Not wanting to date

December 18, 2015 Leave a Comment

Written By: Paisly From: CO
Q:

How do you deal with highschool if you really don’t want to date but you have guy friends that you hurt by not dating?

A:

Dear high school heartbreak

We can only be responsible for our own feelings. If you have values not to date, that is what you should follow. If your guy friends don’t like it, they will get over it. Never buckle or concede to the wants of others if they are in conflict with your wants and needs. You wake up with yourself in the morning.

Merry Christmas

Dr. J.
