Yep, you have it right! He talks about still wanting a future with me and how he basically knows no one else will be able to give him the love and attention I give but he still wants time alone. I’m just not sure how that makes sense but I guess my job is to just try and accept it. The thing is, I d...

Hi everyone I’m having serious relationship issues and I feel completely lost. A couple months ago, I came on here because I had feelings for someone else and it was very complicated. Long story short, I left my boyfriend briefly to be alone but someone else was kinda in the picture. I totally regre...

Hello everyone :) I’ve been with my boyfriend, who I will call joe, for about 3 years now. In the last 3 years, things have been rough, like any relationship. Joe used to be very lazy and he showed little to no effort. We broke up and were on the rocks for a few months and I started to see someone e...

Siân, it does sound like me 3 years is such a long time, and as a person, he’s very talented and great and I’d hate to lose that but as a boyfriend, I can honestly say he’s been very absent and it’s not fair that he’s attempting to do all this change in a short time just so I don’t leave him. But yo...

How am I supposed to know which one is the best for me? Or what option is best?
- sorry for posting after, I thought I asked that in my last post and upon checking for a reply, I saw I didn’t
(Thank you!)

Mo, you are absolutely correct. He’s more of a homebody, but I don’t think that’s an excuse to have such low spirits whenever we WOULD go out. Behind every event or picture from an event, I can recall an argument just moments or hours before leading up to the event. It felt like he was constantly an...

At times, I feel like my happiness was not true happiness because I was always trying to justify his actions and reasons for not doing small things for me. We would have fun times together, but I’d have to drag him out and there would always be an argument before MOST outings. It was like I was just...

Hi Sam and thanks for replying and referring those articles. According to the first article, I have both reasons to leave and stay. The reason why it’s hard for me to leave, of course, is because I do love him still. I picture myself marrying him because I’ve thought about it for so long and I love ...

Hi everyone. My boyfriend and I of almost 3 years are currently going through some struggles. Throughout most of our relationship, I felt like I was the one who cared the most and just did everything. Our relationship was a lot of ups and downs and I’ve gotten to the point where I just need a break....

Hi guys! Long time Scarleteen user here! So, as the title suggests, I've had a very light period lately. I'll start off by saying that this month and last were very stressful. I worry a lot by nature. While my period last month did start on time according to my app, and lasted the same amount of tim...

I'm just a little worried because I started spotting on Sunday when it was the day of my first placebo pill.. It got a little heavy as the day went on and I had back cramps like crazy. Monday was still okay and then by Tuesday night I was pretty much just completely done? I had unprotected sex witho...

Before I start, I wanted to thank you guys for always providing great information and answers to my posts and everyone else's! Sometime last week or two weeks ago, I posted about unprotected sex and birth control! I believe Heather and I spoke a bit but I am back with another question because sadly ...

Yes!! You got it now :) that's what I was trying to say! Oddly enough, my period was on Sunday the 17th, ended sometime before Sunday the 24th SO I started my birth control on the 24th bc I was already a few days done w my period so I think you and I are on the same page now! Sorry if I didn't expla...

I'm sorry, I'm just not understanding
How did I not do a Sunday start if I got my period the 17th and started it once my period was done? My period was done before Sunday the 24th and I started it that same Sunday.

I didn't jot down when my period ended but I started my birth control the Sunday after my period ended. So let's say my period ended on a Tuesday, I started it that following Sunday.
Regardless I didn't have unprotected sex until the 12th day of being on birth control.

So sorry for the late response! But do you think the pill is in full effect? I've been taking it for 12 days, now 13 and I always take it around 1:10 give or take one to two mins but always on time basically. I'm just scared that since I haven't used up a whole pack of birth control that it's not in...

Hi everyone! :) I started taking birth control about 12 days ago, almost 2 weeks ago. My boyfriend and I just had unprotected sex for the first time and he finished inside of me. Immediately after, I started cramping so bad and I'm scared I might not be protected against getting pregnant. The instru...

I definitely want to tell Her I'm having sex but since I told her yesterday I wasnt, if I tell her now and that im scared because my period has not arrived, she might get angry, I'm guessing
I would feel safe having the shots that are every 3 mlnths but I have to do a bit more research on that!

Yes! See, I get really bad back pains whenever I have my period and it's gotten to the point where I have to take super strong pain relievers just so it can subside for a few hours. And I don't like doing that :( I heard BC can help with severe cramping. My mom loves my boyfriend and she thinks he's...

I use this app called Period Diary! It's been pretty accurate so far even though I know periods can vary sometimes for no reason at all. And its happened in the past where I'm "late" a few days but I wasn't sexually active at all so i wouldn't worry. But now that I am it makes me worry. My...

From the time I had sex that I posted about above, I haven't gotten my period. I also had sex a week ago but again I used a condom I'm not sure why my period is now 2 days late and I'm really concerned. Not sure if I should take a test?

I forgot to mention that I even water tested the conform after we were done and it was fine :) But, I have mentioned it to him and he kinda just shrugs it off and agrees we would have sex more! He doesn't even think it's a bad thing that we don't have sex thag often but he's always busy and I can't ...

Hello everyone :) Just recently I started having sex with my boyfriend of 2 years and some change. We don't have sex often because he is very busy with school and work but we do see each other often which is nice! We just never have alone time sadly. We broke up before actually making it to two year...
