Do I choose my boyfriend or my best friend?

Dear Cassidy,

Don't String Him Along

Gillian I agree – her first step is to break up with her boyfriend.

First of all, if Corey cares about you as much as it seems like he does, you need to break it off with him if you're not completely happy. It's not fair to him to string him along when he thinks everything is great and you're secretly unhappy.

Wait until You're 18

Then, you need to talk to Ryan. Tell him exactly what you're feeling, and see how he responds. However, if he IS interested in you as "more than friends", I would suggest waiting until you are 18 to start seriously dating. I know from experience the consequences that can result from dating men too much older than you. If he really likes you, then he shouldn't have a problem waiting a year or so to be with you.

Let Him Down Gently

If you do decide to break up with Corey, try as hard as you can to let him down as gently as possible. Since he cares about your feelings, you should take care not to hurt his.

But always remember that your first responsibility is to yourself. Do what will make you happy in the long run!

Good luck!
Karmela
