed some time to think. Later she said that she might be starting to feel similar and that it's been on her mind for a while
It was really nice to get it off my chest and I'm really happy with her reaction. Call me crazy, but the fact that she thinks she maybe getting the same feelings and that it's been on her mind means that soon she'll feel the same ^^
She says she is so happy with me and thinks I'm perfect and I feel the same with her
She's just so amazing and I can't stop thinking about her ^^ I feel so lucky
Thank you guys for advice, guys!

@m-y93 I was so close! She loved the card and my gift and we had an amazing time together. I was so close to saying it but I just got so scared of her reaction and that'd it ruin the moment and my entire stay. I was going to say it on the last few moments so it wouldn't be too awkward but I had to leave pretty much immediately after me and her family got back from brunch and I had no time to say it. I usually get scared when it comes to telling people stuff in person and I end up saying it over text (Not ideal but it's true) When we both were starting to like each other, neither of us thought the other was interested. If it were not for me telling her after she go back over Facebook, none of this would have happened. She's like me in that she is always worried she'll mess something up. That's why I think she might feel the same but is scared to say anything as well. I've come close to saying it over Facebook but I stop myself and say to myself that I'll do it next time I see her. I'm just so so scared that it'll freak her out. I also don't like doing anything with her that she doesn't enjoy as much as me and she might just be doing it to make me happy, I want her to enjoy it as well. This means I'll feel bad if I say I love you and she doesn't feel the same way. In terms of what she feels, I think she might be on the same page as me. She has said she feels so happy with me and says I'm the nicest guy she knows, this amongst other things that she says that make me warm inside. She's visiting in two weeks at me house, I'm going to try and find a moment to say it. I'll do something else for her or I might try and express my feelings in a poem :) Do you have any advice on how I can become more confident about me saying it? I'm just so scared it'll make her awkward or make her feel bad that she doesn't feel the same :(
Should I tell her at the start of the stay and if she says she feels the same, make the stay more enjoyable or should I wait til the end?

@m-y93 Your message actually really touched me :P thank you I recently saw her again, just for a night and we went out for dinner and then back to her hotel room. I kinda want to do something for her at the time. I'm always thinking about new things to do for her. I don't try to, I just think of something and go "Hey! That'd be nice!" For Valentine's Day I'm making her a special card with lyrics from her favorite band (Mayday Parade) on the cover and a message from me inside. I might end up asking then to be honest, not that I'm planning it but knowing me, it would be then. However, I always get ridiculously nervous and bail out :/ We have a talked a lot and I see all these little signs that I keep reading as strong feelings e.g. last time we Skyped, she cried after the call ended and hugged her pillow. While it's sad when someone cries, especially someone I love (Wow, just saying it makes me feel good) but I can't help feel flattered and curious as to her feelings that it got to the point where she was sobbing into her pillow over me :/

Hey RO So one of my closest friends (I've been kinda realising how badly she treats her friends and family so I'm kinda trying to draw away) is currently going out with a guy and they have been together for a few months now. Their relationship seems really unhealthy. She has cheated on him multiple times and confessed to him but he doesn't care at all, not in a "I forgive you" way but in a "I don't care what you do" way. She has said he is really apathetic and I have to agree with her. He cares little about anything and I think he has little regard for her. When I see them together, she is all over him with hugs and kisses and he either reacts annoyed or in a non-caring way.
I have done some study on mental conditions and I actually believe he might be an actual sociopath. Here's why: He has little regard for others (The way he talks about her as if she means nothing and his morals are questionable) Sex means little to him (He has bragged in detail their sexual habits and to me, that's the sign of someone who sex doesn't mean much to) He can be quite violent (He talks about kids he has assaulted, claiming them to have "annoyed him" and we have heard stories of him bullying other kids who are really nice or sensitive, not a threat) Manipulative (He brags about his ability to play people, he said his way of finding friends at schools is pretending to be friendly and innocent, targeting a group and latching himself. He then reveals his true self and by that time he's already in the social circle. He is also very good at sucking up to teachers and will do anything to get what he wants) To top that he has been expelled from multiple schools and uses a lot of drugs, which they both do together I don't know whether I should tell my friend about my observations because she does feel happy with him but I don't want her to get hurt. Other friends have noticed these things about him but I was the one who put it together as a theory of sociopathy, however let's just say she...isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, and I don't she realises what he has done at all. I also have a pretty strong sense of justice and I don't like people who get away with things. Should I tell her, RO?

