How do I know if I (16 F) love him (16 M)
So, I’m honestly having a hard time figuring out how to feel about writing this post.
I’ve (16F) been dating this guy (16M) for about a year, and he’s my (third?) boyfriend- none prior were serious) and my first kiss. I’m a bit nervous because I’m not sure if I love him. I think about him a lot, and I really enjoy being close to him and talking to him. He’s honestly the sweetest guy I’ve ever met and I love spending time with him.
But here’s the thing: I had my first kiss, and I didn’t feel anything at all. I don’t really know if I am supposed to?? After it, he hugged me, which I felt a little happy about. I’m not sure if it was just the pressure and nerves getting to me, but I also don’t have anything to compare it to. He had been hinting at it, and it did feel a little forced (his intentions were good).
I also can’t tell if it’s just because I’ve been having some mental issues lately, and I’m finding it hard to feel a lot of emotions (I’m getting help soon).
Any thoughts or help would be great! I’m really not sure how to tell. I don’t really know if this classifies as relationship advice or just in general guidance but any helps appreciated! 😭
