Avoiding a relationship.

[undercover6]

Facts: I haven't had my first kiss, I've never had a girlfriend, and I havent even gone on a "real" date. And I'm proud of every single one of those things.

So there's this girl that I've been friends with for almost a year and we're basically each others best friend. Basically we're 100% comfortable around each other and frequently talk on the phone into the early AM hours.

I'm happy with being just friends with her. However, for the past 6 months or so she's wanted to be boyfriend/girlfriend. I don't understand why she feels like she needs to have a boyfriend, and she doesn't understand why I really don't want a girlfriend. (MY reason is that I personally am not ready to have a girlfriend. Also, I really enjoy crushes and having a girlfriend would cancel those out).

PS: On a side note, I feel really tempted to kiss her the next time she tries to kiss me (I've already avoided it about 3 times in the past 6 months). What should I do about THIS problem? (I don't want to lead her on -- I've already told her twice that I just want to be friends)

Don't kiss her if you want to continue being her friend. Kissing her is the best way to ruin everything you share.

Undercover, how old are you? Are you not ready for a relationship because of your age, or is it something else?

[undercover6]

I'm 16. Basically I feel like I'm not ready for a relationship because I feel like I'm "not done" having crushes yet. That's pretty much the best way I can explain it right now.

Yeah, you're still pretty young. Good for you for holding your ground.

Thing is, though, I'm 38, and I still get crushes.

You DO love me!

Of course. You're Super! We just need to put you in the fast-forward time machine and add about ten years to you.

On second thought, never mind. I can handle it.
