Re: Weird adult in friend group
I really think it is where Kelly puts a lot of her social energy, we used to do roleplay stuff on discord (nonsexual, dw) and she would be on like... most of the day? she even talked about ignoring work to talk with us sometimes which in retrospect was kinda weird. I read back over the messages afte...

Re: Weird adult in friend group
My mom just thinks therapy isn't doing much for me, I don't know if I agree but I've only been in for a few sessions and I wanna give it more of a chance. If I meet with him soon though I'll bring this up. I don't really think theres anyone at school because we're out for the summer, and I feel like...

Re: Weird adult in friend group
I really don't know if there's any adult irl i can talk to, my parents are talking about taking me out of therapy so I cant talk to my therapist soon, and I'm worried my parents might be mad if I tell them I'm friends with someone so old. My sister is friends with Kelly herself and close to the rest...

Weird adult in friend group
Hi scarleteen. I'm not really sure how to start this so I'm just gonna get to the point: I'm worried about a friend of mine and wondering if she might be unhealthy/creepy. This friend (I'm gonna call her Kelly for convivence) is 35(ish?) while everyone else in our friend group is 17-19. I know that ...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
Hi. I just got off the phone with him. He seemed upset, and then really mad after I didn't go along with his asking for reasons thing. I did give him some but I hung up after he tried to convince me again. I don't know if hanging up was the right idea in case I could have explained myself but I kind...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
You didnt miss anything, its alright. We've had sex without protection before so I think he just reccomended because of that? I'm not a doctor, I don't know if it's absolutely necessary, but it's better safe than sorry I guess.

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
That helps a lot actually. thank you. I wasn't really sure why that pattern happened but that's a good explanation. An update on breaking up with him, I talked with my sister and I'm gonna call him tomorrow. I don't know if thats too soon but he's been really nice and relaxed recently and the articl...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
My sister is older than me yeah, she's 19. I talked to her some more tonight and she says she's willing to back me up with my parents if things get bad, even move out with her when I'm 18 if things come to that. that's absolute worst case tho so hopefully it won't. thank you for the list. I checked ...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
Scared? I don't really know. I talked to my sister last night and she said really similar things as you did so I think you might be right. I don't know how I would leave him either. I know you said that breaking up only takes one person but what if he doesn't accept it? What if he tries to keep dati...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
He'd probably ask for a reason yeah. He's done that before, like when I say I'm gonna hang out with my friends, he asks why, and then says that the reason I give isn't good and I should just stay with him. Dating someone as a guy sounds... Really nice. Just imagining it feels a lot better than datin...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
I don't know if he'll take that as an answer tho you know? He might not care if that's the only reason I have. It would be nice if I could date someone as a guy, tho. You're right yeah. And he's nice to me, and takes care of me, and gives me life advice and gifts sometimes. I'm not really sure what ...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
We met through a friend who I think worked with him? I don't exactly remember how she knew him but it was through a friend. We all hung out together a lot, then just him and me, and he texted me a lot and eventually asked me out and I said yes I try not to think about coming out to him since I just ...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
I'm not really sure how that would feel, I've never really had a job or a lot of hobbies. I'm staying in the same city as I'm already in for school. That's what he wants me to do, though, and I've never really thought of doing anything else. I don't know. My parents are kinda distant and I think the...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
I read the article yeah. I don't really know how to feel about it. I really hope he doesn't see me like the article says he does but I don't know. He calls me smart most of the time and compliments me but now I think he could be lying then? I'm not really sure. He doesn't really like me hanging arou...

Re: Unhealthy relationship?
My friend's main issue is with his age. I don't talk about him in a lot of detail around him because, like you mentioned, it was illegal for a while and I'm still not out of the habit of not talking about him. One of my close friends who knows a bit more does have an issue with the secrecy, ironical...

Unhealthy relationship?
Hi staff. I've been in a relationship for a while that my friends call unhealthy but I'm not quite sure? I've been dating this guy since I was 14-15 (when the relationship started is kinda blurry, but I was either older 14 or younger 15), and he's been 23-26. I'm 17 now. My friends say it's unhealth...

Re: Can I get pregnant?
Sure. I don't think I'll be able to go on birth control because of my parents. but condoms are a good alternative if we can get them, right?

Can I get pregnant?
Hi! I'm really sorry if this is answered somewhere that I'm not seeing, but I was wondering. If my boyfriend and I have sex but he pulls out before he's done, can I still get pregnant? I thought the answer was no but I've heard stories of it happening.
