theres this really cool girl



TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:

Hey, We recently got a new puppy and we (usually me and dad, sometimes mum comes along too (i'm an only child)) take him to a "Puppy kindy" where we can socialize him and teach him some basic obedience for later on. Anyway theres this really cool girl there who 'looks' about my age but I'm not sure. We've talked a few times, but just about our dogs and I really think I like her, and would like to keep in contact with her, and possibly start a relationship. But I don't know how old she is and I just cant bring myself to ask her for her number or give her mine etc. I know its a self confidence thing, but I'm relly shy, and since I broke up with my old GF(we were together about 4 months, until i found out she was cheating on me), I've kinda had a spot that leaves me with this emptiesness everyday, and when I see this girl at K______ that emptieness feels filled. I've nowhere else to look for help, my parents won't listen / help me, and I know my friends will just make fun of me, or think I'm a dick or something. I hope that if anyone else out there has a similar problem that my plight could help them find their solution too.

TEEN LINE WROTE:

Hey, I'm sorry that you cannot talk to your parents about it that must be really hard. But that's what we are here for! It sounds like you are very affected by your last relationship and that it is reflecting on how you want to approach the girl that you meet at the k______. It is a perfectly normal feeling to be scared and nervous to ask out a girl or to get her number. you said that your friends will make fun of you but do you think that they can relate to the situation, that they can maybe give you suggestions? And we would love for you to live chat with us if you want to talk. We are on from 6-10 pm pacific standard time and we are on every night!
