Dear Queenie,
I was going with this boy since last year and I love him so much, but he broke up with me a couple of weeks ago. I still see him at school and we’re still friends and I just can’t stop thinking about him.
I know if I tried I could get him to have sex with me even if we’re not a couple anymore and I keep thinking what it would be like to have his baby.
Queenie, how do I get over him?—Lovesick teenager
Dear Teenager,
Talk to you mother or some other adult you trust about your feelings. Venting them will help you get over your loss. Avoid your EX-boyfriend as much as you can and find activities that will keep you busy and away from him as much as possible.
Whatever you do, DO NOT have sex with him or try to get pregnant. Doing so would be more likely to drive him away than bring him closer and it would forever change your life negatively. You are not in a position right now to provide for a baby and you might not even be able to finish your education, which you would regret for the rest of your life.
