I've been hanging around guys for most of my life, since most of the girls I've known reject me for my behavior. Which is totally fine with me, I don't want to be friends with people who I can't get along with. I have two close guy friends, despite the fact they are total opposites of each other. They do have something in common though, when they're upset it's rather hard to cheer them back up. And it makes me feel down when I can't seem to do anything to cheer them up or help them out. Over the years, I've learned a lot about guys, but this is something that has always escaped me. What is the simplest way to help these guys out? Do you have any ideas? I enjoy getting up every morning because of these guys, and I want to be able to repay them for that.

Girls are a complete mystery to me. They don't really know what they want. I have a problem, I am starting to fall in love with my best friend. She has been there for me through everything. I have known her since the 5th grade and I really like her. I talked to one of my other friends and she said to follow my heart and if my heart tells me to tell her, I should tell her, but I'm afraid that I might ruin our friendship and that's something I don't want. I need your help. Should I tell her that I have a crush on her or just keep on the DL.

why do guys always say we do something wrong just because maybe there ex has .. that doesn't mean we will. and why do they lie to us and call us mean names. also say they love us when honestly we are to young to really honestly know what love is. and than use us for their "needs" then dont want to take the consequences if there is one. please let me know cause i have all these problems

I want to know why guys reject love sometimes, they think that all they need to love a girl is sex and dont see past that point and when you try and give them that love beyond sex they reject you. I know that girls do the same thing, I've heard some of my guy friends talk about what their girls do.

Hey Dawson- My best friend is a guy, and I recently told him I liked him as more than my best friend, he decided that at least right now that it would be too weird if we were together (I agree) and that he doesnt like me like that right now. I'm always hearing about how best friends turn into lovers. People always tell us we would be the best couple ever and that we should date, but neither of us is ready for that. I want it to happen in the future but he is also one of the most confusing people ever. So I was just wondering if you think there ever will be a time that we can be together? I feel like I'm in love with him and I feel like its meant to be. What do you think?

I've been having some trouble with this guy friend of mine lately. At first we were great friends but then he started flirting with me a lot so i started flirting back and i developed feelings for him. I was pretty sure that he felt the same way about me too, but when i told him how i felt he just said "i'm going through a rough time right now, and its not a good time for a relationship" Now everytime i'm in class with him or i see him in the hallway at school he doesn't talk to me unless he has to and he's always trying to avoid eye contact. Did i do something wrong? why is he suddenly withdrawing from our friendship and how do i go about being friends with him again and just having things go back to normal?

what do you do if your best friend is a guy, and you've fallen in love with him? but right now he doesnt exactly feel the same way? and he likes one of your girl best friends?
- Emily

Wednesday, Jan 28, 2009 - 12:59:49 AM
the deal is with most relationships i think is the girl and guy dont communiate the way they should. if the guy does something the girl doesnt like, she usually wont tell him. if you want a guy to know what u like and dont like you have to bluntly tell them. you cant just expect them to be able to read your mind or even your body language. and not talking to them doesnt help eather. dont bottle up anything when it comes to you and your man. just let it all out and tell them whats up and whats on your mind, even if they dont ask. and trust me on this because i speak from experience. i have been in a relationship with the same guy for almost a year now and we have nver had a fight. and i owe it to communication.

Okay so im going out with this one guy and he wants to be the perfect boyfriend. The problem is that I feel I should break up with him, but I DON'T want to because I like him a lot! I don't what I feel and I cant make up my mind. And I have another problem! I like a different guy that I have liked for a long time. I don't know what to do!?

Hey Dawson, So I was wondering why it's always the girls falling for their best friend and never the guys? OR why guys can never tell a girl how they really feel when the girls just told the guy everything they feel?

Wednesday, Jan 28, 2009 - 12:36:28 AM
Hey Dawson, It's strange; girls are a complete mystery to me, and yet when you asked for questions, it took me a while to come up with one. Here it is: why do some girls try to make their boyfriends jealous by flirting with other guys? It plays right into a guy's fear of being found inadequate and can put unnecessary strain on the relationship. I don't understand what girls expect to gain from doing such a thing. @ Savannah - If you don't mind, I would like to try to answer your question as well. A lot of times, shyness depends on the guy. I consider myself a very shy person around people I don't know (and girls I like), whereas I know other guys that are rather bold and more aggressive. We're all wired a little differently. When it comes to approaching girls, it can be hard for guys because two of a guy's biggest fears are rejection and being found inadequate. When a girl turns us down, both of those fears come to realization. Knowing that, it's hard for us to muster up the courage to set ourselves up for what could possibly a devastating blow. So when it comes to girls, guys probably are shier than you may think, although some to more of a degree than others. Many times we will also be shier towards girls we like than we will be in other social situations.

