SUPER SIS
Dear Super Sis,
I am a 15-year-old boy. Last year I met a girl and felt attached to her. But a few weeks back she mailed me saying good bye. She says she has made a new friend and does not want to continue our friendship. I still love her very much. What should I do now?
Disturbed
I feel sorry for you but if someone is not ready to continue with the relationship you cannot force her to do so. She seems to be of an inconsistent nature or perhaps she thinks it is too early in life to be serious about a serious relationship.
I would say that you should try to forget her and busy yourself in your studies. You are too young to fall in love — what you are feeling is a crush, an infatuation, which will pass with time. You have a long way to go and a whole life to live. You will, in time, meet someone who is really sincere with you and then you can think about settling permanently with her. For the present you have better things to do. So cheer up.
Dear Super Sis,
Due to a misunderstanding in school a guy began to think that I like him. The more I ignore him the more he stares at me. The misunderstanding was caused by my friends. I am in grade nine but he is not in my section. Please tell me what should I do?
A confused Taurean.
It is a sad fact that such misunderstandings often take place in institutions where boys and girls study together. It is often the result of some involuntary action on your part or a joke or prank played by some friends who fail to realize the consequences of such actions. Since this fellow is not in your section it is easy for you to ignore him — let him stare if he likes, but through your actions make it clear that you are not interested. One day he will get the message through. If his staring persists and you think it is reflecting on your reputation ask your friends, who created the misunderstanding, to tell him the fact. If he still doesn’t mend his ways seek your parents’ or teachers’ help.
