Dear John,
I just started going out with this guy that i think i might like but i dont think i do.....See, i liked him before we started going out and we hung out a lot and i was trying to get him to like me, then finally he asked me out and i was so happy! over time it seemed like we just did the same thing every day, hang out and talk at lunch, and we were going no where, it was really boring. and now we have been going out for a week and i dont think i liked him, i dont know if it is because he is shy and he hasnt opened up yet and then he will be fun to hang out with or i really just dont like him and there is no spark. the only problem is that i pretty much cant break up with him, i broke up with my last boyfriend after 5 days and i will be doing the same thing! ill get a reputation of only wanting to date someone for less than a week then im done! i CANT break up with him! so what do i do??? do i just wait for it to get better? do i break up with him? i am also afraid to tell my friends about it, incase it does get better. this sucks! what do i do???

Sometimes you're attracted to someone physically, but once you get to know their personality, you realize there's just not a connection. In the adult world, that's why there are often no second dates. Young people are impulsive and tend to jump into things and start dating every person they fall in love with. Don't beat yourself up over it. Try to think things through a little better in the future, and take things slower, but I wouldn't worry about breaking up after a short time. You shouldn't drag things out, because that's not fair to the guy. If your friends give you a hard time, just tell them you couldn't see hanging onto something that wasn't working, and life is just like that sometimes.