I look up to a few people for different reasons Josh Ritter (musician)- A man who is so fond of marriage as he views it as a hopeful act of partnership between two people which I view marriage as, not as a submission, but as step in life saying "We love each other to heaven and back". Despite that, Josh went through a devastating divorce but after some travelling and songwriting in Canada, he met someone else and now has a child. His newest album reflects on this and shows that he hopes that his ex-wife is okay but he is honest in saying that really doesn't care a lot because he is looking out for himself and he is happy with his new wife and child. H.P Lovecraft (author)- I admire his extensive imagination and his creativeness that I believe surpasses almost every author in his field. A man who was born into a family of extreme finacial troubles and suffering from depression and suspected autism, he engrossed himself in literature and began telling his own stories of the unknown.
Probably a few more but those are the ones that come to mind

Hey @Myvo I just love everything about her She's beautiful She's funny We have a similar sense of humor She's mature I love talking to her whenever I can I love when we cuddle and fall asleep together I love how she accepts me and is comfortable with me and she feels special and wanted We can joke about anything and make each other laugh until our sides hurt I also love that she cares about me and her affection towrads me, whether it's mutual or whether I'm just a bit deeper in than her I think we have both been in bad places and can talk to each other about it without judgement We are different in a few ways but nothing major, everyone is different aren't they? I value that we are our own people as well as being together and I respect her in that way Those are just a few things about her that I love :P

Hey RO So I'm in a relationship with a girl currently and things so far have been great, even though it hasn't been very, I'd say about 2 1/2 weeks so far. I'm 16 by the way and she's 17 (Only 6 months apart) She has said she has become really comfprtable with me, more than she has with anyone else before her. She has said she wanted to sing for me and she has said in the past that she is even scared to sing for her family and I have found her company so uplifting for my mood and I just find her so amazing and beautiful. I find her so special compared to other girls I have dated and I want to be with her every minute of the day, but I can't. She lives in Canberra and I'm in Sydney but we have been able to visit each other reasonably frequently. I feel so attached to her and I find her so amazing that I think I'm falling for her. I have been so tempted to tell her multiple times but I'm scared of her reaction. Part of me is also scared that she might be in the same boat as me, afraid to say something and that we'll go on and on worrying. I don't know whether I should tell her or if I should wait for some more time to pass. My last relationship, the girl said she had fallen for me a few days into the relationship and kept saying it for a while until we broke up and I don't know whether that is influencing me or not. I do believe my feelings are legitimate and not just something else that I am mistaking for love. So RO, am I being stupid in saying I've fallen for a girl after a few weeks into a relationship and should I wait a bit longer before confessing my feelings for both our sake's? I can give more info if it's needed

@Lex
In a way she has moved on. She started liking a guy when we were together but never really tried to do anything for me about it e.g. suggest a breakup. I believe they are together. After we broke up I message the guy (not the best idea) and told him to take care of her and to support her when she gets down. He told her what I said and she started thinking I was planning to sabotage their relationship or something. I don't know whether it makes me a bad person to say that I sometimes find it funny how desperate she is to try and annoy me, I was always a bit of a sadist. I think you might be right about her being jealous of how I've moved on quickly and she might be trying to make me feel bad again. I just think she needs help and needs to get over herself and her fantasies of the "The One" when she is only 16 years old. If she doesn't get her s*** together, she'll keep hurting herself but at the moment, I really couldn't care less what she does. I hope that doesn't reflect badly on me :/ Now I'm just trying to spend as much time with my new girlfriend as I can. I do feel like I've learnt something and I am not as sensitive as I used to be because I was really overly-sensitive when I was with my ex. Thanks for all the help guys!

So glad to hear things are going well for you now!
I've always found that every time a relationship has ended, something really great happens to me soon afterwards. Looks like the same has happened for you, too. :)
I feel a little bit sad for your ex, though… sounds like she's having trouble moving on. Maybe she's disappointed because you got over it and moved on a lot more quickly than she excepted you would. When other people don't react as expected, sometimes people feel like they're losing control.