hey Dawson Sorry if it's a repeat. ok I kinda have 2 questions. There's this girl that i like, I sorta took things a little slower then normal just because I wasn't sure how my rent's would react. I hung out a lot around her and bought her dinners and several movies but we weren't "Dating". Like the day before I was going to ask her out her brother said she was dating some other guy, she never said anything ever! Now like a month later she's I think trying to make me want to date her. I know the guy she's dating but i never asked him if they broke up. So my Questions are Why do girls not say anything even if they know you are going to ask, "eat the cake" and then say NO! Second why is she trying to get back with me, when she's already got a guy?

hey Dawson! I have been trying 2 gather up the guts to call you but its like 10:00 pm and my parents would ground me and my sister would think im crazy. So im blogging u. I dont have e-mail and i was wondering if you could respond on your blog. So my bf and i r fighting again. Last time that we foght was in 2007. By the time of 2008 we wer still fighting. Then we worked it out in November. We wer just regular friends. He hates 2 b single and is trying to get drunk on fruitjuice.1st each cup has 40 grams of sugar in it. 2end its a bad in fluence on younger kids. And 3rd its REALLY unhealthy. I'm starting to worry about him. Hes even madder than usual. I know beer does that but when he drinks alot of liquid things are very real when he gets mad. He even told me 2 shut up! Now dont get wrong but i've known him since 5th grade! That was a long time ago! Can you help me? And thanks for listening. Your very helpful.

my best friends are mainly guys, there are a few that i dont know if they know that they are giving maybe mixed signals to me and that may sometimes make me believe they like me. Is there a way that i can tell if they just wanna be friends or if they like me? And how can i confront him about it?

Tuesday, Jan 27, 2009 - 10:43:27 AM
Well, I've been in a long distance relationship with this guy who lives in England, and we have known each other for five months now. Everything so far has been going well but lately it seems as if things have taken a strange little nose dive... Two Saturdays ago, I added one of his friends as one of mine on Facebook, and a few days later, this friend said that the guy wasn't that happy about it and that he was very jealous. Last Friday, the guy himself told me that his friend was just joking, which could be true because the friend is a sort of jokey person (he's also joked about the guy being gay). But on the same day, he added two more people as friends, and they happened to be girls. For the past few days, they've been writing on each others' Walls while I've written on his and he has yet to write on mine. I'm not against guys I like having female friends, but if there is a girl they're romantically interested in, I don't think the female friend should be the first priority of the guy. Also, I asked him if he trusted me, and the question bothered him. He said "Please just stop asking stupid questions." What does that mean, exactly?

Hi Dawson, How does a guy politely say he is not attracted to a girl? She may be nice, well grounded spiritually, and a great future wife, but when there is no physical attraction, how should that be communicated to the girl? Thank you.

hey dawson..i listen to your station thingy alot and this is my first time on your wesite. this isn't really an opposite sex question, but i really need advice. so..i'm 13 and i have an 18 year old boyfreind i met on line. i know...you think i'm stupid. but we've been together for 6 months and about 3 weeks. we really love each other. please don't judge either of us because you don't know our bond. but like...he quit drugs for me and you can honestly tell he loves me. we talk on the phone everyday and sometimes go on web-cam. and like..i really love him. i would die the most painful death for him. and i trust him with my life. he almost died because of me. and he really loves me. he might come down to visit me this summer. but like..we've talked about getting married and i want to marry him and stuff, but he wants to go in the army. i don't want him to get hurt, but i want him to have a good job too. and he doesn't want to go to college. well, he lives in pennsylvania and his life is always on the line. he's in the hospital alot. and like..one time, he was doing pills and he popped 20 of them and hhe called me and was scared that he was going to die and he wanted the last words to come out of his mouth to be i love you. that was forever ago..but i still worry. i live with my aunt and she knows about him, but only that he's 18, and he lives in pennsylvania. i'm afraid that if i tell my family about him, they'll press charges. i used to cut myself before i met him, but stopped when i found out i loved him. and i did cut again a while ago, but then i found God. i was babtised on Christmas eve and i love God so much. i look to him for advice usually, but i feel he's leading me to you. i just want advice on if i should worry as much as i do and if i should tell my family about him? i'm really confused. please e-mail me back.

Hi, I have a question. I have been dating this guy for 3 months or so and it seems we are both still a bit standoffish towards each other. Our relationship is a bit complicated. He works a lot during the week and I am a single mom with a 17 month old who lives with my mom while I go to school. We are both getting older, I am almost 28 and he is 31, so I guess the only thing that is concerning me is I am afraid he will leave me because we don't spend much time together and I wont be ready to settle down and have another child for at least 3 or 4 years, when I graduate. I know he is ready to settle..obviously not particularly with me since we are still new, but with anyone. Think I have a good reason to be paranoid?

I have this guy who has been my best friend for almost 4 years. During that time he really fell in love with me. I do not feel the same for him. I have hurt him alot over the years because of the feelings we have for each other. well he has ended up breaking up with 2 girls for me... now we are dating. I really want out of this relationship, but i dont know how to do it! we havent ever had sex or done anything intamate. we barely even kiss. i mean he is an amazing friend, but he is just that- nothing more. it is hurting me staying in the relationship, but it will hurt me to see him hurt over the break up. i am not even sure if he will want me back as a friend- i have hurt him that much. i really dont know what to say or what to do! if you would, please email me back! thanks Mr. McAllister!

