Torn Between Two Guys

[Autumn_Carie]

I am 17 and I have been dating this guy for about 6 months now and we have had our ups and downs ,I had always had a crush on this other guy for about a year and he shows interest in me too and this past few weeks he finally approached me ,he knows so much about me and yet we haven't spoken much in the past and I like him way much ,he is perfect and everything I ever wanted, I believe cheating is wrong ,I don't know what to do please help

I doubt that they are perfect. One becomes blind to faults initially.

At 17 you don't need to be exclusive to one, but you should be clear that you don't intend exclusivity until you are older. Since you have a six month relationship with the existing boyfriend I suspect he considers it exclusive. You need to make a decision and be honest. Either stick with the relationship you have, or break that off and try out a new one, or ensure your existing boyfriend knows you intend going out with others too and have both (if possible) as fun only.

Thing to ask yourself first is whether your existing relationship is no longer what you really want. After all you invested time in it, you want to know whether it is worth risking or slinging. But at 17 you have plenty of time to experiment.
