Okay, so this guy that I really like asked me out and I said yes, but now everyone is teasing me about it because he's not the most popular or good looking guy out there, but I like him! So anyways, they were telling me to break up with him and everything, and I've been playing along with the whole "I don't really like him." thing, but I really don't want to break up with him! What do I do!?

Well, I broke up with him, but it's not because everyone was telling me to. It's because I lost interest in him, but Kevin, great answer!

Well maybe when everyone else is breaking up and fighting and playing stupid games you and he can kick back and have a good laugh about how you didn't listen to them!

You can not let your friends ruin this for you. My friends said the same thing to me about my boyfriend. They told me that I was too pretty to date him and that I could easily get someone else better and more popular. It turns out, some of my friends liked him but I didn't find this out until much later. They only wanted me to break up with him so that they could have a shot with him. Girl, to make a long story short... I kept the guy and left the friends. We started dating when I was 16. When I turned 19, we got married. We had our baby girl a year after that. We have now been together 7 years and we are as happy today as we were the first day we met. All you can do is follow your heart. No one knows what your heart is telling you but you. Don't listen to them... give him a chance at least. You two may not end up married but at least you followed your heart. That in the long run is something that you could always regret not doing. Years later you will wonder what could have been. Good Luck and I hope everything works out for you.

Do what YOU want to do, don't let anyone pick your bf's or anything else in your life. Your personal taste in guys is your own personal taste! Tell your friends to leave you alone and you are happy with him. Someday they will grow up and realize it doesn't really matter who you are with as long as you are happy. I had the same problem with my bf (OF FOUR YEARS NOW!!!) and come to find out my friends has a crush on him!! That's the reason they wanted us to break up, so they could go after him. Let's just say those 2 friendships didn't last much longer.
good luck!!

First of all, listen to your heart and not your friends, are they really your friends when they tell you what to do???
You have to be an individual and listen to yourself!!!!
You are probably in highschool, with a lot of peer pressure, and I know it is hard! But with peer pressure, that can lead you into a lot of things you do not want to do, you have to start thinking on your own and listening to your heart, and just ignoring what your so-called "friends" are telling you.
When they tell you to jump, do you ask them, "how high", if you are doing what your friends want you to do to be "cool", then I have a new defination of "cool" for you, and it is doing what your mind and heart are telling you to do, and being an individual, that my friend, is "cool".
When I was in high school, I listened to my "friends" because I liked this guy and they told me not to even go up and talk to him or say hi because he was going with someone, and they made me think that just saying hi to him was bad.
Now I really wish that I did not listen to them and I always wonder about the what-if's, like what would happen if I just said hi to him.
If I could go back to my Junior year in high school and just say hi to him I would, now it is to late.
Do not listen to your peers, if you do, then you will be like me and years down the road wonder about "what if"????

since when others are in charge of your life. please tell me u are not one of those gals who lives her life only to prove something to her girl friends.
have you asked yourself why ???? your so call
friends are doing this. why they want you to break up with him. what is the real reason. is he evil person, does he have a very bad reputation.
when you want to start a good healthy relationship do you always look for good looking guys. i have news for you my dear the good looking guys belong to all those Ladies who are out there. you know ego trip which most guys go through and other females enjoy playing the game.
listen if your heart tells you that your new guy friend
is some one who makes you laugh, who makes you to think about life, who is some one that you can trust and love, some one who is Honorable, and dissent.
so who cares that he is not BRAD Pit.
does he have a head on his shoulder. is he family
man.
do not listen to your so call friends. they are jealous of you. think about it.
WHY ?????
was he ever been a jerk to you.

Girl, if you like him, go for it. don't let the people ruin your happiness, if you feel good with him and you like to be with him, the hell with everyone else. And let me tell you, sometimes the quiet and less good looking or popular guys are the most lovely, beautiful, friendly, good feelings persons in the world.

Dont worry about everyone else! Just hold your head high and keep going out with him. It will be worth it if you really like him and hopefully the others will see what a great guy he really is!

grow up, that's what. If you like him and he treats you good, then see where the relationship takes you. It sounds like the girls that are telling you to break up w/ him are jealous that you've found a decent guy. Keep the guy, don't listen to everyone else.

Stand by your feelings and stick with him.
If you give in too peer pressure once you'll be ruled by it for the rest of your life.
And besides, he might be a really great guy. Don't give that up because the other kids are immature.