Dear Dawson, I have a question. My ex-bf and i dated for about three months than we got into a fight and broke up. By the time of next year we were still fighting. Then in November we worked it all out. We were regular friends. Then last night I was my talking to one of my other friends that I know I could trust anytime. So when i was talking to her about my ex-bf 'cause hes been acting strange lately. She sits by him everyday at lunch 'cause her friends sit there. She told me that he hates to be single and is trying to drunk on fruit juice that has 40 grams of sugar in each little cup and thats really unhealthy! So I talked to him today about it and he said if i was going to judge him on what he drinks that i should shut up. I tell from time to time that i care for all my friends and that hes really worrying me. So we got into another fight. I was wondering why dont guys just understand that us girls just wanna help them? -jessica

Hey Dawson! I have a question for you... My best friend is a guy, and I am sooo thankful for him. We've been best friends for 9 years, and we are both graduating now. Our career paths are carying us both in opposite directions, but we half-jokingly made a pact that if neither of us are married by the time we are 30 we will marry each other. I've heard of other people doing this, so I was wondering... Do you think this kind of "Marriage Pact" is actually an okay thing to do if you are really close friends with someone of the opposite sex?

Hey Dawson! There is this guy who is one of my best friends. He likes to listen I voice my opinions(which is a lot...), he'll listen to what I think and infer about current world issues and just random things I observe in life. He tells me he can't even fathom how much is going through my head in one minute, haha. Yet he is entirely chill, he doesn't talk much, just listens to most people, and he is the type who just trusts God and doesn't worry. I believe this is one of the reasons him and I are such good friends, we seem to be direct opposites, even though him and I prefer to be "Just friends", is it true in pre-marital relationships that "Opposites Attract"?
- Emily

Sunday, Jan 25, 2009 - 1:49:02 PM
in the different view of one of your questions it seems to me that most girls i know throw me in that best friend spot every time. even when i want more and there is a connection it never works.i always wonder why?, but then i think its probably because im that security blanket they can run to when they let everyone walk all over them. this brings in jealousy and i dont know why. i guess this is because i want them as more than a friend?, yet i understand im not and i should value what i have.

Hi Dawson, i love your show, and i have wanted to call you for quite some time. i have guy problems, as most do, but im just trying to find out why guys that im 'talking to' never want to commit or put a label on our relationship. every single guy that i have gotten to know very well, they act like they like me and want to be something, but they never do. sometimes they say they dont want a girlfriend or i get played or it doesnt work out for reasons i dont really know. im just tired of being a girl they call when its convienent for them and they dont see that i care about them and wish they felt the same. people i know dont understand why i cant get a boyfriend because im nice to everybody i meet, and go out of my way for people. everyone i know always tells me how gorgeous i am and whatnot, but im convinced im not good enough, my history with guys proves it. i have only guy friends because i dont like most girls. but im tired of them only seeing me as a friend or even worse, a booty call. i just dont know what to do, im not really looking for a relationship because they always end badly and i dont want to get my heart broken... again. is there anything i can do to make a guy see that it might not be so bad with me?

i love your show on the radio, Dawson! Its really nice how you take two full hours out of your day to help everyday people. I have a question about the opposite gender. My ex-boyfriend and i are great friends but he is always asking me to be his girlfriend again. If it didnt work out the first time why does he think it will work out a second time? I dont want to jump into a relationship like i did the first time he asked me. What does it mean if he asks me again? Does it mean that he thinks were ready to be B.F.-G.F. again or what? Can you help me? -anonymous

My recently X gf always said she was 50/50 on her desire to be with me. one minute she wants me for life nex she would talk to someone else. I was with her a year and a half and she was up and then bout every 5 months down, just like her mood. She said I didn't understand and didn't have a good bond with her, but idk what more she wants!? I shared so much with her and nothings enough. i am in the process of letting her go, but I will always love her.

There's this guy who likes me quote, "a heck of a lot." I'm a freshman in high school and have no intention of dating until I'm looking for a husband. I told him this, and he took it pretty well, but he still talks to me as though if he tries hard enough I'll date him. He's three years older than me, which feels like a HUGE gap. Three years isn't so big when you're say, 24 and 27, but 14 an 17 feels really far apart. Why is this guy still chasing me? I've told him no a total of... 3, maybe 4 times that I /don't date/. And yet he still says stuff like "you're so beautiful...I really like talking to you...I just want to see you...etc." Worst of all is his persistent self-pity. He's always saying stuff like "Not that you would care, but..." or "No one would care if I died" or "I have no friends." I just don't understand why he still treats me like this when he knows I don't date. He even knows I like another guy, and he's STILL talking to me like this. Sorry if this sounds like I'm on a rampage, but it's bugging the crud out of me. Help! How do I get rid of him without hurting him???
