okay well this is kind of a ranty post but there is a point i swear...
well i went away to whistler from friday to sunday with my best guy friend and his family...now we're nothing more than that and i have a boyfriend...
so anyways, i'm really close with this guy and yeah so i hug him a lot and whatnot but that's normal...and on the way home in the car i was sleeping and leaning on him. thats not that bad is it? and we went to the hot tub at the hotel together alone (like just us 2)...and duh we didn't do anything bad. and we're both 16 btw. and we're asian.
anyways, when we got home we were chatting and he said his mom was mad but wouldn't say why...eventually she did. she thought we were too "close" (for ex. the leaning in the car, hot tub) and according to him her view of me has "changed". crap. what the eff...how awkward is that.
what would you do in this situation? he's going to talk to her tomorrow he said when he gives her the thank you card from me (my mom told me to give them one and yeah thats understandable since they took me with them) so yeah i hope he fixes it but still...he didn't say it but i understand what she's thinking - his mom thinks i'm a ho. _dry.gif
opinions? what would you do? etc...

sorry its long. but yeah. this is kinda upsetting...i thought she liked me.
well she did. but yeah. bleah. sad.gif

sadly...your guy friend's mom will probably never really change her opinion of you, she may rethink it because of your thank you letter and your guy friend's explanation, but in the back of her mind she'll still believe what she believes, most people are like that. i think K!$$ is right, his mom doesn't want her baby boy's heart to be broken.

my parents didn't allow me to have guy friends when i was a little younger because my dad believed (and still does ermm.gif ) that someday my guy friend will be my boyfriend. i think that parents want to shelter their children from the opposite sex because they think that it's inevitable that attraction will occur, they don't believe that a guy and a girl can just be friends. in all my experiences, i can never have a close guy friend, i always end up liking them...so my parents were right about me. but you can probably handle having a close guy friend because from what i understand, you've been friends for a long time. the thing with you being in the hot tub alone with him is probably pretty disrespectful in her mind because you're both young and already really close...plus you have a boyfriend so to her that may seem slutty...

since she knows that he cares a lot about you and you already have someone, she probably doesn't want you to lead him on...

but anyway, i wish you good luck, you're a pretty cool person, you don't need this sh*t in your life flowers.gif
