I am in love with my boyfriend but he can't date yet so we are kind of dating in secret. I just go asked out by a guy who can date and I don't know what to do. I really don't want to break up with my boyfriend but I want to give this other guy a chance. I changes the date and stuff and we are going for ice cream as friends but I am such a softy it will kill me to tell him that I have a boyfriend. Part of my wants to put my relationship on hold with my current boyfriend untill he can date but I have problems with that. ARGG I just need any advice any one is willing to give. thanks

    Honesty is the best policy deep down inside you you already know the answer. If you are in love with your boyfriend you wouldn't even tempt it.

    This is liable to be a problem all your life - it's the "grass is always greener on the other side of the fence" scenario. Dating in secret is no way to carry on a good relationship. If/when your relationship is discovered, it will destroy any and all trust that was given to you both.

    As for this other guy, if you like him *and* you want to go out with him, you really need to break up with your current boyfriend first. If you're not willing or ready to break up with your current boyfriend, you need to let this other guy know you've *got* a boyfriend. Perhaps the two of you can just be friends, and maybe sometime in the future you'll be able to go out together.

    You have to decide how much you like the guy who isn't able to date yet, however you are still young so dont tie yourself to one guy. I dont mean date all kinds of guys but maybe going out for an ice cream with this other guy couldn't hurt. You dont need to give him all the information until you decide whether you are interested in him or not. If you think you might have an interest in him then maybe explain the situation to him and you'll have to make the big decision.....who you want to date after that.

    If you truly love your boyfriend you wouldn't even be asking this question. You would already know the answer, another guys wouldn't even be a thought in your mind. So you need to sit down and get your thoughts straight about if you really do love your boyfriend.

    I was put in this kind of situation and what i did was talk to my boyfriend and told him how i felt and h got kinda mad at me but he eventually understood and i am really happy with my new boyfriend and my ex said that it actually helped him out cause he could concentrate on other things right now.

    in all honesty, if you are under 18, date other people and see what else is out there. i dated a girl from when she was 16 til she was 18 don't get me wrong it was the best but she kept getting asked out cause she was still in school and i wasn't. so take advantage of the opportunity to date other guys. but still stay friends with your bf. trust me he will find other girls to date.

    ask yourself how much you love your curreny boyfriend and how much u really like the new guy. if the NG is worth anything he'll wait for you. (i think u should ask him to wait, say your not ready or something) i mean do pros and cons on each of them. who do u really liek more? but i think im leaning towards the NG because you can go out in public you knoe?

    If your boyfriend is too young to date, then you are TOO young to be tied to one guy! Let yourself see what's out there, just be careful because someone might get hurt, so be honest with both boys.

    Tell your bf that you want to give that guy a chance until he's allowed to date. If he's a good bf he'll understand.

    Honesty is ALWAYS the best option. Tell them both the truth, and I am sure all will work itself out. Good Luck
