Mom’s Opinion and Sex (Big Sister)

How do I let my mom know that I honestly love my boyfriend? I'm 15 and girls my age can be really stupid about relationships, but I can say with all my heart that we love each other and I know it. My mom probably doesn't take us seriously and it really bothers me. Also he and I have been talking about having sex and we are ready to, but I have no idea how to tell her that. She told me that she'd like to know if I was thinking about it and I feel like I really should.amanda says...
What makes you think your mom doesn't take you seriously? If there is something specific that she is doing that really bothers you, then you should sit her down and let her know how you feel and why you feel that way. With regard to sex, you should definitely make sure you feel ready for this and if you and your mom have an open relationship, then you can talk to her about it. A lot of people have questions when it comes to their first time. Your mom will probably appreciate your honesty as well. With regard to the serious part of your question: when I was 15 I had been dating my boyfriend for a year and I also thought that I was truly in love and that he was *the one*. We dated for a total of three and a half years. Now, at the age of 21, I am in another serious relationship and realized that yes, I did love my ex-boyfriend, but it was the most I could possibly love him at the age of 15. The love I have for my current boyfriend is different. As you grow older, you will find that there are changes within yourself and your relationship, no matter how much you love the person. Sometimes those changes bring you closer together and sometimes it forces you to grow apart. So, I'm not saying you won't be with your boyfriend forever, but your mom probably realizes there's a chance your relationship might not be your only one. Maybe she's scared of how you will react *if* you guys do break up. Try to talk to her and make sure you try to realize where she is coming from as well.Tags: sex, boyfriend, relationship, serious, mom
Trust From Mom (Big Sister)

I went out with this guy and ended up coming home with a small hickey on my neck. Though I thought I had covered it up, I guess I didn't do it good enough because my mom saw it!! Embarrassing, much?? So, I want to go out with this guy again, but I need a way to reassure my mom that I still have my values and have gone no further than kissing. Even though I've told her, I don't feel like she believes me. How can I get her to not be upset when I say I'm going out with him again?amanda says...
Well the fact that you've told her is the first step. Now, you just need to prove it. Don't come home with hickeys anymore, especially if you know your mom is tight about that stuff. You can also have a heart-to-heart and tell her that you trust her and would tell her when you were ready to be taking the next step with a guy. Now, I'm not saying you need to do that. I didn't have that kind of relationship with my mom at first, but it all depends on your comfort level and what you want to share with her. But, at the end of the day, just enjoy your time with this boy. If you are too up in your head about what your mom thinks, then you might miss out on a good thing.Mothers In Dreaming (Sweet Dreams)
Embarr, 22 from Arizona writes...
It's that time of the year again when we all celebrate the special women in our lives on Mother's Day. Mothers are important to many of us and the same can be said about the ones that appear in our dreams.
Let's go over a few meanings for motherly figures in dreams.
The keywords that first come to mind are nurturing, comforting and loving. If you dream of your mother, or even any woman that is portrayed as a mother figure in your dream, this is usually a good sign. It all depends on what emotions you feel at the time, but as most people tend to have feelings of comfort in connection to their mother it's very likely to be the same in dreaming.
If your mom is trying to tell you something in the dream, it's best that you listen. What she has to say is probably just as important as the symbolism behind her image in dreaming. In this situation, a mother can be a guiding figure as much as a comforting one.
If harm comes to a mom in your dream, this can mean ill things for you. Basically, your comfort is being harmed (pretty simple metaphor) and this could be a warning that something in your waking life is causing harm that you're not getting reassurance and support for. If the mother figure is the one causing harm in the dream, this may hold more ominous meaning. It could mean that you feel like you're being attacked in your own life by a mother figure -- mentally or otherwise -- or that what you once found to be comforting is no longer so.
Keep all of these in mind the next time you have a dream with a mother figure in it. Happy Mother's Day!
