Hi there… How’s it going? Probably not all that great or you wouldn’t be here looking for help. Well, you’ve come to the right place. Teens have been writing to me since 1997 because they know I give good advice. If you’ve got a problem with friends, so-called friends, a bf/gf, a parent, or anything else that’s confusing… email me. I can help you sort out your feelings. No matter what’s going on, you always have choices. Some choices make things worse. You don’t want to go there. Instead, let me help you figure out your next best move.
In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

Two sides of the story
December 29, 2011
Before I watched the sunset it was a normal Wednesday. David and I ate oatmeal and read the paper. I went on poop patrol in the yard. Drove to Spanish class. Filled up the car. And answered this email from a desperate teen:
Hey Terra,
I can't take it much longer. I like this boy and he has known for about 1 week now. We've known each other since 2nd grade. I hate when he dates other people but mostly this one girl and he's dating her again! He said he does things he don't want to for her and she put him through hell last time. I hate this cause if it happens again I'm going to be hurting because I love him so much. What do I do?
Desperately in Love
I wrote back:
Dear D in L,
I understand that you love this guy and you're very upset when he's "put through hell" by his girlfriend. But there are two sides to this story. Let me tell you about the other one.
Nobody is forcing the boy to date this girl.

“My father hits me every chance he gets.”Hey Terra, My parents are fighting constantly. They wake me up at 2AM because they are screaming at each other in their room! My father hits me every chance he gets but he always apologized afterwards. I am not worried about my health but I am worried about my little brother and the emotional pain he is suffering. I am too scared to tell anybody about this because I'm afraid of my dad. What should I do? Clarissa |
“My boyfriend thinks I've been with other guys.”Hey Terra, My boyfriend sometimes gets mad because when we have sexual intercourse sometimes my vagina is more open and sometimes it's more tight. He thinks that I have been with other guys and that that is the reason why I am open like that. I know I haven't been with any other guys so can you please explain to me why this happens? Curious |