Well it's been a while but here's an update @ruenhonx
Okay so what has happened since I realised how poorly I was treated in the relationship. I won't go into details but let's just say she started getting feelings for another guy but refused to end our relationship. I realised she is immature and self centred and I am glad to be rid of her to be honest. Our school formal was at the end of the year and me and my ex girlfriend were supposed to go together as expected, so when we broke up, we didn't. I invited a friend from Canberra and she agreed to come all the way down to go with me, which made me start to get feelings for her. My ex girlfriend on the other hand, heard about me inviting someone and is convinced I did it to "get back at her" , which is kinda contradictory seeing as she was the one accusing me of stuff. Anyway, formal went along without a hitch. My ex was openly trying to piss me off and make me jealous with her date but I found it quite amusing, if a tad annoying as I want to give my date a good time. I got reports from my friends about overhearing my ex talking about us to her friends but again, I had no reaction. So what's the story today? I am now going out with the girl who I invited to formal and I am really happy. She is beautful, caring and hilarious. She doesn't neglect me like my ex and on the contrary, gives me full attention which I love :) My ex pops up every now and then but the only thing I think about her is how funny it is that she is still going on about it, which is her problem. She did say she "wouldn't mind" being friends again, but I don't think I want to be, not until she realises what she did to me and gets her s*** together. Anyway, thanks heaps guys! I am a lot better :D

@ruenhonx @Pris Thanks for the help guys Just an update She has calmed down now and moved on She has started liking another guy, a bit I think to do with trying to make me jealous but I don't really care I am just gonna stay out of her life and she should stay out of mine If she keeps going or starts up again or gets worse, I'll start to report it I think she has a few issues to do with relationships and her own mental health. When we were together, I did urge her to get proffessional help but she refused. It was a bad combination with our issues (I have depression and anxiety) even if we fit will with personalities. I feel sorry for her truly and hopefully she'll get better but it's not my problem anymore. Just hope this new guy is prepared. It reminds me of the song "Hopeful" by Josh Ritter
I’ve seen her around now with someone new I don’t know She likes greed-eyed boys who are haloed in hope But I know the look in his eyes and I know all the old signs Just a couple more curves before his own road unwinds These days I’m feelin’ better about the man that I am There’s some things I can change and there’s others I can’t I met someone new now I know I deserve I never met someone who loves the world more than her She has been through her own share of hard times as well And she has learned how to tear out the heaven from hell Most nights I’m alright still all rocks roll down hill But she says I’ll get better, she knows that I will Thanks guys :)

Thanks @ruenhonx I have a friend who is close to her who is tring to convince her that the stuff I had apparentely said about her was taken out of context or simply not true. She however, believes I am manipulating people to support me and to go against her. I don't blame her at all, this whole thing started due to a misunderstanding. I just want her to believe that I haven't said anything against her at all but she refuses to believe anything that supports me. I have even sent her pictures of the texts that I thought was a mutual break up (I know it's not thebest way but she refused to talk i person and had said that she knows what is going to happen). She also now think I am interested in another girl to get back at her which is also complete nonsense. She herself said that I should move on.
I am simply just going to stay out of her way and not say anything about her at all. If she continues, it will only affect her and that's not my problem. Call me a bad guy, but I just don't care about what happenes to her anymore. I want her to have a happy life but if she wants to go and screw it up, I don't really care.

Hey ReachOut So recently me and my girlfriend broke up with what I thought was a mutual understanding that we would be better off not being together However, she is now telling people that I broke up with her over the phone. She was the one who intially brought up the idea of breaking up but when I said we should talk in person, she refused. So now she has been saying stuff about me like that I am a creep and I should be avoided by any other girls in the school. She has been told that I have been spreading rumors and stuff about her by other people when that simply isn't true. When someone asks me what happened, I just say "It didn't work out". I don't know what to do about it. I'm not worried about my relationship with her but I don't want to be called a creep and a bad choice when it comes to dating. I have tried to get her to talk in person but she refuses to talk to me. I have apologized for harm that I have caused her and I have wished her a healthy future and I have admitted that I can be an a**hole and that I am doing all I can to better myself. How do I get her to believe that I am not spreading negativity about her or how do I stop her from doing that to me? I like to see myself as a genreally nice and caring guy but if she begins to make fake stuff up, I fear for my social life. My close friends obviously don't believe her but again, I don't want that sort of stuff spread about me. It makes me really upset
